Bloody London tube system :roll: took the Northern Line to Euston instead of the Piccadilly Line to Earls Court - silly man.

Fat Sam shows what can happen when you don't act with the utmost integrity at all times.

We all make mistakes, but that's the sort of mistake that you can't make as England Manager and keep your job.

Who will be the next England manager?

There aren't any outstanding candidates. Will we end up with a Steve McClaren type appointment?

The "Big" moniker suits the England manager so it's a shame that Big Sam has screwed up. The FA should remain consistent in their selection process though. So how about "Big" Phil Scolari perhaps or my personal favourite The "Big" Figure.... :guiness;

The whole sport is bent and runs on backhanders, agents, bribes etc

Sam just got tricked when acting with footballs normal behaviour.

Yesterday was a great day for the FA Cup. Two and half upsets out of 5 matches.
Well done to Lincoln and Millwall.

First non league club to reach the quarter finals for 103 years. :happy-jumpeveryone:

Were their odds of winning the cup 5000 to 1? :dance:

Yesterday at the Den was magnificent. We gave Lincoln a round of applause when the p.a. announced the result. A great achievement and a little bit of cup magic.

Leicester were all over us in the first 15 minutes. We gave them too much respect and consequently didn't get the ball. As soon as we showed out teeth we started to improve. Even when Cooper was sent off, we regrouped and played like we had 11 men on the pitch. Leicester had their chances but couldn't take one. To the credit of both teams, the substitutions were positive; neither club wanted a replay. The game was settled by that superb late goal and the home fans went away happy.

Credit to Ranieri, he didn't make any excuses. He knew it was do or die and he happened to finish on the wrong side of the result. I have a lot of respect for the club and their fans and I hope they thrash Seville in the Champions League.

We all know that football is governed by cash and not much else but the achievements of Lincoln and the Wall show that the smaller clubs can have their day. I can't wait to speak to my Leicester supporting friend in Holland tomorrow :icon-lol:

I may have asked this before but I'm yet to receive a definitive answer. Is Arse'ne Wenger known to his mates as Arse' for short - as in "Hi Arse' you OK ?"

A fantastic performance by Milwall tarnished by the scenes that followed the final whistle. :naughty:
