Dreadful cup

I really really hope we treat this competition with the disdain it deserves and play the stiffs in every round.

Aren't we obliged to play a certain number of first teamers?

I ruddy love the tinpot cup... we have a realistic chance of going to Wembley, which I have never seen us do. I was on the edge of my seat during the penalties at Luton last year.

So Icy and Dougal...if *if* we should have a wemberlee day out I take it you wouldnt go based on those comments? Thats not to say I disagree with you.

Who knows, but I felt absolutely no excitement for the game against Luton that should have seen us playing at Wembley if we'd had a clue what we were doing, and I had no intention of going to Wembley if we'd won..BUT that probably had something to do with my total lack of interest in the Albion at that stage as Adams had us playing the worst football since Gillingham..who knows maybe I would go, I hope I don't have to make the decision as I'd rather watch us do something in a proper cup ( not win it obviously ).

Would go but doubt would be that bothered about the game in the same way I did for say the play off final. Would be a day out more than edge of seat stuff
