This Weeks Other FA Cup Games.

[Pam]

Scunny should have had a pen, apparently. The bastard officials this weekend.

Why have BT got Chelsea V Scunthorpe and BBC but on Spurs V Leicester? 2 terrible games that do not, in any way, promote the 'magic of the cup'?

Indeed.

Obligatory rags game and not the most exciting ties picked. Spurs/Leicester must be a favour a jug ears.

Speaking of pens I was listening to Dean Saunders summarising on 5Live at the Oxford v Swansea game and he was on about having scored some and missed some. I recall him missing one at the Platt Lane end - possibly for Oxford. For some reason Eric Nixon chinned him as he followed a pass back to him - completely out of the blue. Nixon was off and big Naill went in goal and saved the spot kick from Saunders. I was down the North Stand end so never have understood my the punch? Anybody know why Nixon did it - other than the fact it was Dean Saunders and he took the opportunity? I mean that alone is reason enough but.........

Nixon was sent off v Palace for hitting Mark Bright
Quinny saved his pen v Derby when Tony Coton was sent off
Early the next season Saunders missed a pen at Maine Road for Liverpool

I like the Leicester boss,quietly understated with a twinkle in his eye

Saunders missed three penalties against us for three different clubs.

Derby and Liverpool, as already mentioned and Villa.
