FA Cup 2016-17

Seems lack of humanity towards
hillsborough victims isn't limited to Man Utd fans.

I've been to plenty of post- Hillborough Liverpool games and they havent been adverse to a few Munich, Munich 58 chants. Every fanbase has its bellends, Liverpools included.

Wasnt specifically talking about Hillsborough, more in general. Your response kind of proves my point.

Well given that people from Merseyside have banned the Sun due to Hillsborough there's a pretty direct link.

Big fat goddam congratulations to Lincoln City so far, from every fan right down to their Twitter bloke who seems to have blocked me despite us never interacting.

People get cynical over the Cup when there are few upsets. Then when there are upsets, it's because the larger clubs are not taking the competition seriously anymore, and cynicism prevails anyway. But to beat Oldham, Ipswich twice, Brighton and then Burnley, is one of the best Cup runs we'll see. And if anyone disagrees, then they can fuck off back to where they came from. (That is the correct terminology these days, isn't it?)[/QUOTE

Nah no better than the Mariners run to the Trophy final last season, only to lose to tinpot Halifax when we got there - which would have been like Lincoln losing to Sutton...now who did we beat on our way to Wembley, can someone remind me...

Are Lincoln still in the Trophy?

 

[gijsbert_bos]

Yes, we're still in the Trophy. Boreham on Saturday.

Given that the sun were sponsoring Sutton and they were offering 8/1 on it happening it wouldnt suprise me if they paid him or the club to eat that pie/pasty as a publicity stunt.

Yep. Almost certainly.
BBC - The Gambling Commission says it is investigating whether there was a breach of betting regulations during Arsenal's FA Cup win over Sutton on Monday.

Regarding the game, all credit to Sutton. Enjoyed watching that, gutted that Deacon shot didn't go in, cue SCENES.

 

[CrazyImp]

Cannot afford a draw on Saturday, we have enough games as it is - we may be at a Tuesday-Thursday-Saturday stage soon. Win the tie in one attempt please.

 

[Mark kavanagh]

Scousers are usually desperate to be offended by something.

Or we stand up for what we believe in and don't just go away when the establishment tells us to

As well as turning a blind eye or attempting to justify anything one of your own does wrong.

If anything dodgy has gone on, I hope they throw the book at him. He wouldn't be so "jolly" then, the fat c*nt. Stunts like that make this league look like a laughing stock.

Other then that, Sutton showed up very well, their fitness levels were good and they were a bit unlucky not to score. Thought our old boy Jamie Collins was immense, should have made better use of him, cracking player.

 

[DontBringBertie]

Such as?

Heysel
Suarez racism
Munich chants
Suarez biting
Fighting at the Europa League final

To name a few.

 

[Chris FGR]

None of that excuses what The Sun did though.

A twist in the tale. Wayne Shaw tells @BBCWorldatOne it was a pasty and not a pie. All bets are off?

Jamie Collins is the man. Proper leader, and a nice guy

 

[Chris FGR]

Yep, top man.

Talking of our ex players how are Ben Jefford and Matt Tubbs doing?

 

[DarkSithLord]

And what happened to Dan Wishart?

 

[Chris FGR]

Sutton United player Chris

Whats happened to Dan Wishart mate? I see he is no longer listed on your website as part of the squad?

 

[Luke Imp]

He signed for FGR at the beginning of October...

 

[GodsGift]

Wayne Shaw has resigned...

 

[PaulHaddock]

I love a happy ending.

 

[Luke Imp]

Don't we all.

 

[DarkSithLord]

Of course he did! Slipped my mind.Sorry! Dont mind me

 

[Gashead]

Wayne Shaw has resigned...

Collude with those bastards..

The Sun stuff has definitely dampened the Sutton story (which was fantastic and didn't require that rag in the first place)

I love Wayne but he let the club down big time last night on a number of levels

 

[appletablepenny]

Guy's lost his job, I don't see any happy ending here.

 

[Master D]

Dodgy and tinpot.

 

[CrazyImp]

Had to happen. Hopefully Sutton United have learnt many lessons here, soured the entire run.

 

[Monkey Tennis]

Making a great community event all about him for the sake of a back-hander is a pretty shameful thing to do. Sounds like a proper twat anyway.
