They were until the GK dropped a clanger. Sunderland gifted the win in the end. At least Sunderland will be in action on that Bradford mud heap whilst we have a weekend off.
Just glad we're reaching the later stages these days. Improvement in cup efforts pleases me, got to be in in to win it and it represents the only chance for clubs like us to win a trophy. One game at a time though. Bradford next and we know they're capable of upsetting the odds. Played fantastic last night though. Giacc and Alvarez took the piss(only fulham i know), can't wait till they're finally up to speed with the Premier league, injuries have been cruel to them.
Sky Sports News HQ @SkySportsNewsHQ BREAKING: FIFA fine West Ham £71,000 after Diafra Sakho played in FA Cup tie after withdrawing from Africa Cup of Nations #SSNHQ
What a stupid pointless fine. Stupidity at FIFA for even investigating this in the first place & just read the article on SSN & Bristol City are disappointed & may appeal. Appeal for what. ****ing idiots the lot of them.
On a seperate issue the FA should make West Ham replay the game with Bristol City. Now FIFA have ruled.
They got fined because they broke the rules? So much for the integrity of the game. Shoulda been removed from the cup.
Throw back to days gone by when most pitches were a mud heap,. More fun. The Bradford v Sunderland game should be on TV as that is the best option for a cup upset. Aston Villa v. Leicester = switch off tv.
If you can't be rewarded with a tv game for beating Chelsea in their own back yard there's something seriously wrong with the competition. Harsh on Bradford imo
Spot on this ^^^^^^^. FIRST CUP SHOCK OF THE WEEKEND............ WEST BROM 4 West Ham Utd 0 zero. Hammers were poor very poor and made it all too easy. Good for MOTD tonight mind,
Would love to see this as the 6th round draw tonight. Bradford City v Reading Liverpool v Wba Blackburn Rovers v. Arsenal Manchester Utd v. Aston Villa
That was missing until Spock's lad stuck his toe on it. My opinion has nothing to do with getting 18/1 for og 1st goal.
