FA cup 2016-17

Blackburn go 1-0 up!

That didn't last long...a cool finish from Rashford, and it's 1-1.

Blackburn are one of those clubs that I actually want to see lose. They've been destroyed under the Venkys, serves them right for abandoning their fans, players and managers. I read somewhere that they are averaging Ewood Park being under half full this season.

Ibrahimovic makes it 2-1.

That's Arsenal going to Wembley.

Nice draw for Lincoln.

Could well have the top four teams in the EPL, making the Semi Finals.

I knew you'd come round, Budget!

I'll grant you if Sutton can somehow beat Arsenal tonight and thereby guaranteeing a non league side in the semi final then it will be a notable achievement.

Plus we would get to hear all the Arsenal fans moaning about Wenger even more.

Mind you 4-0 to Arsenal the likely result.

Looks like the fairy tale ends tonight. Lucas puts arsenal up 1-0.

Whilst only a goal in it, there is still hope........

Walcott gets his century!

Arsenal 2-0.

Boring, Boring Arsenal

Looks like Sutton's reserve keeper may be in bother over the pie incident.

[Aidan11]

He's had to quit now.

A sad day for Sutton United in what has been a fine cup run, but difficult to sympathise when the club whored themselves out to a gutter rag for a few extra quid.

I would be interested to know how much Sutton United got from The Sun for shirt and advertising sponsorship, having already received £215k in prize money and £391k in TV money. £606,000 + gate money is season defining for any non league club.

Technically what Wayne Shaw did could be classed as spot fixing, but how can a ban be enforceable if it did not influence the match outcome? If anything the Gambling Commission should be investigating The Sun and stripping their gaming licence for offering a market in direct relation to one of their clients, i.e. shirt and advertising sponsors of Sutton United.
