Fair play Exeter! Fully expect them to lose this in extra time but great result for them.
They can’t be playing fa cup matches on a Tuesday night though.

Great effort by Exeter. Unbelievable that even with 10 men they were creating chances. Nice to see some of the old FA Cup magic this year.

I moved to Cornwall in the summer and after 26 years as a Spurs ST holder I'm now an Exeter City ST holder. First time I've witnessed 1 of these games from the lower league teams perspective and it was incredible! Last 3 games we lost 3-1 to Blackpool, 6-2 to Orient and 4-1 to Stevenage then go and put that performance in last night! Atmosphere was incredible, if that Pat Jones effort had crept in or the full stretching Magennis got his toe on it place would've gone off.

I think Steve Perryman used to be involved with Exeter City - Director of Football back in the day maybe?

Yeah definitely. City v Plymouth maybe in the hope for an upset, but other than that it's all very meh.
Had that been at Plymouth I may have watched.
Ahhhh the 'magic' of the cup (and i absolutely agree)
The only one I can think of that could be a good game is Newcastle v Brighton, but even that I'm just like meh not bothered. Not enough lower league sides at home v Prem sides (actually none).

I think that I will give the whole lot a miss.

Have myself a carefree and football free weekend.

Would bet my life savings on City winning this year's FA Cup. They've had an absolute shit show of a season so far, especially after Pep signed a new contract. Considering they will likely finish top 5 at a canter I think this will be their priority to try and add a bit of shine.


As annoying as it'd be that it isn't us, I'd love for someone like Brighton, Bournemouth, Palace or Forest to win it.

I agree but I assume they checked it. Don't they check everything
I believe they did, at least with the old system you got a line.. No picture was show to see how it was on side…. If they are not going to show a picture that going to make it worse as you trusting a system which you hope has been implemented correctly and proven to be 100% accurate..
