It's impressive how awful Taylor continues to be.

Rashford just absolutely hacked down from behind nowhere near the ball by Porro and he totally ignores it.

It's ok, he's no longer a United player, we don't have to care.

Plymouth to face Man City in 5th round.

Aston Villa with a favourable draw as well, Cardiff being their opponents.

 

[hatterson]

Brighton/Newcastle, Bournemouth/Wolves, and United/Fulham are the "big" matchups.

The same forces that gave Liverpool a half hour of stoppage time yesterday controlled the draw today. Gah. Manchester is a miserable draw, second worst possible behind Newcastle (for travel reasons).

Especially a shame because Exeter City (the actual local derby) are still in it, and West Country derbies almost never happen because the clubs are generally in different divisions.

 

[Savant]

Yeah, as long as LFC beats Everton on Wednesday no one is going to care they went out

Counterpoint: win the next one and Plymouth might have one of the best FA Cup stories of all time

Brighton/Newcastle

Brutal draw for Brighton...

 

[GeoRox89]

Well that was a bit embarrassing needing penalties against Exeter

 

[AlanHUK]

great game for the neutral, throw back to what life was like as a Forest fan for the last 20 years for us though

at least 1 championship team will be in the quarter final, and I'm incredibly happy we didn't get draw an automatic loss against Bournemouth

Preston North End v Burnley
Aston Villa v Cardiff City
Crystal Palace v Millwall
Manchester United v Fulham
Newcastle United v Brighton & Hove Albion
AFC Bournemouth v Wolverhampton Wanderers
Manchester City v Plymouth Argyle
Nottingham Forest v Ipswich Town

Millwall down to 10 from the 9th minute after their keeper flagrantly and recklessly kicks JP Mateta in the head. Mateta was given oxygen on the pitch and is now in hospital. Millwall fans continue to be scum of the earth, chanting “Let Him Die” from the away end.

Only saw the clip, but one of the most shocking challenges I’ve ever seen. Hope Mateta has no long-term effects there. And Michael Oliver had to go to the screen to call that a red
