Don't forget, the reason there were hardly any stewards in front of the Holte by the end of the game is because loads of them were needed to stop the Albion in the lower Doug Ellis who were trying to climb over into the home section. I don't think they were trying to congratulate us on our win either.

Never mind our stewards, it's the Blackpool one's that need a talking to. They couldn't even stop a bloke on a mobility scooter.

We do appear to be weak as piss at fighting our corner with the FA and media.  I still think we are the only ones who have ever been done for tapping up another player.

It sucks and I hate the FA & the BBC more than ever but lets be clear, its just the FA clawing back some of the prize money they had to pay us.

http://www.thefa.com/thefacup/more/prize-fund

We got 360K for winning that game (now 160k) plus an extra 900K for winning the semi. We will be getting at least another 900K even if we lose in the final.

We come out ahead so we should move on and just make yet another note that the FA & BBC sports really are a bunch of scumbags.

I can't wait to see Greg Dyke's face when we rock up those stairs to take Stevie G's Cup away.

Having dwelled on the matter, 200,000 of these filled with coppers in a fleet of Securicor vans delivered to FA Headquarters would be my sensible, considered response.



I'll gladly donate 5 bags.

Trust statement due out any minute and Fantastic Mr Fox is not impressed by the fine at all.

I'm not fucking surprised, surely it sets a very dangerous precedent.

Trust statement has also been sent to Head of PR at the FA demanding attention. Bit of an anger fuelled rant but fuck them.

Big enough to make an example of, but not big enough to fight back.

Yes, but there's a super injunction preventing the photographs being published.
