THIS weekend is the one punters always dread; FA Cup, Scottish Cup, frozen pitches, depleted squads, fringe players and upsets in the making. It’s no wonder Mr Fixit always advised caution and small stakes.
The weekend got off to a slightly farcical start as Aston Villa were forced to field a tem full up youths, up way past their bed-time, in their FA Cup tie against Liverpool. The youngest gave a good account of themselves but succumbed to a trio of second half goals after going in level at half-time.
Adama Traore‘s fine strike also sent Wolves in to the next round at the expense of Crystal Palace. Meanwhile the anicipated shock never materiealised at Hampden where Queen of the South comfortably seen off their lower ranked opponents, Queen’s Park.
Will Saturday deliver the usual cup uspets we’ve come to expect at this stage of the cup competitions north and south of the border?
