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

[give it to gordon]

I think we shouldn’t because if we win, and they played poorly (unlikely but possible), we (and they) will be accused of match-fixing.

That’s the real reason why on-loan players are usually not allowed to play against their contract club.

Should we allow McAtee and Doyle to play against us ?

As a club we so nice we will probably say yes then they’ll have a great game knock us out

 

[Northblue]

i think lots will want to see Haaland, just open the criteria up very quickly, and lay on some free travel, cos no doubt there will be strikes

Not been since villa 2020 and seeing Newcastle fans making the most of it the other week made me hope for a trip there this year

 

[NZBlue]

For those who haven't read it I posted this on page 4. We cannot give permission for them to play due to FA rules

 

[WestGorton]

Emotionally tough but they can't play in my opinion. I think they may be compromised if we allowed it.

 

[Kinkys Left Foot]

I hope we allow it. Fantastic for their development. Chance to go up against the best at Wembley.
We won't deserve to go to the final if we can't beat a SU with or without 2 kids from our academy.

 

[MCFC1993]

Apparently it's not correct, they won't be able to play:

 

[Cricket Blue]

just hope Pep doesn't make mass changes and underestimate the Blades
Our recent semi final record in the FA Cup has been shocking

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

i think lots will want to see Haaland, just open the criteria up very quickly, and lay on some free travel, cos no doubt there will be strikes

Plus people just can’t afford it now it’s extortionate for a day out to Wembley nevermind A weekend

Good draw, feel a little bit sorry for McAtee and Doyle. If we beat the Blades got a sneaking feeling we will face Brighton in the final
