It just shows how sad the PL has become.  Go out of the cup to concentrate on PL mediocrity.

13,171 at the Sty, 4,671 from Newcastle. So exactly 8500 of them could be bothered with a 3pm Saturday KO in the FA Cup.

Doesn't it show how sad the FA Cup is, a team would rather finish one place above relegation than actually win the FA Cup.

I'd love to have Daniel Johnson back. He's a great player at this level.
i think we have Lambert to thank for the offload, don't we?
The only time I saw him in our PL team he looked okay. I saw him at Deepdale earlier this season and - like BB for Wednesday - he looked v comfortable in the C'ship.

Don't understand Bournemouth, they are gonna be safe this season, full strength team and they would have won today.

What do Albion fans do once they've won the FA Cup?  Turn off the PlayStation.

Think Preston are going to regret all those missed chances.

If PNE can give Arsenal a decent game, we can beat Spurs.

It's always the way isn't it. You know like they did against Bournemouth Arsenal will find a way to grab goals in the second half.

Agree and add to that a 5pm on a saturday and other games taking place on the same day

Probably wearing it to protect him from the infamous Hawthorns radiation belt....or Pulis bullshit as it's commonly known.

I see that 14 of Wayne Rooney' s 249 Manchester United goals have been against Villa - more against Villa than any other club.

I think of Mr Fowler who always seemed destined to score against us, including at Old Trafford - just to rub it in.

It hurt.
