Busta Rhymes is an unstoppable movement
what does it being on telly have to do with it? it's an FA Cup 1/4 final. As you say it's a championship team, playing a Premiership team. you'd have thought that would make it a nice big occasion.
Even the much maligned boro fans managed to fill their stadium, probably for the first time this season. Even though it's on the telly.
How are they "rubbish fans"? when your lot didn't even go in the first place?
people in glasshouses and all that.
Still, as I said before, enjoy the victory. You deserved it.

Fair play to the Boro supporter on the TalkSport phone in.
Classy in defeat.
Makes a change from some of the premiership supporters that've been on this week.

Well, they certainly weren't singing much, but anyone who leaves the ground with 10 minutes to go at such a vital game - especially when playing a team a division below - certainly qualifies as a 'rubbish fan' in my book.
This was Boro's best shot at having a real chance of winning the FA Cup and it was like the fans couldn't be bothered to get behind them.
But then I've never understand why people leave so early at any ground. I'd call any Cardiff fans leaving so early equally rubbish too.

I was liking Barnsley until I realised the sheer, deep Jackness of their manager.Agreed. I want City to play Barnsley in the semi and teach that Jack manager of theirs a lesson

Best team in the league.
get me a ticket and i'm coming.
Is "Jackness" something to do with being from Swansea? To paraphrase Alan Partridge, I sometimes have problems understanding the Welsh... people.
Anyway, superb game, with Jones having obviously analysed the strengths and weaknesses of both teams and set up Cardiff to exploit 'Boro's faults. they hassled them at every loose ball and 50-50, kept the ball moving the whole time and did some sublime one- and two-touch interchanges. They also totally cut Downing off, who was responsible for the sole piece of excitement that 'Boro managed in the full 90 minutes when he turned his man early on before delivering a massively overhit cross. I guess what surprised me was how woeful 'Boro were at defending Cardiff's excellent crosses, given how strong an aerial defender Southgate was as a player.

I agree.
Ramsey was great.
Ramsey was great.
He definitely was. The only bad thing about him is that he ain't English. Why can Wales produce so many decent left sided players (Speed, Giggs, Bale, etc), yet England have to play a right-footed central midfielder in Joe Cole out there? It's so unfair.
However, my man of the match was McNaughton, who seemed to be everywhere, with his full head of 25 year old grey hair.

Explain?
I support one of the big four, but I can't be bothered to re-post what I said a few further previous posts back.

What a day. Was kept behind in the stadium for ages but we loved it. Was a big party with the players coming over to the stand to do the ayatolah. Boro's support was rubbish. Forget leaving ten mins early. Load went to watchbit in the bar the moment the second goal went in. It was mad.

Is a great bunch of lads.....
Really?
I support one of the big four and I think the way the FA cup is panning out this season is brilliant for the competition which has become stale and predictable over the last few years, Middlesborough will never get a better chance to win it again,they'll be kicking themselves

Most clubs do it on previous attendance on previous rounds, but of course depends how sophisicated your club is at tracking these things. If there is no computer system in place then odds are you may have to provide ticket stubs or tokens from programmes or something.
If they don't even do that, then I guess it's a free for all down the ticket office on the day they go on sale.
For City tickets it will be 'Ambassadors' first, then ST holders, then previous rounds' ticket holders, then general sale.

We could make it fair and swap Bale for the England starting XI, you can keep Beckham of course.
