This Weekends FA Cup Quarter Finals & Other Prem Games

Never mind the media - tell the FA so they can't say "it's not been drawn to our attention".

Just been having a look at the Europa league dates. If Chelsea stay in it they will have a QF 2nd leg tie on the Thursday before the semi. Really hope they win this replay!

If we go out of the Europa league in our second leg the FA cup replay is just before City and United meet in the league. If the league is still on the cards anyway.

Why did you lot not start playing until after half time? If you'd had a go at them from the off, you'd have beaten them.
 
Twice this has been deleted from the Telegraph comments on the game.

<b>Ferdinand should receive a retrospective ban for this gross foul</b> behind the referee's back. <a class="postlink" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1M6oWUsRXI" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1M6oWUsRXI</a> Please repost everywhere, tweet and retweet. The United scum should not be allowed to get away with this like they do with everything else.
Two replies to other's comments have gone undeleted (so far).

Please flood the comments!

That's just how this season has been. We have a good team but the atmosphere at the club is so poisonous that nothing productive can get accomplished. I was surprised to see them turn it on at all and expected a rather severe loss. We only played well because it was United and it's usually personal between them and us, especially with our recent history with Clattenburg. Ironically United and Barca are the only two teams in the world I'd be confident against at the moment. Without a common enemy to unify us, everything else is luck of the draw.
 
Chelsea boss Rafael Benitez accused Sir Alex Ferguson of snubbing his attempt to shake hands before the start of the FA Cup quarter-final at Old Trafford.

The Chelsea interim manager said: 'I was waiting at the beginning. It's up to him, I was in the way waiting.'

Asked why Ferguson might have done so, Benitez added: 'Ask him - if you are brave enough ask him. It was his decision. I was ready and waiting. I have some education because I know a lot of people are watching so I know what I have to do.'

The world and his dog can see that. And I'm sure you are aware of the players most outsiders blame for creating that atmosphere. Until you get rid of them (or until you get a manager that they are happy with!), then you will continue to have that rift in the club. Those same palyers effectively forced AVB out of the door and he's doing a bloody good job at Spurs now, with an inferior set of players.Are Chelsea prepared to bite the bullet and get rid of those big name players?

Makes a lot of sense that.

I don't think it's the same as it was before. Terry, Lampard and Cole are all that is really left of the untouchables (Cech doesn't seem like a controversial person). The issue is the fans and the owner are at odds over Rafa. It's like Roman is holding onto him to prove some sort of point. The fans wont forget what he prick he was to us while at Liverpool and he isn't a very good manager anyway so he gets things wrong which compounds our hatred.

I said on here when AVB was sacked that I was hugely disappointed in the players and he has gone on to prove me right with is work at Spurs. Nature of the beat I suppose but not much left of it to tolerate.

Sooner they are fucked off out of your club the better. They are utter poison to any new manager.
Speaking as a City fan though I'm happy they are still there because as long as they are, you will never be able to move on.

De Gea might be borderline useless with his hands but the amount of saves he makes with his feet is fucking ridiculous.

lol. He's been one of the best goalkeepers in the Prem this year.
