FA Cup 5th Round Draw 2019 - Newport (a)

I'd say two trophies is a very successful season (although we've been so good the last couple of years, it does tend to skew expectations a bit). I can't remember if the media thought Mourinho had a successful first season at United when they won the League Cup and Europa League.

I agree. 2 trophies and a top 4 finish is a good season for any team
 
Great draw for us, Chelsea vs rags haha! Ideally they trash the rags and go out next round.
 
Millwall shouldn’t even still be in the competition. Only way things will change
That wouldn’t change a thing. Ban them for 5 years from the FA Cup and 6 years from now they draw West Ham in the quarters - do you seriously think their hooligans would stay away from that game in case they get banned again?
 
How does the Community Shield work if say (just a question not banking on it!) we won the League and FA Cup double? Would we play the runner up of the FA Cup or the runner up of the League?

You may be right, but even so, I think it’s better than the alternatives, and sends a proper message that the rest of us, as well the sport itself, have had enough of their shit

In those circumstances its between the winners and second place in the league. But its not gonna happen because, didnt you know, the Dippers have already won the league.

I've this vision of winning the treble and playing the scousers in the Community Shield as them being runners up in the League and winning fcuk all yet again and it seems amazing.
How GUTTED would they be HAHAHAHA

Don’t forget the Community Shield!

It was hailed as a great treble by rags and some elements of the sycophantic media.
 
No disrespect to Boro or Newport but we’ve had pretty favourable cup draws this year with our toughest tie so far probably being Leicester away in the League Cup
