Man City apparently. Doesn’t make sense to just show a game which is televised live. Absurd decision that It was on BT so it wont be SKYs game of the day due to contract shite? We're on. Just started. Still nil-nil.

The odd thing is, this weird cognitive dissonance between being embarrassed about having to compete in this competition and being billy big bollocks about reaching the final seems to be entirely confined to Ready to Groom. I work in Washington these days, so '50-50' basically. No one, and I mean no one, is talking about this at work. No bragging rights about Wembo, no pisstaking about playing our bairns. literally no-one is talking about it anymore, including me. And, I'll readily admit it, the SAFC fans I work with are sound, reasonable and knowledgable. The checkatrade trophy, for them, is an amusing aside, nothing more. Don't read too much into the rantings of the mentalists on RTG. We all know what they are. The exact opposite at my place in Felling. One idiot has spent the whole day singing "tell me ma, me ma..". Another has spent the day in a feverish search for accommodation ("everywheres bewked up marra!") And a third reckons they'll "tak 70,000 down, easy" Bless them.

Well you would know

Maybe they don't. They might have started coming to matches and fell in love with the club when Ashley was popular, buying people pints, sitting with the fans etc. Twelve years later, they're singing "you fat cockney bastard, get out of our club" with the rest of us

Yep, I noticed that, fair play to the lad, showed a lot of maturity to not jump in.

Wasn't as much of a knacker as I was expecting tbf. Still think he's Fat Sham the second. A fraud.

Dyche is going to have seen a completely different game to everyone else, isn't he?

Ref has been a disgrace for both sides tbf

Surprised Rafa hasn't made any changes yet, few out there looking a bit tired.

Yip, thought this for a while, tonight has just confirmed it - Dyche is Fat Sam in disguise.

Me too, just thought straight away how proud his family must be

Wtf has this ref got against Richie? Booked him in the Cardiff game when two of their players collided, then this.

Got no time for either team here and think Sarri has been dreadful, but hope Kepa fucks up big style in this shoot out

Elliot is the Fatman. He's not far off a hundred tons.

Just seen that on Twitter and was about to post it myself. Quality

But they were spying on Frank Lampard's Derby County. Frank Lampard.

Maybe. They are also a pit-village size club similar to Blyth, who are punching massively above their weight. Not in the slightest bit outclassed by mighty Thunlun.

Been the better side out of two poor teams.

As I keep reminding the makems at work, this IS the worst period of their history - the only other time they've been in the third flight, they were top of the league all season and walked promotion.

Well it was fun while it lasted.

Bang goes my 1-1 bet (It'll still be a draw)

must admit i think the same but its highlighted just how far these cunt have fallen, even if they win its fucking great to watch them squirm, their fans man Nailed on 1-1. For the umpteenth time this season.

It's what happens when you apply some pressure. Maximo respect for that one.

Tee hee!

God this is fuckin awful. Two shite sides. If the makems do get promoted, they're going straight back down.
