Most fortunate/unfortunate, depending on one's allegiances. It's the goalkeeper taking the penalty too :-)

Gordon (skiiltan) | 2940 comments I should be pleased that the league is so unpredictable. It leads to very low scores for my punts, though.

6. Chelsea +7

18. Stoke City -11

Great weekend for Leicester to play Everton, by the way. If they're both on a post-manager-sacking bounce it should be a good game.

what makes you think we're lucky enough to actually be involved in a penalty shoot-out? :)

(fact: we were first team to be knocked out s.cup on penalties. two seasons later the first to be knocked out twice on penalties (both to lower league opposition, i might add!)

Calmed down since Wednesdays game. It was all going so well, a nice chilled Golden Glory, meat Rogan Josh with special rice, and Spurs 2.0 up at half-time. In a state of near bliss I remembered how Spurs finished last season, 12 wins in their last 13 games. In my mind Spurs for now were peaking at the right time, with plenty of games left. Back to the game however, and it didn't take too long for the Hammers to smash my dream up. 3 goals in 15 minutes I think, and Spurs and their fans were shell shocked! It's ok you lie to yourself, just a stupid meaningless cup, but you really know it isn't.

The irony about all this goes back to last season's final 13 games, no prizes for guessing which team were the only ones to beat us? West Ham, I hate 'em! And you can't spell irony without spelling iron, grrr!

Cheers Sussex, good luck everyone. :-)

Val H. | 22290 comments ... meanwhile, a few miles away, David is sitting down with a nice chilled glass of chablis, chicken in black bean sauce, girning about Spurs being 2-0 up at half-time and ready to stomp all over his claret and blue scarf, when, lo and behold, a miracle occurs .......


message 87: by TheFoe (new)

TheFoe | 2647 comments Let's hope his chablis was corked, (only joking David). Quarter final draw was a complete sham, should have been drawn in the North Atlantic cos it sure as hell was rigged!

Actually I was at the 100 club watching Tom Robinson and a fine gig it was too. Only checked the result afterwards and was well pleased. Shame about our league form though
