Bosh.

It's a long trip from Sunderland to Stevenage.

Just unlucky, tbf. Maybe slightly down to not closing down but the deflections really can go anywhere. Bad luck.

I'd go with yes. Sunderland fan was telling me this morning he really hoped Bruce fielded a strong team (which I guess they did, particularly with Bent and Gyan up front), and was pleased to see the teamsheet so as to take the FA Cup seriously. He's now somehow claiming a) it wasn't a strong team (apparently that means a home defeat to Notts County is acceptable?) and that b) the FA Cup, in the end, doesn't matter, hence he wasn't bothered. Tool. Also a fair few on Facebook seem to be pretending their game never happened.

Was literally just about to ask about the team. Pedro-Villa-Messi up top?

I love American 'soccer' commentary. Get in, go over to the match announcer John Scales.

47 39.

"saying tht injuries atm two other those defenders wud of played ne way" The language of a Sunderland fan. Mindfuck.

Racist.

Burton score!!!

Fetch me some worms in canned form.

Big Kev Davies says NO to cup upsets.

Burton score.

1-2.

1-2.

Stop fucking talking about Liverpool and report the 3rd round ties, ey?

GG turns it around.

Panic over. 3-1. Coleman gets you goals.

Southampton ahead.

Which will invariably haunt us.

Also, impressively, despite being 2-0 up we've still managed to display some awful finishing.

The FA Cup sponsored by Yawn? What the hell is this shit?

It can't be very loud. Faint discontent.

As has no doubt been mentioned, there is a real key issue here: they'll have to spend a decent amount just to stay in the same position.

Fucking hell, all the partonising cliches coming out - yes, it's a 'mini victory' for York getting to 0-0 at HT.
