    Amazing recap of FA Cup results so far on BT Sport:

    'Leicester and Chelsea through from last night.....
    Sheff Weds and Swansea go to a replay....
    Big well done to Coventry for their Cup run, but also well done Brighton who go through

    and...

    The troubles continue for West Brom as they lose and go out of the Cup.'


    They're in for a shock in a minute when they do the draw and find a team called Southampton are still in there!

    Some match box maths:

    In a kick the foot is in contact with the ball for around 50ms. sauce
    Footballers sprint at around 15m/s
    Distance = time*speed
    So in the time it takes for the kicking action to happen a sprinting player will travel around 0.05*15=75cm. That's quite far.

    There's a margin of error, because of physics and that the rules were written in the 1800s. All stuff that should have been thunk about around a year ago, really.
