FA Cup SF Draw | Sheffield United | Sat 22 Apr 16:45

[Blue Mist]

Until next year…

Yeh probably, actually there is no probably about it and that's where its wrong. They can treat us like shit knowing we still come back.

 

[Eds]

Draw made on Sunday for two games, one to be player on a Saturday, one on a Sunday. Everyone knew prior to the draw the rags had to play on a Sunday, the only possible complication would have been if they were drawn against Sheffield. Presumably though Sheffield's game on the Tuesday would have been moved. So the only hold up is the actual times of the kick off. Who is involved in making this decision? The police, the clubs and the FA I assume. I know a previous poster has intimated that the FA want a late ko and we don't but how long does it take to sort out. As each hour passes train fares are increasing, hotels are being booked (London marathon is on that weekend as well) and as usual the fans are being treated like shit.

We've previously come unstuck in the semi-finals of the FA Cup because we always have a Champions League knockout game before or after it and we're usually still competing for the title. In the last three seasons we were eliminated at this stage by Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal largely because we had bigger commitments.

zack steffen did his best to help eliminate us in 2 of them games

Where the fuck is Kevin Parker or any other fans’ voice to speak out about this ridiculous delay in announcing the kick off time?

Pathetic!

And City are staying silent. If only they said something it would help. 'We have asked for xxxx but......'

Unfortunately Kevin is unavailable. He was overheard saying 'Them scousers are taking the piss'. He is currently on a 2 week residential course entitled 'li'pool really are der best'

I take your point but it's actually correctly spelt rags.

I don’t mind them being called united rags scum cunts etc mate but if it’s the first on the list it should ALWAYS be a small u

He’ll be too busy making a **** of himself, wherever he is. City Matters are probably in the process of offering the dippers more rather than less tickets for the game at the Etihad

I have tried in the past to go rags/lower case in the guess the team compy but it was changed from 'up above'.

I didn't kick off but, I did consider at the time binning the compy and taking my ball home.
