FA Cup - Blackburn post match thread

[wagonman]

Strange question I know but was just curious as to why the game kicked off at 20:10?

Never seen that ko time before.

I read the KO was delayed because something "important" was "happening" in Coronation Street...

Strange world hey?

Well done the Blues... CTID.

Is the 5th round a 2 legged tie ?

??? No. Why?

Well I meant the next round vs watfrod

Next round is the 4th round (vs. Watford)

One of the most encouraging bits for me is the way we came out fir the 2nd half. Pellers must have give the players a bollocking for the 1st half performance and it showed in they way we played. We seemed to up the tempo and be a lot more clinical. Very encouraging that and shows how they all pull together. I also noticed when Emyr Hughes came on how good Milner was with him, helping him out giving him advice and a couple of arms round the shoulder to give him advice. We seem to have a big difference in the team spirit and everyone has a team mentality.

Thought Milner relished being captain and led from the front with his workrate and willingness to get stuck in!! My vote for MOTM !!

Agreed - that left footed long pass out to Navas in the build up to one of Dzeko's goals was almost worth the admission money on its own.

We already knew it but "best team in (the land and all) the world" says Blackburn gaffer;

I love reading the match thread after a game to see which bluemooners start the whinging and calling of players at the first sign of things not being perfect on the pitch. Some of em know how to make themselves look stupid

Is the 5th round a 2 legged tie ?

Yes mate, same as the Blackburn one was !

Do away goals count double ?

Could have been a civil war if they`d have knocked Corrie off tonight.

We had half a team out, played shit, won 5-0 the GF was up for a shag, I smell of tuna, all in all a good night:)

When you say smell of tuna,is that in brine or ...

You can tell by the taste that it isn't salmon paste...............

And does the Golden Goal still count in the FA cup if both sides are still level after extra time and penalties?

6/10 for performance. 10/10 for finishing. Our clinical finishing glossed over a performance where we didn't get out of third gear, and to score 5 in third gear just shows how ridiculously good we are. But amongst it all, the world class players stood out. Navas' wing play at times is superb and his ability to create a yard of space to fire in a perfect ball is brilliant, and Negredo is Negredo. I don't need to say anything more to describe how good he is. Job done as far as I am concerned. Save the better performances for another day, and keep going on the trophy hunt.

Are you a commentator for ITV, or just on the wind-up?

 

[Bodicoteblue]

You have to say that the signings in the last window are proving to be absolute bargains ( still waiting for Jovetic obviously )
Last night Navas was motm for me- but Ferny and the beast were their usual quality.
When you look at the way spuds have blown the Bale money on a bunch of duds.
Duds at spuds hahaha

We didn't get out of third gear because all of our world class players weren't playing.

That's what made it such a good performance- because of the personnel who gave it. And it's not the first time a team of mostly second string players have gelled and stuffed someone. That's what so exciting: super city go holistic, Moysie is atrocious

What struck me about the first goal was that it was almost like a volleyball spike, where Edin was the decoy jumper and Beast was the one who actually executed the spike.
