    I think they signed Eniola Aluko. Might have been a mistake, but better footballer, better looking ...

    So you thinking beating Boro away in 2014 was an easy tie ? Have a look at our record at the Riverside add in Ayresom Park for that matter.

    Oh I wasn't rubbishing, just suggesting that Boro were relatively easy to beat back then.

    No. I was saying that the team that knocked us out in 1971 in the 6h round was better than the one we beat in 2014. As was the crowd.

    I don't think City have ever found beating Boro away relatively easy.

    I'd say that we were a better team in 2014 then the one in 1970. Not the other way round.

    We beat them because we were a decent team in 2014, which is also the reason why we reached the FA Cup Final, nothing to do with an easy passage as was the point of my original reply.

    We played our second string which included players like Prozzie and McLean who struggled in the Championship when we were there.

    This is like wading through quick sand, I know what team we put out because I was there, my point again is that we were a decent team who performed on the day at a place where we have had very limited success over the years.
    Are you saying Boro lay down for us ?

    I wonder if Arsenal thought that their 2014 Cup win was 'unentertaining' or only against easy opposition'?

    They seemed ecstatic to me.....

    there was a massive groan from all around me when Hernandez stepped up for the first penalty. he'll hit it softly and too near the keeper was the consensus. he did. then we got the 2nd one and bugger me he steps up again. "over the bar this time" was the collective opinion. it was (via the keeper's hand).

    the only circumstance that Herndandez should ever be allowed to take a penalty in the future is as the 11th person in a shoot-out. and even then we should consider having one of his team mates nobble him before it's his turn.

    Why? Thought he had a good record with pens for us. Has he missed a lot for us?

    Well, we probably would've gone out in the next round anyways. Spurs would've been the team we played.

    Really good draw that, hoping Sutton pull off the greatest cupset ever.

    It's looking like Burnley are getting the good draw this year and probably will get to the final.

    Top 5 are still in, and avoided each other
