Hang on a fu*k*ng minute!!! SAFC win tomorrow and we're through to the quarter finals of a major Wembley trophy. Newcastle are gone, Boro are gone and we're the last representative from the North East. We could be drawn against Stoke or Preston at home and, at least, have the fun of a semi final. Have the cups become so devalued that we're willing to throw this game by 'playing the kids'? Is progressing to, and staying in, the PL, which we'll never win, so critical that we just avoid cup runs forever more? Not in the view of the massive support we're taking to QPR tomorrow .... ... I can't wait to be among them and hope it becomes part of our memories for years to come. Haway the Lads!!!
BTW, Leeds are at Arsenal so take care coming down ... ... they've caused trouble at most away games this season.
They’ll have a big allocation down there as well you’d imagine. Plenty of tickets available at Arsenal in the cups.
Probably the most idiotic post I've seen on here ... ... despite some intense competition. How bored would you have to be to spend time on that drivel.
The itinerant scum, among them, can't get to the matches like Brentford. The allocations are small and the season ticket brigade tend to be more reasonable. You're right, it's matches like this where the biggest idiots emerge.
Said at start of season we should sacrifice all the cup but now I really would like us to keep going. Be a good test as they are a very decent side from what bits I’ve seen, I fancy it to be close with goals. 2-2 and Hoff winning is the shoot out
After Saturday, I would be tempted to play some of the team in that game in this. My team would be Burge Winchester Wright Alves Hume Evans Neil Gooch Pritchard Dajaku O'Brien Subs : Carney, O'Nien, Younger, Sohna, Wearne, Harris, Doyle
Our first team players cant be risked in 3 games in a week. Would love to get to the quarters but the next two league games are too important. Gutted that Higgins and Broadhead are injured.
I am hoping for a strong starting eleven especially at the back. Maybe put Younger or Alves into mid field alongside O/9, I would also go for pace up front as I think we will be mostly counter attacking in this game, so no place for Geads or Pritchard in this one. I would pick from Hoff, Winny, Flanners, Doyle, Firkin, O/9, Younger/Alves Daja, Wearn/Neil, Hume, Harris/Stewart. An odd goal win will do nicely even if its from a shoot out. OaU.
Exactly what you did with my post. Now, please stop interrupting ... ... this is the match thread and people are talking.
