Am I missing something or is there a reason why all games are starting a minute later than usual? According to the BBC webpage they are, anyway.

Lovely and great cause, but can anyone explain what the minute signifies?

Just heard on BBC Mids Today that the minute is for all clubs (who have the facility) to show a short video relating to Mental Health. Smashing idea.

Completely ruined by the premier league teams seeing it as a distraction to the all pervading premier league

I don’t mind to be honest, anything to stop the same teams constantly making all the headlines

If we were at home and had to kick off at 3:01 we would be earlier than normal as we never kick off at 3:00

Anything promoting mental health awareness is welcome. Many people will come across it on a personal level.

MOTD FA Cup highlights on now - first game Rochdale v Newcastle. Still shudder at the thought they beat us that time and they (admittedly, the printers) couldn't even spell their name correctly on the ticket.
This may be a long shot but the game (some of it) is played now in an age of VAR so is it a possibility that we could (retrospectively) appeal on a technicality and get a rematch?

It's been on the Red Button on a continuous loop. Watched it all. That bloody VAR is ruining the game! So many shite decisions! Showed one player (can't remember the game) who scored a goal but was deemed offside by a VAR decision because he was offside by the width of a f**kin' bootlace!! FFS! This is getting really stupid now!

There are always better looking options but they go for viewing figures instead the BBC are terrible for it, early rounds they just want to put on the smallest teams and when the big teams enter its all about them , even though the big teams just put out teams containing squad players.

The fa cup is dead I lost real interest in it years ago

A great day on the lash and loads of us ended up in Stafford on the way back but a truly hideous game of football.

Maybe. They probably should do but the Ev seem to have some sort of curse on them the poor buggers!

Joe Gomez could well be Englands main centre half for years to come. You can see he's learnt so much from Van Dijk.

Liverpool have a 22 year old that has come through the academy making his debut for them today and he has only played 11 first team games on loan in his career what a job he has got

Chriavella seems to have been there years. Looks a real talent.

To be fair, most of these kids look great prospects.

Some goal that.

Pickford is genuinely a very, very odd keeper. He seems to make the simple look difficult. Not taking away from Jones but he's weird is Pickford.
