I don't follow the FA Cup after we get knocked out, but just watching the local news, I was thrilled to see the Wufflers got knocked out after conceding a goal in injury time. Day Shah Voo? How they gloated after equalising so late at our place, when there was so much injury time, they scored about breakfast time on Sunday. Then filled their moneybags ground for the replay. I laughed like a drain when I saw the result tonight.
I've been over to Wolvo this afternoon. My Misses and her family are all yam yams, (my Son was a Salop fan until he came to his senses), but my Daughter refused several invitations to come over to the dark side, so she was gloating when it was 2 - 0. I told her, (in no uncertain terms, that if there was any justice, her favourites wouldn't even be in the competition). I just made the Miss Take of laughing and gloating in front of a very fiery dragon tonight, who's eyes blazed red, and fired off a volley in my direction.
I don't care. We've got 4 bedrooms, so I've still got a choice of three.
Har har har de har, Wolves are out!!!
All posts of sympathy for Wolves welcomed.....

I live in an area where there a quite a few wolves fans and it is a bit of a local joke that they like to wear the shirt around town when they win, but not when they lose. Plain clothes in Stafford tomorrow lads, what a shame.

I work with loads of Wolves fans, all top lads to be fair but I am making the most of this. Good to see Nuno is settling in at Wolverhampton. He bought a house the other day a 2 up 3 down.

The coffee tastes very sweet this morning, and I don't take sugar.

No good ever comes of beating the mighty Shrews!!!! Karma yet again.
2-0 is always a dangerous score as well.

Nuno no know what he doing. He thinks at 2-0 it’s game over, so I’ll take off the two best players. That shows no respect to Watford and wow, did he just learn the hard way? The first Watford goal though was a joy to behold- chipping a keeper the size of a young giraffe from 20 yards and still managing to get enough spin on the ball for it to curl and dip just under the bar and inside the post. The pressure on Deeney was immense, what with waiting for VAR, but did he ever look like missing the penalty? Not a chance. Well played Watford.

I only saw it from 2-0 (the best bit) but Wolves were outplayed and looked knackered. Can't understand why Nuno didn't rest players against Man United. Wouldn't you maximise your chances of getting to the Cup Final rather than a league game that makes no real difference?
Anyway, they got what they deserved. Fancy squandering a 2-0 lead so late in the game ….. Deulofeu was unbelievable. Never found myself supporting Watford before but I hope they beat City.

I was hoping they would win yesterday. I hope City win the quadruple but I was also hoping for a Man City v Wolves final as I think it would have been a better game for the neutral.

I suppose the Wolves manager deserves some credit for staying with Ruddy in goal all through the FA Cup but don't really think he is anything more than Championship standard at best.

It was all rather getting a little too close for comfort, even if it was Manchester waiting for them in the final. Well done Watford...

Credit for not picking your best team when you're on the verge of your first FA Cup Final since 1960 and first major final since 1980?

Ruddy has started every cup game, I applaud Nuno. Maybe if Hurst did the same we'd still have Craig Mac but there you go.

Watford are the better team, played wolves 3 times this season beaten them 3 times. Just because the media ignor Watford and drool over Wanky Wanky doesn’t make them a better spectical! As proved again yesterday, Watford playedbetter despite being 2 goals down.....

Well excuse me for having an opinion!
An opinion, unlike your clearly childish "Wanky Wanky" anti Wolves stance that is not based on any real like or dislike of either club or any Premier League club for that matter. Just a preference, as a neutral, for watching Wolves' style of football over Watford's style of football and my view that a Man City v Wolves final would be far more watchable for the neutral than Man City v Watford is likely to be.

Watford v Man City has more of an underdog feel to it for me. Wolves are just a notch down from the large 6 in the corporate fat cat stakes these days.

I'd go so far as to say they're just about the best side to watch I can remember and I admire Guardiola. I just think the quadruple, as well as being a first, would be a very fitting achievement for such a fine side. That said, Liverpool would also be very worthy Premier League champions this season.

I admit they're a great side. It's just that, unless I actually supported a particular team, I'd never want the same team to hoover up everything. I really hope Spurs beat them in the CL, Watford beat them in the Cup Final and they pip Liverpool to the title. Not that I'm entirely disinterested, being a United supporter …..

Your last line is the big giveaway. Given the choice, Man Utd fans would always prefer Man City to win the title rather than Liverpool. So how are they going to approach the match against City, knowing that beating them might well give Liverpool the title, but losing might keep United out of the top four? Mixed emotions eh?

To be honest, I'd like Man City win everything this year and next, if it meant spoiling the fun for the rich people's play things.

Not quite on a par with Guardiola's Barca side a short time past but nonetheless, a great side to watch play football for sure. As for seeing them win the lot, seems only fair that the club with the most money wins everything. It's what the modern game is about, its why we have the Premier League...

It is rather good fun seeing Manchester City join the party late and p**s on everyones chips. Not really what the big six had in mind at all...
