They want to secure their Premier League status though.

Forest Green 3 - 4 Derby.

If Camara had taken that early chance we would have gone on to win IMO. Also Frazer Campbell (little ) was a bit lucky to get the penalty.

Well done to Nottingham Forest, Southend and Hartlepool for getting good results against Premiership teams. Hopefully Southend can finish the job in the replay.

Robbie Keane is the only reason Preston are still in this game, he has missed about 8 chances.

sheffield wednesday played fulham today and we were unlucky to lose 2-1 with 3 minutes left, considering we ddint have enough players to fill our bench we gave them plenty of problems.
we had a total of 10 home grown academy players in our squad of 16 inc 5 u18's on the bench

and these premiership teams complain about having a couple of injuries !!

Went to see Forest and I was well impressed. As I dont get to see them that often I was glad to see them actually score!! Then they surprised me in scoring 3 times!!!

City were absolute garbage.

The Draw

Liverpool vs Everton
Southampton/Man Utd vs Spurs
Hull City/Newcastle vs Millwall/Crewe
Sunderland vs Blyth/Blackburn
Hartlepool vs West Ham
Leyton Orient/Sheffield United vs Charlton/Norwich
Cardiff vs Arsenal
Portsmouth/Bristol City vs Histon/Swansea
Chelsea/Southend vs Ipswich
Cheltenham/Doncaster vs Aston Villa
West Brom/Peterboro vs QPR/Burnley
Torquay vs Coventry
Kettering Town vs Fulham
Watford vs Leicester/Palace
Derby vs Nottingham Forest
Birmingham/Wolves vs Middlesboro

The merseyside derby and Spurs Vs Utd look to be the picks of the draw.

Derby away

They do? I'd actually pick out Derby-Forest as the stand out tie, proper mean derby. Don't think Arsenal will like it at Ninian, nor will Coventry and Fulham have comfortable afternoons.

More to life than the Premier League, tha knows.

Martin O'Neil was a bit of a tool yesterday. Going potty (well I say potty- fidgeting even more in the dugout rolling up his sleeves frantically) when lightweight Young was fouled. Yes it was a bad challenge but did he forget the identical one in the first half made by Davies?

Same can be said about the Southampton boss. Can understand why he was a bit peeved but to say the red card was undeserved was pretty silly in my opinion. The offside was tight as well

I felt for Gillingham yesterday when that penalty was awarded. It was really soft, and for a club like that, a replay at Villa would be a real money spinner, never mind for the playrs getting to play at a venue like that etc. You see every day, these tiny clubs going into administration and the referee could quite easily have cost the Gills an awful lot of £££'s.

I was impressed with them, thought it was agreat cup tie, they played well, deserved a replay.

Gillingham played really well. Villa's set pieces were awful yesterday.

So you rate Forest v Derby higher than the Liverpool v Everton? Well I guess someone has to..
