The Football.....

History made at Meadow Lane Nottingham today as for the first time ever the 1st round of the FA Cup will not feature Notts County; a 3-2 victory for Coalville in the 4th qualifying round. The home side falling victim to the old too many changes against a smaller side problem.

Looks like Notts County thought sod the FA Cup and the slight chance of a 'big draw payday' and chose to keep their better players for attempting to get back into the football league.

Bad day all round for Nottingham fans by the sound of things.

We've only gone and won!

Best bit was when our fans were chanting "we're winning one nil, how sh*t are you " they sang back "your winning one nil, how sh*t are we".

Good banter.

You missed out on some quality Twitter banter...

For once, most of this season it's been a case of

I wonder if we will get any posts about city fans chanting about hillsborough, vandalising the stadium and posting vile graffiti……i bet we dont.

That was a new low for the Manchester City 'fans' today. Even with a Mancunian referee CLEARLY on their side, when they knew they weren't going to get anywhere, they actually started singing 'God Save the King'! They started that one before the Hillsborough chants came out. The club have issued a statement deploring the chanting and the Hillsborough graffiti daubed on the walls in their section.

It was a terrific game and a real highlight of our season so far.

So are we saying Liverpool fans never did the Munich chant, or Man Utd fans never chanted Aberfan when they played at Cardiff.

Some pretty selective indignation on here.

Listened to bits and pieces of the football, in amongst the rugby and cricket today. Seems like Arsenal were the big winners today in England.

Good for City condemning the dickhead elements in their support, unlikely anything will come of it unless they go down the CCTV route I suppose.

And I bet we do get a post about Liverpool fans throwing coins at Guardiola

ETA - disgusting behaviour by the city fans

All indignation is selective.

It's football. What do you expect, reasonable non-partisan comments?

So what's wrong with that! Your mob booed our national anthem and Abide With Me before this year's FA Cup Final and if I remember rightly booed our national anthem at a match before that.👎

There's a video out there of the bloke the 'banty rooster' challenged, recalling the moment he was kind of squared up to. The bloke is about 6 foot four and 17 stone. He laughed about it, saying he didn't take offence.
