I very much doubt we’d have give ManU a game with as much energy as that. Bristol performed magnificently.  They have so much belief in themselves.

Fair play to them. Meanwhile we can't beat anyone above 8th in the Championship.

Neither can the great Man Utd

Quite apart from them sticking it up Manchester United and Mourinho, my brother-in-law is a City season ticket holder and has just lost his son to a horrific mouth cancer, and if that puts a smile on his face then I’m even more chuffed.

Yes, I just saw his interview. "They were lucky". Lucky my arse, Bristol thoroughly deserved that. I'm chuffed for Baker.

I'm sorry to hear about your Brother-in-law's son and I hope this result gives him something to lift his spirits a bit.

Mourinho didn’t want the story to be about how lucky they were but it was only him who brought it up and then mentioned it several times during a brief interview, he’s an ungracious cock.
Loved the scenes with the goal scorer and his family and mates at the end.

What an utterly graceless, bitterly and increasingly irrelvant man he has become.  I cannot stand the man anymore.

I would have liked to have seen Bristol's first goal allowed considering the United keeper was daft enough to hurriedly kick it straight into the back of the Bristol player who was turning to run back.

Game on New Years day will be interesting.

Have to say after watching that I wouldn't fancy playing them over two legs in the play offs!

First time round in the early days at Chelsea he was great value in post match interviews. He is bitter and twisted these days. He did actually say that Bristol deserved their luck but by making that luck or perceived luck the focus of his interview he comes across as ungracious. Which of course he is.

They would be a hell of lot more cautious in that situation believe me.  Tonight was a no lose game for them.  Packed house, nothing major lost if they failed in their quest.  Plenty of teams have won a one off game like this before including ourselves beating Liverpool in the semi
