4th Round F.A.Cup

[degsy]

Derby /Leicester might be good. What price Leicester for the trophy?

Leicester got to the final in 69, lost to city, who beat us in the semi (well we beat ourselves really by easing up but that's another story) and got relegated

Took 10-1 on them going down.

Problem with the telly is at the end of the day it is all about tv ratings, and the Mancs and the RS will probably draw in the biggest audiences.

I used to love the cup even when we were out of it. How on earth can anyone whip up the slightest interest now in a competition which is so far past its sell by date it is starting to smell of mould and rust.

Give the winner instead of 4th in the league a CL place and I guarantee you it would be good again.

We've sold 12,500 tickets for tomorrow. City not sold their allocation either.

Wolves, 9/1 Paddy Power
Worth a shilling I reckon.

Off to WHL tomorrow. Been looking forward to it for weeks. Kashket and Akinfenwa to score. 2-1 Wycombe (in my dreams)

 

[toffeejack]

Haha Leicester, that was great stuff, how did they not score?!

It would make sense to scatter the starting times for a group of matches 15 min apart. say a block at matches at 2:30, 2:45, 3pm, 3:15 and 3:30 so you could catch the final 15 minutes of a good match, potential upset.

 

[Huyton Layne]

What happened to the punishing clubs for playing weakened teams? Spurs' C team getting knocked out and RS's B team already gone.
Isn't it an actual rule to the competition?

 

[The Cowboy]

I think there'll be a new name on the FA Cup winners list this season. Dunno why, but that's my prediction.

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

I'm going to be rooting for one of Lincoln, Wolves or Burnley to win it now

Not good for our European chances but good for the Cup as a whole

That being said, I'm expecting a Chelsea Vs Man City Final
