FA Cup Shock Results...
-
Man City 0-3 Nottm Forest
Manchester City were the victims of the biggest FA Cup shock of the day as they were comfortably beaten at home by the Championship's Nottingham Forest.
Forest took the lead when a defensive error by Micah Richards allowed Nathan Tyson to unleash an unstoppable dipping volley from 20 yards.
Robert Earnshaw then doubled Forest's advantage when the Welshman turned home Matt Thornhill's misdirected shot.
Joe Garner made sure of the win after a sloppy bit of play from Didi Hamman.
Chelsea 1-1 Southend
A 90th minute goal from Peter Clarke earned League One Southend a shock third-round replay against Chelsea.
Ivory Coast's Kalou opened the scoring when he rose unchallenged to head in Frank Lampard's corner.
Chelsea's Didier Drogba twice failed to find the net when put clean through, while Juliano Belletti saw his header cleared off the goal-line.
The Blues were made to rue their misses when defender Clarke popped up inside the area to head in a long throw-in.
Hartlepool 2-0 Stoke
Hartlepool United caused the first upset of the FA Cup third round with victory over Premier League side Stoke.
The League One side took the lead on 49 minutes when Matty Robson's free-kick found central defender Michael Nelson, who headed in from close range.
The hosts doubled their lead on 75 minutes when David Foley's superb 30-yard strike flew past Steve Simonsen.
Stoke's best chance fell to Ibrahima Sonko, who headed Glenn Whelan's cross against the post on two minutes.
The victory was Hartlepool's second of the season against Premier League opposition, having dumped West Brom out of the Carling Cup in August.

I tink Southend can win Chelsea at replay coz Southend at home. Furthermore, they had killed Man U in Carling Cup 2 years ago. -
I rather Southend and Forest come EPL and kik City and Stoke Out
-
Hope Man U won't be out soon coz I'm Man U supporter. They need FA Cup campagign to keep boost on BPL and Carling Cup.

Not putting players at the post to clear off the line.

Maybe Scolari don't like the idea of putting men on the post as he feels its a waste of resources? It has happened quite a number of times already this season... Always late goals somemore...Afterall, didn't he said the goalposts don't score goals... the men does. So he put his players to marked the men better right?

hughes still needs to be given more time....man city had a history of being upset by lower league opponents anyway....
-
City burnt by Forest fire.

chelsea chelsea, omg

Not surprise on ManCity though. They aren't go anywhere with Mark in charge...to sack Sven and bring in Mark is like sell away your Ferrari and change with Honda.
