Anyone following games from the lower leagues?
Remember someone did that and posted here, but as it got to the last rounds and tickets were impossible to get, which was a shame.

Reyes Clearly for Barnsley vs. Liverpool played an absolute stormer.

A couple of old MATES of mine have started going HX and enjoy it, I may well be at the Dagenham fixture on Easter Friday. Maidenhead away on bank holiday Monday for the die hards.

Apparently, Darren Fletcher, amongst other things blaming too many games for the ManU loss to Brighton
They're playing the absolute minimum games possible this season. Not in Europe and out of the other domestic cup in the first game they played, how the fuck does that work?
Been an entertaining round though, lets hope we get an easy draw for the 4th, and perhaps then the 5th then you would hope we give it a good crack, otherwise a tough draw, you just know our owners/manager will sacrifice it to focus on the league, but get to the 6th and you're in sniffing distance of Wembley
You would hope they take the opposite view no matter what our league position.
I hear that Man Utd. are holding their end-of-season party tonight and their Season Highlights video will be available Wednesday (on a 5.5" floppy disc).

Incredible result for Macclesfield
Was a feature on BBC breakfast about what the team means to the town & the journey they’ve been on. Down in the 9th tier recently… merely 6th tier now
One of their women players died recently (cancer I think) as did one of their men’s team killed in a car accident coming back from a game
Fair play to Man City too, taking the Cup seriously & smashing Exeter. Premier league teams SHOULD get scores like this against lower league teams

Good. a few upsets already will take the pressure off us. The magic of the cup is still here.
Rooney fighting back the tears, love or hate him he's a proper football man.

Wrong thread before
I watched the Macclesfield documentary. Robby Savage talked his mate into putting £2 million into the club and then left to manage Forest Green Rovers, the selfish cսnt. They met after he had left, and Savage could not look his mate in the eye

£52.10 straight into me old sky on the back if that one.
Hey! Sullivan! Need a loan to tide the club over? Good interest rates on that chicken, me old china.
