FA Cup Semi Final draw - Brighton

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

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.

They key is the club getting the selling criteria right. Not this over the top day by day shite that they do they do during the first week or two.

This is sufficient

Day 1 - cup scheme
Day 2 - ST holders
Day 3 - citizens members on a sliding scale for a couple of days
Day 5/6 - ST holders who want extras
Day 7 - open sale

Be interesting this one as we have never had a semi final just after a league cup final.

Probably the best draw we could expect, no excuses, a double should be the minimum from here.

When will da FA confirm semi final time ? I’m aware we will be Saturday 6th April,it’s grand national day also should be a great day all round. 2-3pm kick off makes most sense. Long way to travel for us and Brighton.

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.

Maybe but the day is made by the result. We should win the game anyway, but I'd rather have played a Championship side than Brighton.

12.30 is a stupid kick off start in itself.

Driving from Manchester takes a good 4 hours. Have to leave about 6am.

Better than driving home at 8.00 at night but that’s just my opinion

I know this has been covered but can someone remind me likely date for us to play Cardiff?

The only thing I can think of is it gets brought forward until the Tuesday/wednesday night

 

[Marvin]

I can't really afford to go but I will. This is once in a lifetime, or feels like it at the moment.

Great draw, best could have hoped for.

Hopefully Watford smash Wolves as I am no fan of Wolves fans. They would be a pain at Wembley.


Clearly we need to get past BHA first.
