Telly Thread January 5-11

[Gangster Octopus]

Crikey. Three.

[Satchmo Distel]

Barnsley 1-0 up. Header by big Polish defender Helik (6′ 4″).

Have switched to Crawley v Leeds.

[Artificial Hipster]

Terrible keeping.

[fatbear]

Leeds defending is awful. Not that I am complaining !!

[Gangster Octopus]

Two now.

[Artificial Hipster]

Cracking finish to put Crawley 1 up.

[Artificial Hipster]

I've got half an eye on Crawley v Leeds but only because the final score type show with goals as they go in doesn't seem to be on today.

[Satchmo Distel]

Anyone watching any of the six FA Cup games in progress? I have no TV coverage here. Five Live are doing Crawley v Leeds.

Barnsley v Tranmere on Radio Sheffield:

I agree that all future threads should be "Telly and Wireless Thread" (Snake?)

[Artificial Hipster]

Yeah but where's the tap dancing dog?

[EIM]

Man United v Watford proving as worthy of its prime time slot as you'd expect.

I dunno. It's no different to prime time staples like X Factor or Britain's Got Talent. A few characters with genuine talent, a load of fuck all we'll never hear of again, and a few you suspect have been selected solely because they're rubbish, and we live in a cruel society that sees that as entertainment.

[Satchmo Distel]

Fuck the BRCs for pressuring the FA to get rid of replays.

[Patrick Thistle]

Chorley looked pretty good in that game. Hope they get Liverpool in the next round.

[Jah Womble]

This probably the first time that we've ever played against a World Cup Golden Boot winner...

Marine may be able to say that tomorrow. (The probability being even higher.)

[Jah Womble]

2-1 Everton - and this time VAR doesn’t disallow it.

[Gangster Octopus]

More bugger...

[Ray de Galles]

Chorley go 2-0 up against Derby's kids. The match has, unsurprisingly, played out very much like when a league club enters it's development side in a County Cup.

[Gangster Octopus]

We deserved the replay. Oh, wait...

[Uncle Ethan]

Great VAR decision for GO. However, the still image they put the lines on seemed to show the ball was in motion so it was slightly after the ball had been kicked, not as it was played. There also appeared to be a defender's arm extending beyond Tosun. Does a defender's arm not count any more?

[Gangster Octopus]

I've always loved VAR!

[Gangster Octopus]

Bugger again.

[Toby Gymshorts]

Go 'ed, Rotherham.

[Gangster Octopus]

Yes!

[Jah Womble]

Rotherham deservedly level.
