FA CUP DRAW ROUND 4


I suppose it's all semantics. For me winning on pens means you've drawn the game but won the tie, but I doubt there's an official 'right' way of looking at it. It seems wrong to me to say you've won 4 games in a row if you didn't actually win one of them as a game of football but probably just personal preference.
Will the bookies pay out ? 😄
 

That defeat to West Ham in the quarter final back in '91 still rankles even now when I think about it. All that hardwork in knocking out a top Liverpool side in the previous round totally went up in smoke. The FA Cup really was there for the taking that year after us knocking out the best side left in it and we blew it. Forest in the semi final and Tottenham in the final, whilst good sides both both very beatable.

What makes it worse was recently I read Pat Nevin's autobiography and he reported HK had been on the pop and gave out terrible instructions and made a bad team selection. Man for man we were way better than West Ham who were in the old 2nd division at the time. They should've been beaten out of sight.
 
Was interesting to see Jebbison come on for Bournemouth today actually, guessing he’ll probably start v us. Strange we seemed to have a long hard on for him at Sheff Utd, but then didn’t sign him when he became a free agent.
Would have been a better pick up than Broja.

Was nailed on to score wasn’t he.
