FA Cup Semi-Final | City v Chelsea | Sat 20 Apr 5:15pm SOLD OUT

[youngbob]

No easy draws at this stage of the competition.

If we draw Coventry then we have one of Chelsea or United waiting in the final. If we draw United it's a Manchester derby at Wembley again. At least with this draw we can finally beat Chelsea this season and, call me a bit too optimistic, but Coventry can beat United and there's a chance we'll be playing them in the final if we get there.

When will we know which day we play

 

[Lowtower]

Chelsea have to have run out of luck against us this season by now.

Coventry will fancy their chances against the rags, up against it as its essentially a home game for the rags but a winnable game for them

 

[simon23]

we have to beat whoever is put in front of us.....

the only one people wouldnt have found something to complain about was Coventry so the tin foil hat brigade had a 2 out of 3 chance of having something to whinge about.

Such a professional draw that ffs

Least it was a bag and not the easy to see through clear bowl they often usr.
Rags: Wigan, Newport, Dippers, Coventry on way to the final.
Hopefully Pep plays a full strength team as we have been knocked out quite a lot bar last year in domestic semi finals by rotating

 

[TinFoilHat]

I don’t know why anyone would be surprised that United got Coventry.

Coventry will be celebrating being in their first cup final since 1987.

 

[makinghistory]

Coventry must be delighted with that

They have a real chance. They are a decent football team.

 

[blueste41]

so....where where was the list of which team was which number?

They are derived from the order the ties were made in the previous round. For the 1/4 we were the last team drawn so become number 4, Coventry V Wolves was the 1st tie drawn so Coventry were ball 1.

 

[Bald fraud]

That Coventry ball was fresh out of the freezer!

 

[flook]

Oh for fucks fake stop!!
It is a 4 ball draw in a hat. Anyone could draw anyone. Looks like a City Rag final. We all want that.

stop what? every other fucking round there is a list on the screen
