Adam Posted February 17, 2013 Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 I don't think that draw could've been much better. I wanted Everton and Wigan to get Millwall and Barnsley so they could face each other in the final but I'll take that. Chelsea vs Man Utd is great too, hopefully the winners get City.

Starvinho Posted February 17, 2013 Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 United-Chelsea looks tasty. (Watch it end up being Reading-Boro!) If it does happen to be United-Chelsea then it'll be in the eighth succesive FA Cup tie that we've played Premier League opposition and the 23rd time in 28 ties. And people say we always get easy draws... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rainiac Posted February 17, 2013 Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 We got Barnsley at home? I don't think I could have asked a better draw for good ol' Man City (Watch now as we somehow lose) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And people say we always get easy draws... In fairness, a lot of them will be the 'lower' PL teams, but you're right. It certainly feels like the other big sides get more favourable ties against lower league opposition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katsuya Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 Well, statistically, since the start of the 10-11 FA Cup season: United have faced Premier League opposition 80% of the time (10 matches) (of those 10 matches, two were against City, two were against Liverpool and one was Arsenal) Man City have faced Premier League opposition 50% of the time (10 matches) Chelsea have faced Premier League opposition 45% of the time (11 matches) Arsenal have faced Premier League opposition 40% of the time (10 matches) Which would seem to stack up to say that United get tougher draws, I guess.

stokeriño Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 I thought the main point of United getting easier draws was about the Champions League group stage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baddar Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 I thought the main point of United getting easier draws was about the Champions League group stage? Happens to every other top seed though, most seasons. Didn't Chelsea play a bunch of Danish bus drivers and postmen this season? Admittedly the rest of their group was tough, but still.

MJB Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 Chelsea or Middlesborough here we come. First Nani and now Hernandez makes it 2-0. EDIT: 2-1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baddar Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 Not the most convincing of performances last night overall, but with that said it should've been much better than the 2-1 suggests. Nani was good when he came on, but the guy still hasn't got a final ball. And Welbeck still shits himself in and around the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrilla Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 Everton/Oldham on ITV at the minute.1-0 to the Toffees, Mirallas scores from six yards out. Goal was all about the cross in, caught Oldham napping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrilla Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 Jose Baxter almost with an immediate reply, beating Howard but not the post. Then a penalty appeal turned down, no replay of it yet.Just seen the replay and well... I've seen 'em given. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrilla Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 Yeah, Baxter is the lad that left Everton because he wanted first team football even if it was at a lower level. They just mentioned that he is Everton's youngest ever player, seems to be highly rated by a lot of people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colly Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 2-0 after a handball and a downright rubbish penalty by Baines. I'm just gutted Jelavic didn't get a better connection on his lying down bicycle kick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrilla Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 Osman made it 3-0 with a flick on header that eluded the keeper when Jelavic ran across the ball's path.Matt Smith pulls it back to 3-1 with a header from a corner because it wouldn't be an Oldham FA Cup game without one of those.
