Well, a fiver on a 0-0 at 9-1 looked good odds and so it was, combined with the cheltenham winnings the drinks are on me on saturday I'll admit that I couldn't be arsed to go tonight as I finish work too late and it was also on sky (shoot me). Fair play to those who went though, clearly audible on sky. I doubt Anfield has seen a better defence all season, bearing in mind we had NEJ (complete with sh*t tash), Neill and Matteo on the pitch at times thats remarkable. P.s anyone think Matteo looked pretty damn fast tonight for some reason?

An absolute joke if we play at noon on the Saturday. The whole pathetic organisation of the semi's really does beggar belief. I don't know of a single person who thinks the arrangements are sensible. I'll go whatever the kick off time as I've never seen my team in an FA cup semi final, the FA themselves are doing a damn fine job of wrecking the whole event though.

Agree with that, he's really starting to irritate me. Moan moan bloody moan all the time, can only imagine how annoying it must be for the opposition fans. As soon as I heard the team and that Dickov was the lone frontman I felt negative thoughts flooding into my head. I was really hoping Stead would play from the start, with or without Dickov.

We discussed the same last night. Got potential to be a good area to sit (or stand in last nights case) in the section towards the Darwen End. i was sat there, right next to the Darwin end, and except from the fifteen minutes at the beginning of the second half when the whole ground went quiet, i was on my feet singing from start to finish- quality atmosphere. Something tells me it will be a bit different against leicester though Was like an away match in there last night. You're probably right though, against Leicester it'll probably be crap. If away teams were given the Riverside portion of the Darwen end every game then It'd be a good place for banter though. Full marks to the stewards again though, anyone wishing to stand was ushered to our section to sing their hearts out for the lads.

T'was a quality night in the riverside last night. Fair play to the stewards who didn't complain about us wishing to stand too

A very dull 0-0

Who compared him to Beckham? Presumably the press? He couldn't be more different to Beckham if he tried

To be honest the B'burn end wasn't very loud at all from where I was stood (block of riverside nearest Darwen end).

20 of us are all set for an Ossy-B'burn pub crawl commencing 11am Tuesday. Riverside beware

My 5 ordered on Tuesday arrived this morning

Probably because a large number don't use Email on a regular basis?

just over 1minute per person is extremely quick. I know, they're working flat out. Took me little over a minute once I got through.

I was in the queue at 43 and it took just over 40 mins, so around 1 minute per customer. Nothing at all wrong with the ticket office's handling of the situation. I just stuck my phone on speaker and picked it up when i was 1st in the queue. If you haven't got time for that then surely you have a mate that can?

How many you got so far Dave? Just wondered cos going down Saturday and thought they might restrict me to 4 as the sometimes do I've now bought 10 in total. 4 seems a bit harsh if you've got decent history??!

Just ordered another 5 tickets for the riverside after a 40 minute wait

The gloved moron on the pitch was an example of the minority in every town, not football club, it's daft to tar Burnleys loyal support with the same brush. I doubt he's been to many (if any) games at the turf this season, regardless of his ban. The fact that he punched a woman full in the face speaks volumes about the kind of person he is, I suspect he had a very rough night in the cells. Lets not forget the idiot who tried to confront the referee after one of our games back in 95(?).

Probably the easiest draw we could have asked for but it's all set up for a typical Rovers cock up! After all we SHOULD be capable of beating Burnley away too.

Wouldn't mind Bolton at Ewood.

They can't win really though. Look at the bees average home crowd.

Should have just posted this bit, the most relevant bit.

Name-check them then...........

Hate the man himself, not the club. Up the 'Gers. He just reminds me of a soft lad who mouths off behind his mates. The more I look at his mardy little face the more I want to stamp on it.

Or a mods after slipping Debs a length. Either way its WRONG

No point, they could google there way through it! Should be a chatroom event, both posters at the same PC to avoid any sneaky googling. Agree with 1864 apart from the Vs day comments, my old man wouldn't speak to me again if I let my lass go before me
