I dunno why people like you can't see that we were mentally gone after the Semi. Not saying that's a good thing or an excuse but it is the reason.

It's something we need to work on for sure but it doesn't mean the team is bad or that we can't complete.

You're taking the piss?

Our performance in the FA Cup shadowed performing in the league that was more of a long shot than last season, which again was a fluke.

This could be a long night.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen Peps Man City play as badly as this. Comical defending and no cutting edge up front.

Haaland has been absolutely pocketed.

Alabama hot-pocketed?

 

[ccfc922]

This could be a long night.

We did well last season to sneak into it, hit form and against the odds made the play off Final.

Who knows, anyone can say xyz should have happened. Just like we should have been there today.

 

[eyesee]

i'd like to think we would have got something out of today if we'd played the man city that turned up. but we'll never know.
fair play to united, though. they played well today. the bastards.

Saw something interesting today, Man City threw the game to let Man U into the CL/Europe?

Makes sense when you look at our SF.

What???

Fucking rigged asterisk cup final

fuck off

 

[Tommo1993]

Understood people were bitter. But some theories I’ve read today, and “the losers of the semis won the final” are pathetic.

 

[ccfc922]

What???

Believe the last Europe place was left open if Man U won today? This is 2nd hand info.

Acid?

Pretty accurate though isn't it?

I'd rather have been dicked 5-0 by City in the final, than be cheated out of a chance to play for the FA Cup...

Social media? What's the score?

Thought the FA Cup winners get into Europe, no?

Not really. We ultimately lost the game. People should’ve been past it ages ago.

Rather united win it than city .. there , I said it

 

[Tommo1993]

Football teams get robbed sometimes.

You could argue that Notts County were robbed in the L2 play offs in 2018. But it wouldn’t suit the narrative.

 

[Tommo1993]

Sort of didn’t mind either way. Not sure it’s worth our fans clogging up Samaritans regardless.

 

[ccfc922]

If Wan-Bisakas foot wasn't drawn over, or they took it from the end of O'Hares scoop, or it was clear n obvious, or they'd decided to scrap VAR before, or if they pick and choose when to use VAR, or it depends when they use VAR on which stage of the competition... then I'd probably be over it.

That's before the Man U players crying and the officials giving the winning goal.

If Haji was a yard/clearly offside, I'd be able to get it. Quite simple really.

 

[ccfc922]

They've spent just as much as City to achieve fuck all, so it's not as much of a flex that they won.

(If we'd of lost to wolves, I'd of probably preferred they won over City from a "footballing" point of view, but ultimately its the same financial shite)

 

[eyesee]

the truth is....... we need to practice our penalty taking.

Me too....

i didn't watch it tho... I went on a cycle ride via 4 beer gardens

The emoji I need to respond to this hasn't been invented yet.

Practise all you like. No amount of penalties at a training ground is the same as penalties in front of a full Wembley + millions of viewers.

Any professional will tell you.

Do Man U winning today not get to European football?

This ^^ add to what Robins said about resetting focus and adrenaline levels after thinking you'd got a last minute winner.

Factor in that we lost both coin tosses we were fecked

That rule needs changing, if you get to pick what end, then the other team gets to go first automatically. I'd support that on the winning end of the toss.

The supporters end always had the advantage regardless.

They do, Europa league. As a result Chelsea are in the conference cup and Newcastle miss out all together

fair. point. but it can't hurt. especially if you have forfeits if you miss.
there's only so many times you can jog around the training ground. might help focus the mind a bit.

They did practice

Yes

in that case, to quote calista, "The emoji I need to respond to this hasn't been invented yet."

Runners up medals.
And another long wait in the coach park.

 

[ccfc922]

Yes

Then seems orchestrated. Couldn't have pathetic, little Cov in Europe over United.
