I think I remember reading somewhere that the last time we beat United in a Semi Final we lost to Bolton in the Final? I hate stats like that. Stoke for me.
Last time we played united in an fa cup sem (1920 something) we lost 3-0 to Bolton in the final.

this is the kind of thread that pops up before every derby. previous classics have included :
Where are we celebrating saturday night?
Villa or Blackburn in the final?
How would you most like to beat them?
why don't we maintain a scrap of dignity until after the match on saturday?

He is cup tied, already played for Chelsea I think. Probably do us at the Reebok though! Thus I would prefer Bolton, IF we make it. Better game of football imo.

Stoke have got a woeful "away" record - totally different team at The Britannia.
That would suggest they're unlikely to win the semi though...

One game at a time but I think Stoke would be an easier option (is Stuge cup tied for notlob?)

This question is pointless. We won't beat United (oh, and we wont beat Liverpool on Monday or get top 4 either).
