    Some fans will be glad to be out of the Country tonight.

    I m not going to laugh too soon. We ve got the Mighty Seagulls tomorrow, but reckon it might be sometime before the bitching starts between Stevo and City boy :D

    Did not the Special one himself say it would be a Disgrace if Chelsea lost to Bradford before today's Game.

    I'm here :)

    Chelsea's humbling by Bradford has been more than made up for by Boro tonking City 2-0 :mrgreen: UTFB :lol:

    My God Stevo. Finding a silver lining in that Disgrace!!! Well have City boy on next proclaiming himself a Cambridge Fan! Still at least you came out as a Smoggy before the result.

    Reckon you were both keeping your powder dry for the 31st

    Hows the Piste?

    At least Chelsea played their reserves. City had virtually a full strength side out :oops:

    Having read the comments on the City forum, Boro thoroughly deserved their win and apparently if they had scored 4 or 5, it would have been a fair result.

    Problems at City this season and Pellegrini needs to sort them out quickly or he'll be looking for a job in Summer :(

    Congrats to Boro and Bradford.

    Would rather Bolton, or (more realistically) Arsenal win the cup. Anyone but the Scum or the Scousers.
    Statistically, 6 out of 7 dwarves are not happy.

    Sad that you have nothing better to do.

    Man City, Chelsea, Southampton and Spurs all not arsed about winning the FA Cup this year? :lol:

    There I was thinking a 0-0 draw with Cambridge was a bad result! At least we're still in the thing.

    Manchester United are after all the most prolific winners of the FA Cup. Today shows us why, again.

    Liverpool have got a tough rematch away at Bolton after only drawing 0-0 at Anfield, that looks quite promising to me as a Manc. I can't see Arsenal not winning tomorrow but you never know. I don't mind Arsenal being in the cup its Liverpool that needs to go.

    Manchester United Vs Arsenal final?

    Bolton taking Liverpool to a replay? This has shades of 1993. 8) :D

    They should never have sacked Roy Evans, it was a long time ago I know but, thats when they went from consistently finishing 2nd/3rd/4th, to not doing. Liverpool were too greedy sacking him IMO. They sacked him because he hadn't won them the league, but I think he was building to it and would have done.

    For sure, He's blazing a trail with the national Team. IMO they should have kept Ronnie Moran :!:

    There'll be plenty of handbag swinging next weekend :)

    All this talk about the quadruple was boll0x, was never going to happen. The PL and the CL are the most important, anything else is a bonus. Trying to fight too many other competitions was going to hurt form.

    Piste is excellent, its been snowing today so pretty much had the place to ourselves and loafs of powder. Awesome 8)

    When the likes of Bradford, Cambridge United and Boro make a mockery of 'top flight' teams, it makes you wonder how much of the Premiership is all marketing, hype, feather and fluff.

    Oh, I stopped wondering quite a few years ago.
    Money can buy enough quality that in the long run, the richest clubs will win.
    In fact, FIFA and UEFA are set up in such a way to precisely achieve that goal, but they flatter to deceive.

    Bring on the Boro. Suppose you ve got two legitimate reasons to support them in the cup now Stevo.

    Especially with no Chelsea interest. For once we can believe a managers when they say they d rather concentrate on the league.

    Conspiracy theory? :lol:

    Sounds like something I would say except this is about FIFA as opposed to people running the world (into the ground).

    It's a shame they can't charge Boreinho with being a classless pr1ck!
    I don't care what they win, I'm genuinely glad he's not our manager. The guy is a total embarrassment. :oops:
