Was at the Forest game. Absolutely turgid football. Did not really deserve to go through!

LOVED Gibbs-White taunting the Wolves fans after his pen. Football needs more of that shit!

A Wolves player took the piss out of him for doing it after they scored their pen, then there was a bit of handbags between them after the whistle!

Southampton vs Newcastle

Nottingham Forest vs Manchester United

I’d be so stoked if we get through! First game is away as well which is better imo! Finish at St James!

Gunna try and get down to the away leg. Got a couple of season ticket holders who can help hopefully.

If, big IF, we get to the Final I’m deffo keen to go to Wembley! Never been!
Remember the last final we got to and me and mates watched it while eating burgers. Very wholesome.
Think that was 99.

So the Weghorst to United deal is done then, I think he’ll do pretty well.

Massive if, but you are welcome to stop at my place. About 40 min drive to Wembley. I have no fucking idea how to get tickets for that.

This is who Chelsea have bought since the takeover in May. I don’t think Iv seen much of this lot play for Chelsea and they are 10th. 9 first team players out, I feel sorry for Graham Potter because he’s gone soon.

Not for me even taking my old gold tinted glasses off. Wolves gave the lad his career. Yes he was getting shit from the fans (some justified, most not) but have some class.

Cunha doing it back to mock him was pure class. MGW then wanting to scrap him after the game again showing no class.

Strong chance of Newcastle winning it now @nedertron!

Saying Cunha doing it back was ā€œpure classā€ is a bit rich really. Just funny to see all that shithousery. I like it all. More please!

Sorry that wasn’t the right wording. Pure comedy probably better, and the shithousery was great.

I think celebrating against a former is a poor look but doing it against the club you came through the academy with us poor. Even worse when it’s in a shootout and not a goal in open play. Dunno just felt cheap.

Didn’t help we got shafted by officiating again.

Yeah I get it’s probably harder to take since he was your player for so long. As a neutral it was great to see all of that ā€˜banter’ between the players and the crowd. I’m always hyped on that stuff!

Somehow forest have become a bit it a rivalry for us. The social media post earlier in the season and this now will create quite a cauldron the best time we play each other.

JoĆ£o FĆ©lix getting a straight red in his debut is both the funniest possible outcome and the most Atleti thing he could’ve done.

He was playing quite well up until that moment. 6 month loan spell and now banned for 3 games :joy:

Still don’t get that transfer. Understand it from the player and athleti’s point of view, especially given the financial state they are in. But don’t get it from Chelsea’s. Hell of a player but 6 months loan and no option or anything seems such poor business. The pessimist (realist) in me wonders how much of a favour this may of been with a few brown envelopes going certain ways. Especially when you consider Mendes is his agent…
