I was watching the stream and as they went to a break about 15mins ago it showed crawley home to chelsea/everton... wierd.

 

[belfast_bomber]

That was the practice run which they obviously don't do in Ireland.

Villa will be tough if we make it through, bit good that we're at home. Just had a look, Bent is cup tied which would make me much more confident.

Get past County first though.

 

[cannons]

Can't really complain about Arsenal's draw.

 

[Ray Nolan]

Sheffield Wednesday at home. Can't complain about that.

Terrible draw for Aston Villa. Just terrible.

If you exchange us in the place of any other Premier League side in the draw, then we’re better off.
Quite easily we’ve got the most difficult tie out of the Premier League sides. Really sucks because as I said, give us the draw of any of the other PL sides and we’d be in the last 8.

Getting City away means that it’s very unlikely. A shame but oh well. Hopefully Chelsea take care of Everton and then it will be almost a sure thing that they, and Arsenal will be in the last 8, along with City to make it very difficult for United to win the thing.

Up the Villa but **** the draw.

Usually, no matter how big or unpopular the team, non-league will get behind one of their own in the FA Cup. That many non-league fans would rather the corporate might of Manchester United crushed Crawley in the competition speaks volumes about their standing within the game.

Carew puts Stoke 1-nil up against Brighton while Birmingham are 2-nil up against Wednesday Sheffield, Martins has a goal.

Wesley Brown scores

Wesley Brown scores

...and settles a few nerves for Man U fans no doubt. Crawley were creating some chances before the goal.

 

[A Bit High]

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ boring performance!

 

[belfast_bomber]

Thank Christ that's over. Was always going to be the grandmother of all banana skins. Was watching through my fingers for most of it. Bloody horrible.

 

[gaelictiogar]

Well done Everton. A great club in need of the boost of a cup run and who wanted to see yet another Chelsea trip to Wembley?

 

[meh]

Who was United's keeper? Never heard of the bloke.

Some pretty ordinary 'simulation' going on, Fabio's dive was disgusting, but the Crawley blokes dive wasn't much better.

9,000 travelling fans, wonder how many of them will travel to Crawley's next away match?

 

[Crimson King]

Anders Lindegaard.

We bought him in January.

 

[Coledinho]

Wake me up when the Semi Finals are on.
