So in the round the PL clubs come in you want a lower league pundit on? It’s just not going to happen is it. They also covered it was a long time since we’ve been in the Fourth Round by saying it was the first time since 2000 (tbf this might have been the Five Live coverage on the way home) - not really sure what else you want them to say?

A non league team beat a team from the Championship away from home, scoring four goals and the game had everything. 7 goals, a sending off, a penalty, a comeback from Coventry with 10 men, who created chance after chance and hit the woodwork countless times.

I thoroughly enjoyed the highlights myself.

The town game was without much incident and we beat a team from the bottom end of the league above.

Quoted from LH
To all the people moaning about the coverage we got: could you tell me what other highlights from the game you’d have shown? We beat a (very) crap League One team with a goal deflected off someone’s bottom.

I get that but perhaps a mention that we've beaten three sides from the division above (including a dismantling of the division leaders) wouldn't have gone amiss?

They might have had time to talk about that if the match had produced some other highlights. They can only work with what we’ve given them.

The gripe is that it has been so long since we reached rnd 4 and since bbc gave us decent coverage.  It shouldn't depend how many goals we score or whether our owners are ex players or Hollywood film stars.

They could have given us a little bit more than just the goal!  Be interesting to tot up our coverage on MotD over 3 rounds, maybe 1 to 2 mins!?

Also, I'm not a Mark Chapman fan but his coverage of the cup draws has been thorough and professional. He was accompanied by Leon Osman and Stephen Warnock who have little lower league or Cup insight. Warlock rabbited on about what a good managed Phil Parkinson is?  Maybe a pundit who watches lower league teams?  At least for example Dion Dublin had his Cambridge utd links etc







Nope, still not getting it. The game was poor , one goal and you want some kind of extended highlights that quite frankly didn’t exist in the game

I said I wanted more than the few seconds we got, I never said extended highlights. I agreed with another posters gripe that's all.  Many games got some interview with the managers for example.

To mention that we had beaten higher division opposition in the previous rounds would have required a bit of research. Little chance of that happening when they are knocking together a highlights package from dozens of games to a tight schedule.

The penalty which was denied might have made it because it was simply such a bizarre decision, but otherwise, not much in the way of highlights from that game.

Let's hope we give them a selection of highlights to show after the next game - providing they aren't in our own box!
