  1. Brecel was ill, apparently. Still, you'd think having struggled through nineteen frames you'd be able to give it a go for five minutes to try to force the snooker. If he was 9-4 down and with no real chance I'd have understood it more.

  2. Fair play Gilbert. Thought Brecel could have bothered his arse to play on with one snooker needed, though it did look a bit like he was about to cry.

  3. Yeah, and being honest Clyde beating Celtic is by far the best result the club has had in my lifetime but, in hindsight, we'd have been better off deliberately smashing the ball into our own net and taking a replay. I can't support any system that can lead to draws being better results than wins.

  4. Pretty much everyone thinks the FA Cup has lost some of its appeal in recent years, so happy for it to change. Think the removal of replays should lead to more shocks which can only be good. 

    Copa del Rey chose to abandon their "tradition" of boring two legged games and the competition has been much more exciting since. Maybe this will make the FA Cup better.

    I'd much rather see a lower/non-league team trying to win a game in the dying stages against Man U/Arsenal etc than keeping the ball in the corner to earn a money-spinning replay that they will lose five-nil.
