Looks like the trophyless run will be over.
But knowing us we'll manage to lose 3-0 to Wigan.

One thing we've done superbly this season is beat the small teams so I'm confident.
Though losing against Bradford after that amazing comeback against Reading means the confidence could be higher, though hopefully we're only cursed in the League Cup.

This talk has been around for a while. Been reported that he does not get along too well with Moyes. Will be interesting to see how this one turns out.

Oh, and it looks like Arsenal will get a trophy this time around. I would feel really bad for Wenger if they don't manage to get at least one.

An Arsenal fan who thinks they've already won the cup is a fool. The three other teams in the semis have earned their place, and there is Wigan amongst them as well, holders of the cup. In 2011 Arsenal only had to beat Birmingham for the League Cup and they couldn't manage that. They shouldn't take anything for granted.

Lol. I'm a Manchester United fan. 
But I seriously think Arsenal have that extra something this year that they lacked in the previous years. No doubt they'll lose steam in the run-up to the Premier League trophy, but IMO the FA Cup is a half-chance for them.

There should more black managers around and it's obvious that there has been a problem. But the numbers have actually been increasing of late. progress is being made. Writing an article about it is stupid and using the sacking of a black manager who wasn't getting results isn't the way to go about it.
It's like John Barnes moaning about him not getting managerial posts. He managed celtic to 3rd place in the spl. he took over a mid-table tranmere side and nearly had them relegated by october they were that bad. He's clearly just a crap manager.
Chris hughton got the newcastle job without any previous managerial experience. That's a big job, if race was a huge issue there is no way he gets that job with no experience.

This time two months ago there were 3 black managers. but ince's blackpool were in freefall, powell's charlton bottom. can't really argue with either being sacked.
3 isn't really enough, either. but there were no articles then.
