Pompey takes out Red Devils 1-0 at Old Trafford. No treble, maybe not even one piece of hardware for United.

This is like the Mississippi Braves defeating the Boston Red Sox in the playoffs! Love. It!

Too bad there's no way to duplicate the FA Cup in American football. Even the MLS doesn't do relegation and has playoffs.</p>

Did ya'll see the Barnsley fans storming the field after beating Chelsea? Awesome stuff. They're 16th in the Championship, but have beaten two of the Big Four in succession now.

And I love that pompous *** Fergie getting beat at home. None of the big 4 left in the Cup now, so it'll be interesting to see who winds up winning it.

I love it. The BBC report said "...for the last 15 minutes, the Barnsley penalty area resembled the Alamo with Chelsea mounting wave after wave of attacks as Barnsley camped out to hold them off..." I was on the edge of my seat praying they'd hold on for the win. Good stuff.
