FA Cup 2024/25

[Conker]

Better side in the first half albeit without creating much at all, now find ourselves 1-0 from that Norwegian fella I rate.

Bowery lost the ball then lost his man in the box, but it was a good header.

 

[Conker]

2-0 now a really good solo goal by Aasguard, no complaints with that one, just a good quality goal.

Been below par this second half, missing Deji in defence.

All our fans want to sign Thierry Small after his performance against us tonight.

 

[Stocky]

Only 4 and a half thousand at Mansfield tonight for a FA Cup 3rd round match with Premier League opposition awaiting in Round Four.

The Mozambique stags will be devastated at that result.

1-1 st half time. Fair reflection; Derby have edged it on general performance and we’ve edged it on chances. All to play for in the battle of Who Wants To Lose 6-0 To Man City’s Reserves.

Happy now??

You might have a chance in the next round, City couldn't beat Brentford who are a disgrace for what they did in round 3.

Well done Orient. Good luck against Peps lot next round.

No home game in February for us as a result (pending rearranged date)

More than I thought would bother all considered.

I watched it in Australia on Optus Sports with a jar of lager.

That Mansfield crowd is fine isn't it? No one gives a shite about the cup, especially midweek, we only had 7,700 on.

You've probably made Round four a fair few times considering you more often than not enter at the third round stage.

I'd be interested to know how many times Mansfield have made the 4th round in the last 20 years. Just thought they may be a few more there, they're usually quite well supported.

 

[Super_horns]

Well done Orient - good luck in the next round but nice to get a big one.

 

[Conker]

We sold more tickets than what was in attendance today on an update from Monday 6th so obviously been quite a lot of refunds (including from Wigan who sold around 700 for the original date and only took 300 tonight)

Can only presume you’ve forgotten this is a rearranged fixture with a couple of days notice, Wigan at home is a stinker of a tie and nobody cared about playing in the 4th round, it’s all about the opposition not the round. Little bit of backlash from the pricing too which was justified.

The fact I couldn’t be arsed to attend says a lot, I think it’s fair to say I’m a pretty devout fan….

Saturday is sold out like pretty much every league game is nowadays.

Ended up on a whimper really, funnily enough we played much worse at Wigan in the league and won 2-1.

Came across very flat on the telly, from the players and fans, Clough did rotate a fair bit too.

I think Aasguard may well end up in the championship before this transfer window ends. Definitely be at that level by the summer you’d imagine.

I just want to get a better result than Salford. Great tie, mind, especially since our last good draw (Spurs at home in the league cup) got stolen from us by COVID.

We should both be on t’telly which will mean bollocks kick off times.

 

[The Terminator]

Every single one of our players tonight gave everything to earn a crack at Man City, we had players going off injured, getting sent off for making tired last ditch tackles, players blowing out of their arse and next to no attacking options on the bench.

Fuck knows if we'll be able to put a proper side out Saturday, Wellens said had the game been played on Saturday a few more wouldn't have played due to illness and Jack Currie was able to play too.

Very little in the game, Derby the better side second half and extra time as you'd expect and had chances to win the game. Luck was on our side tonight.

I could not be prouder of that squad of players tonight, every dog has its day and we will make sure we have ours against City.

The trains to Chester and Crewe were up the spout that weekend, was going to take me 4 hours to get to Wrexham General and back on the train, so I am pleased to be avoiding it!
