Drawn against the rags/chelsea at Wembley (FA Cup Semifinal)

[Blue Punter]

Let's hope the Chavs get through against Bucharest on Thursday ,then beat the Rags. If so they will then play a europa league tie on Thursday 11th April, three days before the semi!

+1 Or could they play the tues/weds....europa games i think have been played on these days before...

Only if there's no champions league games that week they can move it to tues/weds.

I think they can play Europa League on Tues or Wed, but it has to be finished by the time CL kicks off at 7.45. If it's a 2nd leg, they have to factor in the possibility of Extra Time & pens, so could kick off at 5.00.

True but their fans have more class and don't pick on kids and women on their way out of the stadium.

We owe Chelsea one at Wembley :)

As a lifelong utd fan ( 4 years now) I'd like to know if we beat Chelsea rovers and play Mancaster city in the playoffs do we get 3 points or do we go straight to the Super Bowl
Also will sir alistair ferguson be able to recall Donald Beckham and billy Charlton for this game as my dad says they are brilliant ( he used to watch utd on telly just like I do now)!!!
By the way , went to the Isle of Man and couldn't find old truffle stadium anywhere.
What colour are we again - c 'mon you team!!!!
(As found on sadcafe - no , really)

Ever cross your mind that it was a blue on the wind-up?

Sounds like that Wale off Twitter.

id rather beat chavski or the rags in the semi and then have an easy final...

When we go through to the final, I imagine Mancini playing all the youngsters.

From the BBC website

Manchester City or Chelsea v Manchester United

and there was me thinking we were already in the semi final

The draw is ideal. Simply cannot risk defeat in a cup final to those rag bags. If we lost the semi it wouldn't be great, but at least that would just be one each. Lose the FA Cup Final and history is made in their favour. Play the semi as if it's the final, and then turn up to collect the cup like we did 2 years ago. You just know they'd get lucky in a final against us however well we played. Imagine being stuck in Wembley with those twats holding the cup - couldnt take the chance even if the odds were well in our favour. I bet they feel the same if they're honest.
