That Walcott goal should not have counted. No way. I know they've changed the rules governing non-interfering offside players (Bendtner) but he bowled over a pursuing defender from an offside position, thats interference in the play and hence the initial offside has to be called.

What is the deal with 'FC United of Manchester?'
Swindon Supermarine is indeed a pretty sweet name.

In 2005, after Glazer took over Manchester United, fans were so pissed off that the ManUre had gone to foreigners that they formed their own club!
So FC United of Manchester was invented!

I see. I think the FA and the EPL should step in and say that none of the Manchester teams is allowed to use the term 'United' in their names as none of them seem to grasp the meaning of that concept.

They should really be called Salford United as Old Trafford is in Salford and not Manchester.

Revisiting this because I just noticed, If MK Dons wins their replay on Tuesday and AFC Wimbledon win the replay on Thursday... they'll play each other! And it would be at AFC Wimbledon's ground! That would be violent and sad too!

So much for that. MK Dons are out. They gave up an injury time equalizer and then lose on penalties to Stevenage.

3rd time this season that the Albion have given up injury time goals - all when leading by a single tally. By all accounts that is 6 dropped points. Not sure what they are playing at. You don't win leagues by dropping points in injury time to bottom-feeders (Bournemouth excepted).
