Radio:

 
This round of the FA Cup is my favourite weekend of the domestic football season.

For all the hype and build up this weekend has had, it is beyond pathetic with absolutely rubbish and limited football on television. The radio coverage has been average at best.
 
Great win yesterday. Genuinely amazing that we weren't 2 or 3 down at ht, but a really good second half performance...And out of nowhere, Chris O'grady has turned in to a top player!

Done well in the cup the last few years, hopefully again this year.
 
Forest fluffed it.

Always on the cards for me, remember us struggling up at tranmere in the league cup, when the team were on a high.

3rd round is my favourite day in football, I think this year it's fallen a little bit flat though for me personally... largely because it's always the first weekend off work after going back, aka back in the routine, looking forward to weekend football.

Bit naff'd at forest blowing it though, you're team in the 4/5th round of the cup spells exciting for me, always has.
 
De Gea, Smalling, McNair, Blackett, Rafael, Fletcher, Herrera, Rooney, Shaw, Wilson, Falcao

Substitutes: Lindegaard, Evans, Anderson, Lingard, Mata, Januzaj, Di Maria


Wonder if Fletcher can cope with the pace at this level..... otherwise a reasonable team (between getting youngsters more experience, and more regular stars match fitness after injury etc)
 
Thought they could at least turn over Sheffield.

Looks like Sheffield Utd haven't won in the past 6 games in the league either so not in good form leading into this game. QPR at home, you really would expect them to win and from what I can tell QPR played a mostly first team, Vargas didn't start and Green didn't appear to be involved at all.

Onouha, Caulker, Ferdinand and Traore back four shipping 3 goals to an out of form league one side.... lol.
 
Sheff U seem to turn it on for the cup.

Leeds dropped a load of Italian idiots and performed slightly better, we hit the post in the 90th min. Something to build on unless Redders recalls them, god forbid.
