And congrats to Mansfield, shame the game's going to be shown on ESPN though! I don't have that channel. This ^ I could always watch it on a stream, but having given up watching Reading games on streams this season i prob won't bother. And didn't realise there were so many Mansfield connections in the game. Lincoln manager David Holdsworth used to manage Mansfield, the Lincoln goal scored by Adam Smith a former Manfield player, and the winner from Briscoe who was signed by Holdsworth!

And our goalie used to play for Lincoln before us There were only so many connections because Holdsworth signed 50 players when he was here, and then the new manager got rid of 95% of them! Most of them back to Lincoln! So glad Brand Holdsworth lost! Oh and I wouldn't watch the Liverpool game, they should beat us easily in a very one sided game.

One thing I was wondering, will you be going to the game?

Dont think I can get tickets, no season ticket this year, and it seems to be you can only pick one ticket up, so my dad might go with one of my other brothers if there are any left on general sale at the end. I'll watch it in our lounge in the warmth, and hope this spurs us on up the table so we can crack the playoffs and I'll get to those games, because getting out of this league is worth even more money (750k) and far more important than a one off game where we'll get stuffed as the poor battling non league team

How many replays are shown live? Unless the Swansea v Arsenal game is a draw tomorrow then the obvious choices seem to be Man U v West Ham and Bournemouth v Wigan.

Leicester beat Burton and become the Haven team! Some great goals on the highlights show, and nice to see Macc beat Cardiff, cant say the same for Luton beating Wolves. West Brom or Aston Villa to have home ties in round 4 please.

Good win for Reading yesterday. When i saw that we made 7 changes (only expected a few) and not much of an insurance policy in attacking options on the bench I could see a replay (especially when they then scored in the first 15 seconds!) Good job i'd already put my prediction in Next round i'll take any home draw, but Man Utd at home would be nice as i'd go with a Man U mate to the game. Had enough of us playing Spurs this season so not them please!

if i said a vile little rat faced **** cheated because liverpool couldn't beat a none league team i doubt you would need more than one guess as to who i mean. if the handball wasn't bad enough he ran off grinning slyly pointing at his wrist like he did something amazingly clever

Think how it feels for a Mansfield Town fan The fact that we were on top at that point and they had just stopped a backheel on the line with an arm, makes it doubly difficult to take!

However did you guess? It really was blatant and the way he pointed at his arm just added to it. Then people wonder why he's unpopular. Why can't commentators just refer to him as "cheating racist bar steward"? We would all know who they meant.

He'd been doing so well recently as well, although as far as deliberate handballs go it certainly wasn't the most obvious, his arm was naturally out there and it didn't have to move much, I also thought from the way he kicked the ball in the back of the net and how long it took him to start celebrating that he thought it was going to be given as handball.
I'd also hardly consider Brighton beating that Newcastle side an upset. It's quite sad to see sides that are so ravaged by injuries, bar Krul it was probably their strongest XI possible, yet only contained a maximum of 3 of their actual strongest XI.

I always thought Newcastle would struggle t Brighton. As for Suarez pointing to his arm, kissing it etc, he does that after every goal, but how can the match officials miss it, or did they think it was acceptable? Murray, watch the fa cup highlights, or find it on the bbc website, youtube or wherever.

Definitely a clear handball but not delibrate and he was hardly going to admit it. Blame the officials, not Suarez, doubt any player would have done different.

even liverpool fans i know are saying they are ashamed not just of suarez but the plastic fans that cheer his every vile act, he could pick up an uzi and shoot 7 people on the pitch and some liverpool fans would defend his actions and as for being so good recently, yeah he has gone 8 or 9 games without cheating, well played son, how grown up of you he is going for the full collection, giving fans the finger at fulham, diving, spitting his dummy out, racially abusing oponents, blocking goals on the line using his hand to rob ghana....scoring goals with his hand to rob mansfield, biting people like a radged canibal, rolling around the floor to get people sent off, brawling in the tunnel at h/t when some liverpool player spat on de gea. now that player was never named but suarez was 5 feet away so call me a cynic sotb.bluefields.com/sotb-topics/thepros/luis-suarez-%E2%80%93-the-modern-footballer/
