BBC FA Cup coverage this afternoon

[Mackenzie]

Yeah I enjoyed the bit I saw. I love the FA Cup.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

I liked the ground with a branch in front of the camera. Gloriously tinpot.

It was excellent to watch.

 

[Guinness Boy]

There was a veritable Albion PUNFEST as Danny Hollands goal was posted next to a report from the Lamex Stadium. Stevenage.

Got to agree with Edna, this was great. Kicked "Super Sunday" in the balls in fact.

 

[Pinkie Brown]

Pompey have just gone 2-1 down to Aldershot. Bahahahaha.

What? Surely Pompey should have had a bye to the third round on account of their superior status as a club?

 

[kevo]

Coverage has been excellent - certainly completely puts ITV to shame!

Would of course be great if the final reverted to after the end of the regular domestic season and 3pm on a Saturday, but I can't see it.

 

[mune ni kamome]

Enjoyed this very much but will the Man U, Arsenal and Liverpool fans feel the same as us. You need to have experienced these matches to really appreciate the tinpot ground romance.

ITV ? Apart from Matt Smith,nothing.

 

[Leekbrookgull]

Why so many 2pm kick offs

Home club keep the costs down,no Floodlights

It was a deliberate ploy by the BBC to have 12 matches shown this afternoon on simulcast as a means to improve coverage of the FA Cup and it seems to have worked, hopefully will be done the same in the 2nd & 3rd rounds too

Perhaps they feel guilty about purchasing their win and another cup final. They haven't won an FA Cup tie since 11-04-2010. Four and a half years.

Don't let us down, Aldershot.

Should of won battered them 2nd half ,still a small club like us taking it too the big boys [snigger] is what it's all about. Gate figures today at Fratton frankly smells like BS.

Was there any trouble?

Should certainly have happened, as a thank you to their Great Fans for all they have brought to the competition.

They won it in 2008, have they mentioned that?

Yep The Spoons at Fratton and The shephards Crook before Hand and The Milton Arms after .We drank in The White Swan down by The Guildhall and took in The Remembrance service ,where a local got nicked at 1102 for being a nuisance.Totally buzzing .

Reminds me of our cup trip to Aldershot. I'm probably wrong but feels like that was our last "old school" away trip. A 6-2 win and on match of the day I believe as we sung the theme tube when the sixth went in. Oatway with two I think?
