Sunderland look pretty crap, yet smashed us

 

In fairness the gulf in class and money spent on squads is huge.

 

Yet they’re playing out the back but also dallying around on it. Recipe for disaster

 

The lowest ranked side left in the competition, Maidstone United have knocked out L1 Stevenage.

 

Maidstone

Trip there if we get through please.

 

Have to feel for Ballard. OG and gives away a pen. Tired challenge that.

 

Very tired challenge that.

 

Yep. Can be excused!

 

Thought he was Sunderland’s best player, apart from two blips. Jack Clark was disappointing.

 

Yeah first time I've seen Clarke and he was rubbish. I thought going forward Sunderland were disappointing full stop really, every time they got into a decent position a poor pass let them down.

 

That table annoys me because they've gone with 5 letters for all the teams, but didn't do the same for Forfar...
I know it shouldn't, but I can't help it

 

Agreed. Why stop after the Forf letter?

 

Lavia not in the squad vs PNE today? Injured?

 

So Brighton it is, then, given the promotion rivalry down the years, and relative nearness.

 

Would love Eastleigh to progress to.the fourth round and meet Southampton! The tie we can only dream.about.

 

Interesting to see our Spanish cousins, Athletic.Bilbao.up.to.4th in.La Liga, not having spent a euro.in the last transfer window. In contrast, "little" Girona splashed out 22 millión!

 

Nice video on line of Jude Bellingham giving his blanket to a shivering ball boy. Sorry can’t post it as technologically stupid

 

Alright, Show Off
