FA Cup v Chesterfield highlights

[Yorkshire Blue]

Shame on you ITV

http://www.itv.com/sport/football/article/2013-12-08/fa-cup-second-round-highlights/

One of the best goals I've seen in 25 years of football and they edit it all out.

They don't show the penalty incident or any of the build up to the goals.

And the players didn't get a coach back to Essex they were on the train.

ITV and football, always makes me realise how sh!te they are as a broadcaster. Adrian Halfwit..... why?

Longer highlights on YouTube. ITV will always be poor at football coverage.

Some sublime skill from Straker but the most pleasing part is at the end where he lays the ball off. He has not had an end product at times but if he can make a run and lay the ball off, his job is done

Absolute shambles doing the draw. Obviously a mistake made when the wrong team called out about half way through. Then took the team names of the caption. Didnt show the full draw at the end, went to an advert then back to Tamworth and hardly mentioned the draw! Put it on Sky or even BBC please!!!

I think that was when they called out Tamworth or Bristol City minutes after we had just seen Bristol win ....

What a lovely piece of skill from Straker ,dont get to see that stuff from players in league 2 very often, hes a beauty.And what confidence to do that, he keeps progressing as he is ,then SUFC really have a gifted left sided player,him and Coker make SUFC the envy of most clubs having to really good left sided players

Matt Smith had an absolute nightmare, calling Tamworth or Bristol City before realising his own channel had just shown City's win, calling Fleetwood or Burton when it wasn't their number. The very last number to be drawn, number 60, which he could have worked out before it got picked, he thought Sheringham Jr said 16, so started looking for team number 16 which had already been drawn, before he finally announced Fleetwood or Burton (again). Plus they obviously had a computer problem (not for the first time) as they weren't able to show the ties on screen after a while.

No worries, it is back on the BBC (with BT Sport) next season.

Straker, oh my. Never have I seen anyone in an SUFC shirt try something as audacious as that, let alone pull it off without breaking a sweat.

Second goal wasn't too shabby either. Neither was theirs come to think of it

 

[Shrimper in India]

Great work Anthony Straker, keep up the good work!

Had to watch this a few times, it was so good.
How did 2ft 4 Straker out jump that defender for a start? The cross was sublime and it was a superb jump and header from Straker.
The next bit of skill from Straker still has me drooling. To flick a moving ball, that is not bouncing, over another player, and run onto it, is just supreme skill. That surely has to go down as one of the top 3 goals Southend have ever scored.

Laird had a hand in all three goals. Credit where credit is due.
