Mentioning this since I seem to recall Leon is a Middlesbourgh supporter....the old factory was just up the road from their ground.

Boro' got through to the 5th round of the FA Cup on penalties this morning after beating Man U at Old Trafford.....

That's a bit of an upset, though Man U has been struggling themselves in the last few years.

Still quite an acheivement by 'Boro though  :-bd

There's eight countries play the game and we're four of 'em - Max Boyce.

Yeah, that was quite a jammy win there!  Man Utd should have had that one finished by half-time but when you miss a penalty, hit the bar, hit the post and miss an open goal, you've only got yourself to blame!

And they've done it again, this time putting Spurs to the sword  :o   

Looks like Spurs were more "spursy" than usual and threw in hte towel again.....one game they beat Man City who are leading the EPL and then they put on woeful performances against Burnley in the EPL and in the FA Cup v 'Boro

"It's enough to make you weep"  :'(

And another big win!  Annoyingly I was watching on delay (paused it briefly to cook tea) so I didn't realise they'd switched to BBC2 at 10pm and I missed the goal... :'(

I think the draw is tomorrow night so let's see who we get to knock out next...  :P

Having the 5th round as evening games has been an inspired choice. Helped by the 'big' clubs generally being away to the 'smaller'. Some excellent atmospheres.
