    He can only start matches if he has done his homework and tidied his room. If my 13 yr old grandson is anything to go by, that will take about 10 Mins max for both.

    And from what I can remember, with regards to child safety rules, he will have to change and shower separately from the adults.

    I wonder which opposition player becomes the ‘baddy’ who puts a robust tackle on the ‘little boy’. Mind you, my thirteen year old grandson is bigger than me!

    A comment I read earlier was that the Premier League has not asked the FA to ban replays in rounds 3&4 of the FA Cup, this season.
    Hopefully they will be back.

    That genuinely doesn’t bother me.
    It’s one thing to give up replays because of Covid but it’s another thing to give them up because the big teams, with the biggest squads might have to squeeze another game in.
    Replays add to the excitement of the earlier rounds and it’s great for a lower team to battle through a tough home game and get a share of the money from a replay with a Premier League team.
    If the big teams want to avoid a replay, take the first game seriously and send out their better players.

    I hope Ralph is watching how Dortmund are nullifying City and in particular Haaland.

    Great pass but Haaland still had a lot to do. Not all about the pass for me.

    I wonder what he means by this? Surprise early Germany call up for ABK? That’s really the only one that immediately come to mind

    Have we got anyone with a dual nationality that might switch in this round?
