The FA Cup (Other football)

[Chico Hamilton III]

Didnt we play Millwall on a friday night in the cup not so long ago?

Yeah I was there. We lost and it was very grim.

Only took me 10 mins to get home though. When they eventually uncaged us.

On the plus side, we'll be the first team to make it into the 4th round.

No we won't. Three games on Thursday and one earlier kick off on Friday.

I'm aware of that, although those games were announced after my post. Thanks for the update though.

Why all the weird KO times for non-TV games ?

[cdbearsfan]

A few have been moved due to teams not being able to play at the same time. Then there are staggered kick-offs due to overseas TV coverage.

The magic of the FA cup is still strong in er....where?

1-1? Or is it a different Sheff Utd game that I've forgotten? Also, are witches particularly known for being poorly-endowed?

I think the phrase is usually ‘cold as a witches tit’.

You can't move for Lincoln City supporters in Turkmenistan.

I always use it in that meaning, too, rather than Risso's 'flatter' alternative.

I'm not sure I think it makes that much sense either way. I'd have thought witches' tits would be quite warm due to time spent around hot cauldrons and being burned at the stake. Even at the start of MacBeth, they're rarely depicted wearing jumpers or big coats, and that's set in Scotland.

Is that the night someone threw a bottle at Charles N'Zogbia

[Bent Neilsens Screamer]

I remember the  everton  home game when we won 2-0 wesley and el ghazi  that was electric on a Friday

Wasn’t that the first game back after being in the Championship, you’re right though, great atmosphere.

[cdbearsfan]

It was our third game, second at home. We had already lost at home to Bournemouth after also losing our opener at Tottenham.
