All things being equal it should result in 2 titanic semi’s.
Presumably, if Spurs get through, their game will have be played away from Wembley.
Nope, the semis are at Wembley no matter what. Probably something that the FA are hoping doesn’t come to pass, but the reality is that the fans will split 50/50 so not really a home game for them Presumably, if Spurs get through, their game will have be played away from Wembley.

We make the opposition look good, I think. We sit back and let very average teams build confidence and create chances. It is depressing stuff to watch but rarely backfires.
Agreed. Which makes it look like teams are more fired up against us. There may be a small element of that, but it's largely because we let teams play. NRS said:
Using the first set of lines it is is a clear offside and so great decision.
However whoever drew those lines was an idiot as they're not matching the lines on the pitch in any way. Should have been allowed.
The first set? you mean the squiggly, wonky ones?However whoever drew those lines was an idiot as they're not matching the lines on the pitch in any way. Should have been allowed.
If you mean the second set, then god help the game if we’re disallowing goals for that, but allowing ones like Harry Kane’s against Liverpool a few weeks back.
Oh, forgot to mention there was an offside decision given today in the Sheff Wed / Swansea match where the attacker was offside when his teammate payed the ball, then a defender tried to clear and failed, but kicked the ball, yet it was given as on offside. Completely contradicting the reasons given for Kane’s being on side a few weeks back.

Sorry, was sarcasm. It was offside on the rubbish lines, but those don't actually look like they were drawn on the pitch you guys were playing on.
They knew that VAR was having problems with their graphics 45 minutes before the match started. I took those photos off my TV when the match wasn’t live and simply rewound and paused it. They are the real screenshots of what was shown to the viewers. Ascayman said:

Why? We’ll have to wait and see if thats what happens but I’d be surprised if their opponents didn’t express that opinion to the FA.

It'll be interesting to see how Pog performs if he plays. Not sure I like Maureen criticising him in the press conference.
I saw the presser. I’ve got no issues with what Maureen said. He’s been honest and it sounds like Pogba’s on the same page. If he’s a player that can’t take constructive criticism then there’s no hope for him. Doesn’t sound like that’s the case at least. I’d like to think we’ll see a reaction from PP today. mickk said:

I miss the days of semi finals being at places like Villa Park. You've never experienced poverty until you've gone to Villa Park!
Wembley should only ever be a place for finals.Gassing Station | Football | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
