From Peter Bodak’s chip over Corrigan in 1982, to Adebayor’s red card at the Britannia in 2010, I only missed 2 of our 29 FA Cup exits (on both occasions being out of the country)
The FA Cup represented our best hope of ending the famine, and like many others, I experienced all sorts of emotions when it finally happened.
In terms of prestige, the competition was bastardised from the moment the Premier League grew in statute. However, if it’s the only competition we win this season, then brilliant.
Of course I’m bothered.
