    Right, going to sit down and watch the live FA Cup match on ITV.

    ALL WE HEAR ABOUT FROM COMMENTATORS, PUNDITS AND PRESS IS THE ROMANCE OF THE FA CUP - THE CHANCE FOR THE MINNOW, A CUP UPSET, A GIANT KILLING, A FAIRYTALE, A GAME WHERE THE UNDERDOG CAN TRIUMPH.

    So, what is the game - is it a league one team against premier league team or maybe a non-league team against a league team?

    OH - Its ARSENAL V TOTTENHAM, the type of game we can see everyweek.

    So much for the romance of the cup but i guess its viewing figures that REALLY count.

    It's the automatic biggest money maker for ITV. Next year it's back to BBC happily so something interesting might make it on.

    I'm looking forward to it. Maybe because I've got pizza. Yeah.... Pizza.

    Arsenal vs Spurs is invariably a good game, and with Sherwood's kitchen sink approach you'd imagine all the more so. I'm going to watch it.

    Now it gets interesting: Villa out, Toon out, Spuds or Arsenal out, Fulham or Norwich out, United or Swans out.... the third round is the nasty one because of the timing. Now it's about the right draw.

    I dont really have a big problem with the Arsenal v Spurs game being show - 2 great clubs, will probably be a good game.

    Just wish TV companies would stop bullshitting with all this romance of the cup/giant killing thing.

    In reality they couldnt give a **** about middleborough v hull, rochdale v leeds, wigan v mk dons, they just care about the top 8 prem league clubs playing each other.

    Can't work out which is Cazorla's favoured foot. Normally you can tell with "two footed" players by seeing which foot they use to take set-pieces, but he took an early free-kick left-footed, now a corner right-footed. Some player.

    That's crazy, a 15 yard pass along the ground is about my reliable limit with my left foot. Quite depressing really.

    Spurs should have had a pen, but Clattenburg knows better.
