Why do they put the cup draw on The fucking One Show these days?

Monday night cup draw is a nonsense. It should be cut to Graham Kelly at 5.55 on a Sunday night.

Making fans outside shake hands?

What the fuck is this shit?

Sheffield Wednesday v Notts County or Swansea
West Brom v Southampton
Chelsea v Hull City
Leicester v Sheffield United
Huddersfield or Birmingham v Manchester United
Millwall or Rochdale v Newport or Tottenham
Brighton v Coventry
Wigan v Manchester City

We haven't got to the quarter-finals in my lifetime so getting through would be great (even if it means making Wullie sad).

All 10 home teams wear blue or blue and white stripes. Reckon we might sneak onto BT again.

Because nobody in their right mind watches it otherwise.

We’ll be back tomorrow. Time to smash huddersfield.

Benfica officially lost any chance of the league tonight. Rotten season.

That Huddersfield cup game screams a Mourinho MELTDOWN!

Nothing on Sky again, useless pricks.

Love a fog match.

You can see the water rolling off the ball :drool: Old school. This would have been called off at the old place.

Liverpool's line-up would probably work better as a back 3 with Miler at right wingback.

'Virgil' on the bench is a vote of confidence.

He must be nackered after barely playing for 6 months.

"Arsenal haven't got their crisp passing game on yet" ignoring that 1) Arsenal haven't had crisp passing in 5 years. 2) The pitch is so wet the balls moving at about half the speed it should and bouncing weird.

Someone who wants to share a good stream of the Arsenal game?

Not the most original thought but I think Arsenal would be better off shooting more and passing less.

I was intrigued as to the Swansea advertisement hoarding and got more than I bargained for.

Lol. Agent cech.

Does Aubameyang realise he'll never play Champions League again?

I doubt there will be a worse game this season than this Huddersfield - Liverpool one. Huddersfield just want it over with, and Liverpool haven't created a clear cut chance all game.

Huddersfield just got a throw in 8 yards from the goal line. Here we go.

Straight to Karius.

It's ERUPTED into life now. I'm eating my words.

lol Arsenal.

Arsenal :harold:

Newcastle are going down. Too many teams have started to improve. Can't see us doing better than 3 of them.

Ironically these types of games are exactly why having someone like Giroud is great. Arsenal trying to pass the ball around in what is borderline a swamp is farcical to watch as the Swansea players could take basically crawl and still catch the ball.

Our game sounds exceptionally dire.

Carlos had a dream.

Promoted three on the fabled glass mountain now.

Hasn't he been constantly linked with China? I doubt he's that bothered.

All in on the wafer cup now for them though, which should be do-able. Is he allowed to play in that?

It is, indeed, looking bleak for the three teams that came up. Brighton desperately need something tomorrow night (and then a win against West Ham). Having said that, they'll probably stay up by beating Spurs, United and Liverpool in their last 4 games.

We've conceded more goals than West Brom. The banter era is back baybay.

I keep seeing this 'banter era' shite, what does it mean?

'Swansea stun Arsenal' is the BBC headline, as if it was 2004.

'We're all fucking normal mate.'

You have to hand it to Ty. Rest of the cunts are throwing women and children out of lifeboats, and he's still there conducting the band in his White Star Line beanie hat. Love you till the end.

:drool:

That's glorious.

Frustrating night last night for THE MIGHTY BLADES. Two points outside of the playoff zone now, which is a bit annoying.

THE MIGHTY BLADES

Props for the amount of carthorses you had on the pitch by the end of the game though.

Are you moving on to films now?

Real events, m8. Although I did chuck a pre-2000 song in there just for you.

Anyway for what it's worth, in terms of people who go on Arsenal Fan TV, it's a refreshing type of cuntery.

Titanic is a film Floyd, you div.

That's reminded me of some Yank news outlet headlining their coverage of the Costa Concordia sinking with 'REAL LIFE TITANIC!', so thank you.

Whatever it was, it's an elegant metaphor for Arsenal.

Actually maybe not, at least Titanic sunk pretty fast. Arsenal is more like a dementia patient slowly deteriorating into some sort of shit and piss-stained demise.

Is Cenk Tosun rubbish? I've not seen him yet but he's been dropped to the bench in favour of Niasse.

United's attack suddenly looks mega with 'Alexis' chucked in, so watch them all run into each other and lose 1-0.

'Alexis' to run wild.

Rangers playing on a highland pitch which is the sort of thing you'd see in your local park. If you Iived in the 1990s.

Fucking lol.

What was that whopper Phil Jones doing there?

Having been to Fraserburgh, reckon 1990s is being kind. Nice to see a few proper fatties though.

United Twitter has been on full defence re. City's spending the last few days, but the reality is they're in a battle for 2nd, 3rd and 4th with clubs whose resources they dwarf. City by far the best team and not relevant.
