QFs

Manchester final be off the hook

Well, only one of the teams are from Manchester

A big East Lancashire, Burnley v Blackburn derby final would be off the hook and the one that traditionalists will be hoping for.

Also the only two sides left in the competition who were amongst the 12 founding members of the Football League in 1888/89.

Paddy Footix just doesn’t get it.

Three Lancashire teams in the last eight which will please Dixie Dean.

Salad days for the Grimsby fans. Watched the last half hour of it they played v well.

If there’s one set of fans who don’t like salad it’s Grimsby.

Galway United.

With the Sixth Round draw made, there now looks to be a good chance of a rematch of the 1983 “And Smith must score” final between Brighton and Manchester United 40 years later in 2023.

Sheffield United and Blackburn Rovers do battle again 30 years on from their epic Sixth Round tie. Bramall Lane is a special venue for Cup football.

I’d have a quiet fancy for Burnley to turn over Manchester City.

Lettuce know his name ?

Can we swap him for Antonio??

Burnley haven’t beaten City since 2015 and before that it was 1974.

Since 2015 City have Won 14 and drawn 1.

Scoring 47 and conceding 6

Vinny will get an almighty reception though

Especially after he stuck up for Manchester City over their criminal fraud and cheating.

His time is up. Send him back to Forest or some other shit team.

Like how Liverpool fans adore players who excuse their murdering and pissing on corpses?
