And? It was the year the rags won the European cup as well.

I was joking mate.
Anytime anyone accuses me of being a glory hunter I reply "Yeah, since 1968 when we won the league, then went on to win the league cup, then the FA Cup and the Euro..."
It tends to shut them up

Me too. And if I am talking to a dipper supporter, I throw in "We won a domestic and European trophy double before you cunts ever did." Or words to that effect...;)

There is no way that we will ever be 3 up at Luton let alone 4 up. Remember Southampton away two years ago? Same scenario here. My honest opinion is that if we get to the Quarter Finals, we almost certainly won't win the league. If we lose tonight then we will have a much better chance.

How many tickets have we got for this, hope it's more than that shitty little half an end we get for a league game?

Will be in Luton in 30 mins. Where are we gathering?

This is normally the point in the competition when teams whose seasons are on a knife-edge spend the 90 minutes thinking long and hard about whether they really want an FA Cup quarter-final slapped in the middle of their run-in - whether it's chasing the top four, fighting to stay up, or vying for promotion - leaving themselves open to being mullered by a top team who are just focusing on trying to get into a good rhythm ahead of the business end.

Which is to say, if we start a proper team then we should waltz this. 3-0, 4-1, something like.

Ortega
Akanji, Dias, Ake
Stones, Rodri
De Bruyne, Foden
Bernardo, Haaland, Grealish

I'm talking about making us suffer during games.

We suffer these days? Nah, we’re a bit spoiled if truth be told

 

[BringBackSwales]

what does this mean?

It means dont fucking gamble

 

[jimharri]

I'm assuming we'll be rotating tonight, given the stiff run of fixtures in the next month. Ortega will obviously be playing; but the likes of Gomez, Nunes, Bobb, Lewis and Alvarez must be in contention for spots in the starting XI. And the likes of Hamilton, Sussolo and Wright on the bench?

Glory hunter??? Mate I've been here since 1968, I've seen it all.

Just as we started to get good bloody JCL :-)
