Fair play Bristol City, they stuck at it and worked their socks off and Utd couldnt get away from them!!

[Main Street]

Perhaps the deathly grey shirt invisibility factor struck anew.

[Cunny Funt]

Fair play to Bristol City a winner in the 3rd minute of injury time to knock out the holders! rode their luck at times with United opportunities hitting the post a few times and penalty appeal ignored. They scored two fine goals and their keeper made some great saves 2nd half for effort alone they deserved that win. Pitch celebrations on the field added to the scenes of a great cup upset even though those on Sky don't agree

Great excitement in our house, sister has been living in Bristol for 20 years and is here with her kids one shouting for Utd and one for Bristol. I wouldn't begrudge them at all....

[StGallsGAA]

Can't begrudge Bristol an inch. That's what cup upsets are all about!  Unlike other top 6 sides who haven't won the league in a generation or a cup since God's knows when, United fans can enjoy Bristol's win knowing the next trophy is always just around the corner under Jose!   

[Captain Obvious]

Some energy Bristol City displayed tonight they fought to the finish and what a way to win. I love upsets its what makes any cup competition great must be Bristol Citys best cup victory since 1994 v Liverpool? In GAA meantime a "super 8" is brought in to increase the money gates and to stop a underdog from reaching the last 4...

I wouldn't begrudge them!!!! Aye right lads

Interesting one about Pogba. It's exactly 14 months since Pogba last lost a league game. Not bad for a dabbing, show pony.

October 23, 2016 certainly feels an awful long time ago. That statistic is astounding. Since the 4-0 defeat at Stamford Bridge, on Jose Mourinho's Chelsea return and when Manchester United's defence held out for 30 seconds before conceding, Pogba has started 41 Premier League games. He was won 27 and drawn the other 14. Without him starting, Manchester United have lost five and drawn six of their 18 league games.

Bristol City were superb but the over reaction in the media and social media is way over the top as usual.

Dont think it is over the top, Been very poor lately and lucky to pick up points. Got out of jail against Arsenal as we were played off the park came away with the points thanks to de gea.
Played off the park against City. Lucky as hell against West Brom and Bournemouth. Managers style of play is a joke. Too many show boats and weak links.

Serious questions about who autorised spending/ wasting 170M on buying Pogba and Lukaku both have been terrible since they arrived

Spent to over the odds on both players but i don't think many would agree with your view that they have been terrible since they arrived.

It is on the sports headlines but hardly OTT .  In an era when modern soccer is awfully predicable and dominated by money it is really great to see the small town team triumph over the big corporate global behemoth .
Rare it happens .  Any one from a GAA background should understand .

[magpie seanie]

Yeah - I don't know how else you expect the world to react to Pogba's unbeaten run being broken!!!! 

[Captain Obvious]

Caught out badly on the break for that Leicester City goal

[Cunny Funt]

Level at half time clever play by Lingard and a neat finish by Mata. Very open game, Leicester making the most out of much less possession and chances created.
