    He certainly did. Ba was well off-side though

    If you press 'pause' at the exact moment Rigg pats the badge ...

    ... he's the youngest FA Cup scorer.and Sunderland won 2-1 <laugh>

    Fulham fought back to earn a replay as they avoided a shock FA Cup fourth-round defeat at home to Championship play-off hopefuls Sunderland.
    Jack Clarke's early goal looked to have put a youthful Black Cats side on course for a memorable win in west London, with the winger capitalising on Issa Diop's mistake to win the ball before calmly placing his effort past home goalkeeper Marek Rodak.
    However, the hosts, who enjoyed the majority of possession, levelled things up just after the hour mark with captain Tom Cairney superbly evading two challenges before picking his spot in the left corner.
    In a dramatic conclusion, 15-year-old Chris Rigg looked to have scored the winner for the visitors but his goal was ruled out with Abdoullah Ba off-side in the build-up, while Willian's effort for the hosts was tipped over.
    Sunderland had looked capable of reaching the last 16 of the competition for the first time since 2015 - when they were a top-flight club - for much of the contest.
    However, a draw was probably a fair reflection of an end-to-end encounter which saw both sides create some excellent goalscoring opportunities.

    Chris Rigg will be outside Mowbray's office begging him for a start ...

    ... I'd say it would put a few thousand on the gate if he did.

    Next step is for him to get some mins in a league game, although I wouldn't be devastated to see him start v Fulham

    That's just a contingency date until the tv companies decide on which games they're going to show and when. Game tonight so it probably won't be sorted until tomorrow at the earliest. All replays are currently scheduled for the 7th, apart from the Brum/B'burn one which is on the 31st due to league commitments.

    I’d love him to come on in a league home game with 40,000+ there.

    Either Ba went too early or the pass came too late ...

    ... shame as it wasn't the most difficult chance to get right.
