2021-22 FA Cup

[Goonerred]

Apparently villa were by far the better team

Controversial var decision as well

Haven't seen it

I watched the first half, Villa did everything but score.

[Goonerred]

Ronaldo was dropped for this game, not even on the bench (or he decided himself not to play) - or as Ragnick claimed for a 'minor muscle injury'. Yeah, right.
Utd put out a very strong team with Cavani up front instead.

Villa's goal was disallowed after it was ruled Cavani had been pushed in the build up... very very soft decision for Utd and it took nearly 4 minutes to make the decision. One wonders how a 'clear and obvious' error can take nearly 4 minutes to decide upon.

I think the VAR team should have two minutes to make a decision, if they can't find a reason to disagree with the ref, then the on pitch offical's decision should stand. All these lines that they put in to see if it's offside or not taking five minutes or more to decide is ridiculous. We can see on replays if someone is off or not etc. It shouldn't take VAR more than two minutes, three maximum.

Seen it. Right decision made. Gerrard also accepts it.

Problem was it took far too long for one of the simpler VAR decisions.

Cavani taken out completely by a guy who's also offside.

Sensible.
I think 2 mins is plenty… probably even 1 min is better. If it’s clear and obvious it should be easy.

They are supposed to be just overturning clear and obvious mistakes, not giving us all a half hour geometry lesson. It's not clear and obvious if it takes a long time to decide.

Chelsea doing exactly what they need to do v farmers and pubbers

Hope our players are taking note

When do we play a team in the 5th tier of English football?
Don't think our players need to take note of anything as Chelsea's game against Chesterfield at Stamford Bridge is irrelevant to us.

We have a much tougher game away to Nottm Forest, who are in the 2nd tier of English football.

16/17 we beat Lincoln 5-0 and they were promoted to the league that season
