As a Leicester fan I rarely take notice of Forests results but haven ridden with @Supersuperleeds I took no delight in Forests win 
. Leeds are still top though so he still a bit happy

One of only 10 FA Cup Third Round games kicking off at 3pm on a Saturday afternoon! The game has gone bonkers.
We’ve got a 12:30 kick off (the most annoying time of all) shortly, against Stoke, for overseas TV coverage in places like Serbia, Montenegro, Singapore, Sweden, Denmark, etc.......

Well done @Accy cyclist, always glad to see Ipswich lose!
We should have beaten Stoke, they were very poor

It should be a midweek evening tournament now to reflect it's status. Things change, the FA Cup doesn't matter very much now apart from to lower league sides hoping for a bit of glory and some cash. Most Premier League clubs and their supporters regard it as a bit of a nuisance.

A nuisance that most,if not all Premier League clubs would love to win! Listening to the local radio yesterday ahead of the Newcastle v Blackburn game,we kept getting told how 'massive a club' Newcastle is/are blah blah,but like most Premiership clubs they've won zilch over the decades. I suppose it is a nuisance in terms of revenue,as progressing in the competition will affect their Prem' League survival chances and the Premiership means lots of money,unlike the FA Cup.

Most Premier League clubs would indeed like to win the cup if they could be transported straight into the semi or quarter finals. But the earlier rounds and replays, often against lower league opposition who are going to give them a physical game are something they would rather do without. That's why very few of them field full strength sides.
Cup success or failure has no bearing on a managers job anymore, unlike in Fergie's early days when it stopped the club from sacking him. Winning it now means nothing if the team's league position isn't satisfactory.
West Ham beat Birmingham yesterday. I'd swap that for a point against Arsenal next week and another from Liverpool in early February.
