Fifth round fixtures:

Bristol Rovers v Southampton


Cardiff City v Wolves


Sheffield United v Middlesbrough


Liverpool v Barnsley


Manchester United v Arsenal


Preston v Portsmouth


Coventry City v West Brom


Chelsea v Huddersfield Town


The ties are scheduled to take place on 16 and 17 February.

Home to Middlesbrough could be a lot worse for us - I am sure Middlesbrough will see this as a very tricky fixture >:D<


Now if only the other two Yorkshire sides can do the business at Liverpool & Chelsea that'll just leave Merde Utd out of the so-called "Big Four" to worry about....:))

I've already posted this in the Wanted bit of the forum, but thought I might as well put it here as well.


I have 4 tickets for the Arsenal game tomorrow night and unfortunately I can no longer make it. They are available for ?40 each - face value - for any Gooner (or even Geordie) who fancies it. Drop me a PM if you are interested...

Life's not fair ;-)


BTW - Good to meet you on Friday :))

Pleased with our draw against Barnsley. Chelsea are lucky buggers, hopefully if we meet them in the final we can get the champions league theme tune to play before the match, and we should beat them! >:D<


I am not saying this to wind anyone up, but I have to say I see Man U winning against Arsenal at Old Trafford... Can't say as I particularly care either way, but guess I'd just about lean towards Arsenal, if nothing else than their players (if not the manager) seem less cocky than Ronaldo and Rooney!


Atila, I think it has been denied that Arsenal are the team enquiring about Woodgate. To be fair, he's stayed fitter this last couple of seasons, and he is a good player. If he hadn't been so unlucky with injuries, I think he would have earned top spot above Terry and Ferdinand in an England shirt.

Our record is good in the FA cup at Old Stratford so I'm optimistic. We would have to have played them at some point so there you go. I'm not sure it will be a great game to watch, but I predict it will be feisty as there is no love lost between us and the mob from Salford, or is it Stockport. Whatever, I know they are not based in Manc Chester, it's the blue half that are actually in Manc Chester.

It's Salford. I like the fact that they can't actually show the crest of Manchester as part of their badge because they are outside city limits. Ha ha!


Whenever I used to visit friends in Manchester, you'd see loads of locals wearing sky blue, and the Man U shop was full of asian tourists.

Barton is a hooligan on and off the pitch.


Thought Spurs could have done a little better yesterday. Had Jenas put away the two very good chances that came his way things might have been different. I can't complain about the penalty though.

We have them again back at the Lane on Saturday. Hopefully we'll have Ledley King back and we may even beat them this time.


Also, Atila, how you can call Ronaldo a one-trick pony is beyond me. I know you hate Man Utd but give the guy a break. He's a magnificnet player and a joy to watch. You'd love a player like that your side surely?

He may be a good player, but how can you condone the actions of a man who gets a team mate sent off and your club then forgives for you it. Maybe it says more about Man ure than Ronaldo but I'm inclined to think it speaks volumes about him and his wretched club.
My last post was regarding Ronaldo... Say the thing about Wise but didn't realise it was a done deal. Hope Leeds get someone decent soon, they have done so well coming back from minus 15 points! Punishing a club like that is sick, they're financially fucked so you make life even harder for them, nice :-S

Keef, you are now my favourite forumite. Not many people have sympathy for West Yorkshire's number 1 club! ;-)


Considering we lost points at the end of the previous season as well it seemed a little unfair. Let's hope Ken 'Papa Smurf Bates doesn't promote Bassett to manager. His idea of football is a game of head tennis and "who can kick it the farthest" competitions.

Went to Dulwich Hamlet on the weekend and wanted to big-up how helpful they were. There were 12 of us and we played a game of 6-a-side on their pitches behind the ground then into watch the match after. Total cost per person was ?6 for both events. (they did us a deal) excellent day and good to see the Hamlet come from 1-0 down to win.

>>Considering we lost points at the end of the previous season as well it seemed a little unfair<<


Oh come on that is a bit ripe! Leeds carefully timed their bankruptcy at the end of last season in order to negative the impact of the points deduction. In a way they are fortunate to have started with -15 and not -25....

    • Wanted 2 x Adult and 1 x Children tickets for Dulwich fireworks tonight please!
    • Labour have changed a number of things overnight.   1. VAT on school fees - this has resulted in 25,000 moving until state education. 2. Increasing NICs adding billions to the cost of going to work. 3. Introducing the Employment Rights Bill causing employers to stop hiring. This and item 2 have added 100,000 people to the unemployment scrapheap. These are also causing businesses to relocate further harming the economy. 4. Scrapping all the small boats deterrents meaning 60,000 illegal migrants have arrived in small boats since they were elected. 5. Dishing out huge public sector payroses with no conditions so we have a massively increased payroll and doctors etc arestill going out on strike. 6.changed IHT and non domicile tax rules causing 16,500 millionaires to leave the UK and stop paying any tax here at all forever. 7. Alongside 6, leaving the budget up until an historically late period after the last budget has caused a house price crash, killing the market and decimating government stamp duty receipts. 8. Their profligate borrowing (£100bn extra in just one year) to fund all their lavish promises means the government can now only borrow at the highest ever yields on records. They are more beholden to the bond markets than Liz Truss was. 9. The rate of inflation has doubled under this government. It was a healthy 2% when they came in. For most of the last year, as a result of all of the above it is now nearly 4%.   These are all decisions the Labour government took that have immediate cause and effect.  Its no good harking back to 15 years ago. The current administration was gifted the fastest growing economy in the G7 and within 15 months they have destroyed it.    And things are only going to get worse this winter.      
    • I use Autocar Repair in West Dulwich.. been using them for over 20 years. Excellent service… 
    • A lot to agree with here - don’t get me started on Irish people complaining about immigration! - but that final paragraph is once again a cop out  there’s a lot of extreme right wing money stirring up the division that people are feeling - but there is zero excuse for handing power to these people. We live in a democracy and if we have enough people willing to give it up then judging those people foolish enough to do so is not only something that will happen, it is something that the rest of us should be morally compelled to do  if someone wouldn’t “normally” vote for a racist party yet somehow will do so because they hear someone like me saying that would be bad, then you better believe I’m judging them
