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

[Brightwell Bros.]

The media will spin that otherwise. Bit we fear no one. They are all shit scared of us.

I'm fairly sure the media will speak of nothing else than us being favourites. Best Arsenal and if we don't win a treble our season will be framed as a failure.

Not getting Coventry was 2/3. Which I think is what people are annoyed about.

In other words (unless I'm missing something), logic would say that we were twice as likely to not get them, as to actually getting them. Yes?

Chelsea have done well against us this season, will the penny drop for pep that they are packing the midfield out to nullify rodri? Needs the rodri/kova partnership this one

We should have won both games. Hopefully we don’t let them off the hook for a third time

I have seen the future and seen an epic week at Wembley Stadium at the end of May

25th May - FA Cup Final - City 3 Rags 0
1st June - CL Final - City 3 Barca 0

If we do get to both cup finals, I bet there will be a fair few city fans who have a week in London

Despite our efforts last season as well.

This season has surprised me. I expected a big drop off and seeing us only competing in the league and one cup.

IF...and it's a big IF we do as well as last season I'd argue this was our best yet.

Yes, you're agreeing with me but it sounds like you're not!

Who did the Dippers draw ?

Agreed. Even if we don't win anything this year, I had similar worries that we'd have dropped off completely. Can't argue with the team's desire and fight to get to this stage of the season and still be in for everything. Everything after March is tiny, tiny margins rather than fight or desire.

City 7/10 clear favs to win the cup. Got to be, in that remaining four. Coventry will be well up for United.

Happy with the draw, I'm just always a bit dismayed the semi is a wembley, but there we are

Looking at BBC Sport it seems there’s only one team left in this years FA Cup!

Sly sports seem to be concentrating on our 'daunting fixture list'.
Which is still the same as last night, but we now know our opponents in the semi.

Let up Sly you're fucking tedious.

We have been so successful because of going for every trophy, thus meaning lots of tough games at the business end of the season.
We have experience in these matters
