FA Cup 3rd Round draw - Predict who we'll get!

[nightgoat]

If I am right in thinking we lost that game 3-0, but the rules stated that away goals only counted after extra time, in which we grabbed two late goals.

Horror show from Ben Alnwick in goal.


Anyone know when tix might be available?

Yeah, fucking hell, Ben Alnwick in goal. Although how that ref gave Burnley a free kick for their own handball for that first goal I don't know. Jay Rodriguez took it to extra time. That miss at 02:20, just as well we got rid of that waster.

 

[Bobbins]

Yeah, that was the year after we won it. Won the first leg 4-1 and lost the second leg 3-2. Pav saved us, I seem to recall.

I just found the BBC live text and match report!

1914: "Any normal person can't actually think Burnley, who are on a woeful run, can see off Spurs with a three-goal deficit? It can't be possible, it just can't."

1921: BURNLEY v TOTTENHAM LINE-UPS
Burnley: Jensen, Alexander, Duff, Carlisle, Jordan, Elliott, Eagles, Gudjonsson, McCann, Blake, Paterson.
Subs: Penny, Kalvenes, McDonald, Akinbiyi, Mahon, Rodriguez, MacDonald.
Tottenham: Alnwick, Gunter, Woodgate, Dawson, Assou-Ekotto, Bentley, Zokora, Huddlestone, O'Hara, Modric, Defoe.
Subs: Cesar, Bale, Pavlyuchenko, Giovani, Campbell, Taarabt, Rocha.
Referee: Mark Halsey (Lancashire)

1938: Spurs gaffer Harry Redknapp is going to learn something tonight whatever the result - he'll be watching their goalkeeper Ben Alnwick very closely indeed as he comes in for the injured Heurelho Gomes. "I don't know an awful lot about the lad," admitted honest Harry.

1942: The teams are out. We're about to get under way. They're probably soaked already. What a leveller.

1951: That was nearly the greatest own goal of all time. The ball falls to Benoit Assou-Ekotto 40 yards from the Spurs goal and the left-back tries to pass it back to Ben Alnwick, but it ends up being a curler towards the top corner that the keeper tips behind for a corner.

2019: GOAL Burnley 1-0 Tottenham Spurs just don't do normal goalkeepers, do they? Robbie Blake hits a free-kick from 35 yards around the wall and into the corner of the Tottenham net, with Ben Alnwick giving him a lot of the goal to aim at. Alnwick was even moving the other way - he was expecting a cross, wasn't he?

2108: Jamie O'Hara has limped off for Spurs and been replaced by Gareth Bale, who has a much better record in cups for Tottenham than he does in the Premier League.

2109: Gareth Bale races on to Didier Zokora's pass down the left and he gets into a 'shall I cross or shoot' position inside the Burnley box, but he doesn't really do either and the ball bounces wide. Poor effort from the young Welshman.

2118: GOAL Burnley 2-0 Tottenham You know what? This ain't over. Wade Elliott threads a fine ball out to the left to Robbie Blake, who twists and turns past Chris Gunter and tricks his way into the area, crossing perfectly for Chris McCann to tap in from five yards out. Game very much on.

2123: You've got to score them, whoever you are. Gareth Bale gets into loads of space down the left and his cross finds Roman Pavlyuchenko unmarked in the box, but the Russian is leaning back and his left-foot shot flies off target.

2133: GOAL Burnley 3-0 Tottenham Oh. Oh my. Robbie Blake lofts a long free-kick into the heart of the Tottenham area and Ben Alnwick, coming through about a million players, cannot get enough on the ball, it lands at the feet of local lad Jay Rodriguez, who coolly volleys left-footed into the net. Turf Moor erupts in extraordinary fashion.

2208: Adel Taarabt tries a shot from fully 40 yards that takes a deflection and spins into the arms of Brian Jensen. It's pathetic shooting from there at this stage, absolutely pathetic. Someone spell out the word 'mixer' to that young man.

2213: GOAL Burnley 3-1 Tottenham I can't believe it. Gareth Bale is down the left, outside the Burnley area, and he clips a pass in for Benoit Assou-Ekotto, who pulls the ball back to around the penalty spot for Roman Pavlyuchenko, who has scored in every game in the tournament he has played in, to rifle the ball left-footed past Brian Jensen. Heartbreaker.

2215: GOAL Burnley 3-2 Tottenham That's it. Roman Pavlyuchenko finds Jermain Defoe 30 yards out, he sees off his marker and bends in a shot from the edge of the penalty area that curls past Brian Jensen into the corner of the Burnley net.

2223: I just don't know where to begin. I've never, ever seen so many texts from supporters of a club telling me they hope their team loses. You can understand why, too. Burnley were simply magnificent tonight and they deserved so much more than to be brave losers. Tottenham, on this form, face a battle to stay in the Premier League. But they must be congratulated for eventually showing the heart that booked a Carling Cup final place. Amazing.
2221: "That was a magnificent game of football that had absolutely everything. It's extremely unfortunate for Burnley because they were so close, but that little bit of class did eventually tell right at the end. Burnley won tonight, whatever the final result. They are the winners. "
BBC Radio 5 Live's Mark Lawrenson

2218: Full-time in extra-time Burnley 3-2 Tottenham
Tottenham reach the Carling Cup final by beating Burnley 6-4 on aggregate

Classic Taarabt

 

[sherbornespurs]

" A poor effort from the young Welshman".

It's obvious he hasn't got what it takes - might as well flog him off to Birmingham and get our £5mil back. Do it Levy.

 

[stemark44]

Poor Modric,even now, he still must be having nightmares lining up with that lot.

 

[Monkey boy]

Some finishes there that Soldado could only dream of.

 

[Kendall]

Didn't we lose at Turf Moor last time we played against them as well?

bogey ground.

 

[sim0n]

not at WHL, so there is quiet confidence with this one...

 

[Mr Pink]

Yeah...think Modric scored a cracker didn't he? To opening the scoring. Then they cut through us like a knife through butter...think it ended up 3-1 to them.

That's a top, top find!

Good to see Lawro's views on Spurs haven't changed in nearly 6 years...

4-2 I think, but we'd already qualified for the CL and they'd already been relegated.

Classic end of season nothing game.

When are tickets likely to go on sales for this? I'm thinking of it being my sons first Spurs game...poor sod

I think once the powers that be decide the TV games. The Mrs and I will be going up for it.

Might have to meet up for that beer then mate, as long as you don't mind a 6 year old in tow?

 

[riggi]

Might go up. See what their firms like with Kendal and matty.

 

[we_all_loved_freund]

Looks like we will be playing on a Saturday at 3.00pm as we haven't been selected for TV. The club might now get their fingers out and invite ticket applications!!

It could put him off watching us for life.

Hope not as we play Chelsea on the Thursday at 5.30. Sure it will be another Sunday game
