Default Fulham v. Manchester United FA Cup [R]

Fulham travel to OT to face Manchester for the second week in a row.

Good news is that their back line is furhter weakened with Fortune out with an injury and Saha is Cup tied. Sava is also back after a lengthy injury with Hayles and Clark.

Bad news is that Sir Alex is a little pissed and vows to attack. It will be interesting to see his lineup with the Porto game just days later. Coleman's also out still with that leg infection, leaving Kean to take over managing responsibilities.

I thought we played pretty well, but was not surprised at the final score. Old Trafford is a tough place to play from this American's eyes.

I WAS surprised that Hayles did not start with McBride, as they had been playing pretty well together from what I have seen and heard. As my ManU rooting friend said, we can now concentrate on getting to Europe. What's the latest on Coleman? I hope he's getting better - he's a good manager.

I think it was a little too much to ask to win twice at OT in the same season. That beign said, it was a game that we could have drawn. Knight's shot hit the crossbar and a few other great saves by Howard and we could be onto the Semifinals. On the other hand, a few more the other way and we could have lost 4-1. It was a good run and i'm looking forward to next years competition.

Coleman should be back for Leeds next week according to the Fulham website.
