FA Cup Semi Final draw - Brighton

[AkanjisAfro]

I can’t afford this being good stuff. 4 trips to London in a couple weeks

 

[Rochdale Blue]

Hopefully Brighton have used up their quota of luck. They might say the same about us, but we shouldn't be relying on luck.

I was hoping Millwall would win. Brighton are good at just sitting in.

I would imagine fans of all the other teams are more than happy that Millwall's bunch of thugs won't be making an appearance.

I’ll go second, I bet we do

Of course we will. It will fall to simple membership though. There will be plenty of uptake from parents of young kids who support City in the south east who've been to the Etihad once or twice.

I think that makes you the "old bugger" :)

I meant 11 hmm i wish

Not as simple as that at all. Shouldn't even be down there for a start.

but it is down there and nothing we can do about it, i agree with that part, but for me, it's getting behind the team and the owners, and the perception of our club, we are so lucky, and whats not to like about going to London on a jolly with 1000's of others cheering on the best team in the land.

 

[City & Blue Brazil]

When do we find out if Saturday or Sunday - Im travelling down for this one from Inverness ?

Two weeks on Thursday knowing the FA, should be Saturday as we got spurs following Tuesday and assume tea time kick off but can't book owt as don't trust those in charge

Playing the weakest team might mean we play a few fringe players with the CL semi a few days later. Would have been very risky to do that against Watford or Wolves

Just as risky resting players in a one off semi final.

Pep has never won the FA cup and City have never won the Double, so I hope he picks his strongest team.

City vs Wolves final I reckon. Chance for revenge for that handball goal

fuck that, I want revenge for 74.

FA semi, CL quarters, proper title race, the investigations, the incoming transfer ban.

Never a dull moment, SR.

We got Spurs when we could have got Barça Juve or Liverpool,
We got Napoli and they were very poor for three halves of the four we played them in,
Liverpool was a tough draw but we still avoided Barça and Madrid.

We’ve had Rotterdam and Monaco, Napali and Rome :-)
