I totally disagree with this comment. I think the games to follow in the semi's and the final will be very exiting. Im a Man Utd fan and last years FA Cup final was one of the most boring matches i have ever watched. The 4 in the finals now thouroughly deserve to be there. Barnsley to win they deserve it the most.

As a Liverpool fan, im gutted, but beating Chelsea the other night was great and made me think of how much they actually deserve it, so now i want to see Barnsley winning the cup

Barnsley played with courage and at times with some good football considering the so-called "gap" between the league positions. It begs the question why do clubs such as Everton; Man City; Portsmouth et al, when they play the top four at home can't they play with that same courage and take encouragement from Barnsley to show what can be done with just that little more positive thinking? Avram Grant got what he deserved at Wembley and at Barnsley and the quicker he realises caution and poor team selection doesn't win the big games the better.

My answer to TeaTime At Harrods.You are obviously not a true football fan. Welldone to Barnsley Cardiff WBA. Portsmouth beware you could be the next ones out. I,m looking forward to my 1st cup final for years.My only wish is that Huddersfield had dumped Chelsea out in the last round.Maybe we softend them up a bit for Barnsley

I didn't watch the game live as why bother, it was a forgone conclusion, the £100M+ team were on paper going to steam roller over the struggling Championship side.
It would have been too painfull to watch even as a neutral, where would the sport have been in such a technical miss-match.

Oh what, the underdogs won ?? !!!

I was in the car listening to news reports when the 1-0 was anounced on the radio. Those next 20 minutes were so tense with no way enough news reports on the game.

Maybe RA & uncle fester should leave the managing of the team to someone who knows how to. A get some decent advisers rather than the Yes men he has around him that have no real interest in the team other it just lining their pockets.

Well done Barnsley. We salute you !!

PS anyone get a pic of RA's face at the end ?

Look on Roman's face as his Chelski miss out on another piece of silver wear..... Priceless

I'm half Welsh & just seen you've drawn against Cardiff in the semis.
Good luck to both teams !!!
