Oxford United 3 Swansea City 2

Kemar Roofe is hunting a hat-trick that would secure the Oxford ball in the bag but his shot is over after more good play

Brilliant goal from Kemar Roofe, and it's a trademark strike from the Oxford number four. He's been doing this all season. He cuts inside from the left, hits a shot very early and it flies right into the corner, beating Kristoffer Nordfeldt on the bounce.

Should the keeper have got that? Harsh. A fine early strike...

Kemar Roofe has his second and Oxford have a two-goal lead! Swansea have a corner, it's cleared and Oxford have a two-on-two break. Chris Maguire squares it to Roofe, his first touch sees him surge past last man Liam Shephard and he scores from 10 yards.

Game over?

Ian Emery: As much as football does my head in these days (FIFA etc) that was a fantastic match. Brilliant victory for Oxford United.

JavelBleach: Amazing from [HASHTAG]#OxfordUtd[/HASHTAG]! Couldn't believe they're [HASHTAG]#League2[/HASHTAG]! They'd have dominated any PL club playing like that!

Dan Mather: Oxford play better football than at least 50% of the premier league. Great game.

Now who do we know who used to cut in from the left and bang them into the top corner? Until we signed him from Blackburn and he turned to shyte...
 
The only TV channel available here that is airing FA Cup matches is SportsNet World, which I don't subscribe to (extra $20/mth). Many channels available for PL matches in my cable package.

I've found a stream that's not too bad which runs with my ad blocker turned on.

Looks like our neighbours are not taking the Swansea approach with Costa scoring after 12 mins against Scunthorpe.

On the road again for our LC bogey opposition........

GOAL - Carlisle 2-2 Yeovil
Shaun Jeffers (90 mins)

That lengthy midweek replay is well and truly back on the agenda! Yeovil substitute Shaun Jeffers has scored in stoppage time with a low finish.

GOAL - Carlisle 2-1 Yeovil
Mark Ellis (76 mins)

Maybe Carlisle didn't fancy a 654-mile round trip to Yeovil in midweek so Mark Ellis has headed them back ahead late on...

I'm glad Wasilewski scored. He's not a great player but is as hard as nails. When he played for Anderlecht he suffered a double open fracture of the tibia and fibula i.e the bones were sticking through his flesh. Came back and is such a hero to the Anderlecht fans a coach load came to see his debut for Leicester.
 
Dodgy penalty decision gives Spurs a replay.

Was it? Wasn't it?
Tottenham 2-2 Leicester

"Looking at the replays I think that's a very harsh penalty against Leicester."

Kevin Kilbane: "It is harsh but it was hand to ball - Nathan Dyer has flicked his hand out at the ball going past him."

Mit: Ouch. Don't think it was a penalty at all. Decent composure from Kane to level the game. Harsh on Leicester

MP: Dyer decision from the ref

Thebugler69: Could anyone tell me how that's deliberate handball? Awful awful decision.

Three minutes of time added on. Tottenham, as you would expect, pouring forward.

"I don't think either manager wants a replay but it's no more than Tottenham deserve."

'The right decision'
Tottenham 2-2 Leicester
Bobby Madley taken up good positions got the key decisions right today.
"I think Nathan Dyer recognised the ball was beyond him and he had a little flick at it. It's the correct decision.

"Harry Kane was under pressure but he was cool, composed, he went for power and scored with a really good penalty."

GOAL - Tottenham 2-2 Leicester
Harry Kane

The whole of White Hart Lane holds its breath, the nation debates whether it was a penalty or not and Harry Kane puts it all to the back of his mind as he steps up and confidently buries the ball with the nonchalance of a bloke nipping out for a paper in his slippers. Cooler than the other side of your pillow. Yep, that cool.

PENALTY FOR SPURS
Tottenham 1-2 Leicester

Penalty! Drama!

Danny Rose tries to nip past Nathan Dyer and the ball hits the Leicester man on the hand. Soft... but he did handle it away from Rose.

I agree Col, it is incredibly frustrating. But you have to give him the rest of the season, to prove himself, bring in his players, and get his ideas working.

Otherwise where do we go, from here, another sacking, no players wanting to come here, because its a mess ???

Surely Hall re-signing indicates he wants to stay, and therefore likes what he is hearing from JFH ??

Money is now tight for us, so to waste more money on sacking JFH, without time to turn things around, and then what another manager, more new ideas, more time to bring his type of players, and it all over again ???

He may have a dodgy ACL and is just getting a little insurance, is that too cynical

All of us need to be honest with ourselves. We are not as good as we think we ought to be. Today was awful sat watching we just seem lacking in quality and confidence.

My worry is that JFH has not been tested and we don't really know his manager material He inherited a great Burton set up that was established and better than most in the league in which he was managing.

Is he as good as we are led to believe? .

A league up is a big jump and I am not convinced he is ready for it sadly. We must stay up this year but in reality we could yet be sucked downward. I hope he settles and finds his team quickly but so far we are lacking a lot of things needed to ensure stability.

We are all hoops through and through but this season will define us I feel. The board have lumped on Les & his decisions could define us as a club for the next 10 years. I hope he gets it right.

Lets look forward to better times but this season will play a huge part in our future. Stay up and build a future or lose our way.

I know what we all want and hope get it but fear we are teetering on the edge of possible disaster.

Onward and upward he says hopefully!

I think we have lost our way a long time ago, I honestly can see JFH walking away if he doesn't get any support in the transfer window.
 
Scunthorpe denied a nailed on penalty when it was 1-1
