Roarie Deacon looked fantastic, I can't have been the only lower league fan who wouldn't mind seeing him in League One or League Two.
His end product was awful. Hence why he's not a football league player.

Agreed. Everything about last night felt crass.
- The sell out sponsorship with The Sun
- The fat goalie eating a pie for publicity
- All the extra sponsorship around the ground
- The plastic pitch (took away the non league leveler)
- Cameras in Sutton dressing room at half time
- Manager on the pitch speaking with tv before the game
I understand that they need to pull in all the extra revenue possible, but this felt wrong from start to finish.
Honestly, glad they lost.
Not to mention the BBC's patronising coverage and the pundits disregarding the football rulebook because "magic of the cup". Ignored a blatant dive and had Xhaka have committed a tackle like that, he'd have been given a five game ban. But because it was Sutton, it was a great tackle.
