Posted February 14, 2014 Don't think Fulham were too bright in sacking Meulensteen. I'd say they're goners now. 2 managers sacked in the space of a few months. They were unlucky in their last couple of games against United and Liverpool. A draw against United, although maybe that is seen as bad nowadays and weren't disgraced against Liverpool, only losing to a penalty in injury time. They should never have removed that Michael Jackson statue. They've been cursed ever since. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 15, 2014 Apparently the new guy is the first ever German manager in the Premier League? That's incredible, if true! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 16, 2014 $h1te! I just missed the F.A Cup draw. Google to the rescue. Also, @Blade not going well so far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 16, 2014 Fair play to Arsenal. Glad we made a game of it and made chances but you've got to take them, for some reaon we're just not as clinical away from home. Sounded like a good game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 16, 2014 Much better. Glad to see The Ox and Podolski get a goal a piece. Just been looking at our fixtures, and if we can beat Bayern over two legs, we've got an even tougher run of fixtures coming up in March. This will be the making or breaking of this team.

Posted February 16, 2014 It was a good game. Proper FA Cup tie. Wenger had his eye on the Bayern match no doubt but he still put out a strong team, but more importantly Arsenal actually played today, they worked together as a unit and were able to get the all important win at the end. Liverpool made a game of it but they did waste some of the chances. Sturrudge had some good chances. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know, he was lucky to stay on the pitch. Is he seriously considered the best we have? Christ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 16, 2014 Howard Webb is fucking terrible. We played well and unlucky not to get a result. Haven't seen the second pen shout but everyone is saying it was nailed on. How Webb hasn't given it, or the one at Chelsea, I don't know. I think the reason he's considered a good ref is because he doesn't take any guff, and is confidently wrong. He's far from perfect.

Posted February 16, 2014 Echo the sentiments on Webb. So inconsistent towards both sides it was laughable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh well, we get to focus on nothing but the league now. Strongest 11 in every game and no need for any rests. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 16, 2014 (edited) From putting 5 against us to complaining about the ref. Something went wrong there Brendan.. Thoroughly enjoyed that today. Except the scouse twats singing and clapping through the minutes silence for Sir Tom Finney. Edit - The penalty decision no Scouser is talking about..

Posted February 16, 2014 I'm absolutely buzzing after today's match. A shitty League 1 club like ours at the Quarter Finals of the FA Cup! Brilliant :bouncy: A couple of badly taken photos at full time! I was shaking that much with adrenaline! 25k attendance which isn't too shabby either! I thought of all the teams that we have faced so far in this cup run that Forest were the ones to beat us. We have been in from Round 1 (there's no 3rd round automatic below Championship level) and beaten 2 Prem teams and a Championship team. Next round could be Wednesday at the lane! The thought of it is making me feel sick already! Anyway normal service resumes this wednesday when we face Gillingham away....the joys! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 18, 2014 Wish I wasn't working tonight, reckon the Man City v Barca match has goals galore written all over it. Watch it end 0-0. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 18, 2014 (edited) Was a very comfortable game for Barcelona. They dictated the entire pace of the game and never went beyond second gear. It could've been 4 or even 5-0. You tell em, Cesc! Edited February 18, 2014 by -Dem0- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 19, 2014 Yes shut up Moaninho! Worry about your own team and as Roy said earlier in the night if Chelsea have to play Barca in the next round, we'll see how quick he is to say they are "the worst Barcelona of many, many years". Maybe he likes egg on his face. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
