One of the BT analysts was complaining there wasn't much spin on it and De Gea should have kept it out.

Its not the spin, its the placement. You don't always have to fool a gk to beat them.

ffs. Wycombe are knacking up an otherwise in-the-bag 5 fold. I thought these fuckers were supposed to be plucky little cup specialists.

that makes it 21 years since we won an fa cup match, exiting at the third round for the 48th time in our history (only level with plymouth)
a blackburn fan i know excitedly suggested he and i should attend when the draw came out. seemed unprepared for my response

Maybe it's because my formative experiences as an Evertonian were FA Cup runs with thrilling home wins in front of capacity crowds, followed by agonising exits ('77 & '80 semis, '81 quarters), I really really hate going out of the Cup. I think my dad was the same (never heard the last of the '53 semi). Maybe also because, by January, it's the only possible thing we can win.
Home defeats seem especially bad. I never saw a Gordon Lee side (Gordon Lee ffs) lose at home in the Cup. (We did, but I wasn't there).
― Michael Jones, Saturday, 7 January 2017 18:34 (seven years ago) link
(League Cup. Doesn't count)
actually winning the cup didn't shake the bitterness then? :)
― illbient microtonal poetry Surbiton (imago), Saturday, 7 January 2017 18:36 (seven years ago) link
No, not really. Actually being at Wembley to see us lose to a Frank Jr goal in 2009, 29 years after Frank Sr scored that stupid bobbling 119th min header for West Ham at the Elland Rd semi replay brought it all back. Football is awful.

in our admittedly feeble cup run defence btw this from lfw is also spot on. the worst thing about the 21 years is we were barely ever moved to give a fuck
While it’s typical football fan madness to complain about the outcome of a random draw, is there not a fucking bone in that velvet bag they could maybe throw us one year? [..] Three ties with Blackburn, four separate matches with Luton Town, three with Sheffield United, three with MK Dons, two with Nottingham Forest, two with Burnley, two with West Brom – it’s like watching the plates go round and round in a motorway service station café.

Re: QPR - reached the 4th round in 2012 and 2013, surely? Beat MK Dons and WBA after R3 replays, respectively. Doesn't make it much better, mind...
(Checking a bit further, QPR have won seven FA Cup ties since reaching the quarters in '95)
