2016-17 FA Cup

Took a peak at Spurs schedule: They're away to Liverpool on the 11th, but then have a two legged knockout stage matchup in the Europa League. They're at Gent on the 16th (the home leg is on the 23rd), Fulham sandwiched on the 19th, then back in the Prem v Stoke on the 26th. So that's 5 matches in 15 days, including trips to Anfield and Belgium. They obviously have great players up and down the roster no matter whom they select, but it will be interesting to see what they prioritize.

 

Fox owns the US rights to the FA Cup so seeing as it is the only game in that time slot on Sunday, a more than likely chance it will be on FS1 (or FOX/FS2/FS Plus). But I would guess it will be on FS1.

 

Really bummed about the timing on this one. First, because I'll be on a plane at that time on that Sunday morning. Even worse - it's a flight home from San Antonio and a Saturday match would have given me a chance to watch a game with the world famous @HatterDon!

 

Lincoln City does it again!!! 0-1 at Burnley and the first non-league team to reach the quarters since 1914 (first ever non-league club to do it since the FA Cup was restructured in 1925).

 

I hope they didn't use up all the Cup upset magic! We're still gonna need some of that for tomorrow!
