Yeah. From a selfish point of view, I was hoping that they'd get hit for 4 or 5 and go into Tuesday with heads down. Now extra time would be a good idea!

City never started well and have just continued to be sh*t.

Extra time please and not a 94thmin winner from either team.

Bit worried about which one of our LB's to use against mcmanaman

1-0 Wigan :banghead:

Game over, City too little too late.

This tops our Carling cup loss....Shitty totally f**ked this one up.

Serves Mancini right for saying he would play Moyes in Community shield. will be sacked in the morning

Wigan win the FA cup

I'm scared now. Imagine what Macmanaman et all will do to our defence.

Wigan were the better team on the day and you could see how much they wanted to win it.

Really pleased for them

Good game, right result.

Can't wait to see BVB play at Wembley, what a ground!

Cheers,

Wish we had the financial clout to compete with clubs like Wigan.

Look at all those Wigan players crying and hugging on the pitch. Guess the last laugh's on them, because we get to play Standard Liege in a couple of months' time!

Congrats to Wigan, deserved the win. Quite possibly Martinez's last fixture at Wigan I'd imagine.

Citeh were a complete disgrace, turned up expecting to win and it showed. Players walking round all over the pitch, nobody willing to take any responsibility or introduce any tempo. They didn't seem to have any sort of game plan and the changes made were ineffectual. Mancini arguably deserved the sack anyway but surely his time is up now.

As far as it goes for us this doesn't change the fact that if we play well on Tuesday we will win. Wigan played well today but they are still a bottom-half team and not suddenly a top team.
