Congratulations to Blue Square / Conference league team Histon for today's giant killing display against former European champions Leeds United.It was only seventeen years ago that Histon, a village with a population of 4000, had a small club which comprised just a field and a shed but has since grown into a respectable non-league affair with a following that's sure to increase after today's result (they now face Swansea in the next round).
Today's result will no doubt please Stray Photon who celebrated his 50th birthday yesterday (go and wish him well over at www.sprayingtherays.blogspot.com). Neil Warnock will celebrate his 60th tomorrow after a frustrating 0 - 0 home draw against west London pikeys QPR. Oh how we laughed as we sang: "You're rich, and you're fucking shit...", a chant which must be sweet music to the lugholes of any seasoned Bees fan - and God knows they need cheering up after being knocked out of the FA Cup by Barrow. Mind you, Ben Hamer should know better not to foul in the box - but at least it shows that he's been house trained. Perhaps it's a case of bad karma after their shirt pulling antics in the previous round?
Palace will play Leicester City in the next round, 'cos we likes the dirty sex.

Is Tottenham v Wigan the only clash of the "big boys" (ha ha)?
Was it rigged this year?
Well dispite a boring 0-0 at home Gillingham need to dig deep to beat Stockport on the replay as then we'll have Villa at home!!! Just like the days when we had Leeds ... oh! Well you know... To be fair Fowler was in that team that day :-)
Oh if only I knew anything about football I could join in with this discussion. I liked the line ''cause we liek the dirty sex' but didn't understand it. Should I?
I love a good cup-a too.
"Is Tottenham v Wigan the only clash of the "big boys" (ha ha)?"
Wicked irony Geoff - pretending you'd forgotten all about Hull v. Newcastle like that. Almost as funny as describing Tottingham as 'big boys'...

Geoff - I blame The Ambassador.
Furtheron - Yes. I quite like Villa's colours that they wear. Palace copied them when they were starting out. Rather them than City, I suppose.
Col - I'll have to let you listen to the "Gary & Ash" song for you to understand that 'dirty sex' reference.
MoMad - I'll only opt for builders' tea that they bring you in a greasy spoon. Failing that, tomato flavour Cup-A-Soup is a good second best.
Bob - Good for Hull, I say! What did you think when they beat Arsenal at The Emirates? Superb...
;-P
