Even though it isn't one of my most memorable games, the most emotional I've felt at a game where I felt a lump in my throat was at Old Trafford when the whistle went when we beat Sheff Utd to get to Wembley for our first FA cup final in my life of supporting our club, (I was in nappies in 1974 for our last cup final). Even though I knew I wouldn't get a ticket it was a feeling of payback and a reward for all the shite and away days spent getting beat at places like Bournemouth and Stoke. It was only a second division side we beat but it wasn't the opposition that mattered, it was the reward and our destination. Finishing eighth doesn't compare.

Fancy seeing the slave film, the jap pow film and maybe gravity.

zip it, Zanetti.

Who was it on here who put a holiday in for the final day of the transfer window?

Sky sports news understands..... They understand how to put a pretty face on the screen I'll give them that.

Poor lambs.

To be fair, they haven't a fucking Scooby what European football travel entails.

PaddockLad tomorrow............

Sounds lush.

Looks lovely.

Alan Pardew: "The Cup seems to elude us". I wonder why?

Steven Taylor: "It's a killer blow. We understand. Listen, this competition is massive and people don't realise how big this competition is. Even from a young lad, come the FA Cup, this is what you want to be in and to try to win. But the last three years just haven't been good enough. We just need more belief. This is the third year on the trot for us - that's got to hurt. We didn't deserve to win. Maybe for 20 minutes in the first half, we played well and possibly 10 in the second half when we had a good little stint but they just wanted it that bit more. We didn't deal with the set-plays and, at the end of the day, that has cost us the game. I am just devastated we lost." I'm devastated we're out too. Also not happy that this fucking Goon is still getting minutes on the pitch and representing NUFC in the media.

Pains me to see the deference to the cup gone. These were the big games in a season and the final was an event from the morning till kick off. What have got now? Certain clubs virtually sponsored by the media while the rest just plod on their own trying to stay in the division and sacrificing potential glory for perpetual mediocrity in run of the mill league games. Football in this country needs sky to become bankrupt and start again even if it means the likes of man u suffering in the cl then frankly, so fucking what? Never felt as disillusioned about football as I do now which is odd seeing as we're 8th in the top division and been a lot worse off, it's not our game anymore. It might be an age thing but I'm not too sure.

Football Genius.

I know that if I walk into lampost it's going to hurt my head, I'm still going to say, 'fuck, y'bastard!' when it happens.

I bet it was fun in the Woolpack last night.

If Pardew didn't get any stick at all in this thread then I'm pretty confident a certain poster would've been giving him pelters about not playing his best side for an FA cup game.

They use the rush as an excuse to quickly get their call in to 606/talksport. Fuck something normal like getting a pint.

I can honestly say that this daft cunt has cheered me up.

He was at Ginola all night, sly kicks, scraping down his leg with his studs all which Ashby never noticed. He then fouled Ginola and the blind cunt booked Ginola which lead to Ginola getting a red. Always makes me laugh when I hear fucking Tarquin from Islington moaning about how refs don't protect Theo etc on their speed dial to 606.

I was there. Fucking Dixon the moon faced manc cockney cunt.

300 was all they had.
