[Albion] FA Cup Fifth Round

[schmunk]

Silly little request from me. Can you get yourself a Forest/tree avatar please? I have to keep reminding myself which team you support.

Ta.

I tell you what, you guys bring the cheese and I'll bring the wine. Victoria Sponge is a fine choice, and I would suggest bringing a small trifle too.

What a splendid FA Cup Final this is turning into

A small trifle - whilst undoubtedly a pudding of champions - is not an ideal accompaniment for a soccer match. Imagine the scenes when the crowd breaks out into polite applause when either side does a goal? There would be trifle all over the knee rugs and picnic hampers.

May I suggest a large tin of Peak Freans Trotsky Assortment biscuits? The tin could then be luzzed on completion.

I hope we win and also I hope palace win - wow never said that before. I’d love to play them at Wembley!

I absolutely and categorically do NOT want that to happen. I'm not a gambler and the emotional stakes on that are just way way too high for me. Indeed I almost want Fulham to win more than I want us to win as the thought of Palace winning a trophy before us is ....... uggggh.

As requested

Thank you.

Exactly, why would you want Palace to do well? In any sense of the word I truly hope Fulham thrash them and Palace have players sent off as well!

This is a pre-match food fest Sim. I wager the trifle will have been munched by the time the action starts. And anyway, there will only be allowed polite applause when goals are scored

Exactly - basically Twickers car park vibe.

We should have a pre-season tournament featuring all the middle class clubs who've never won a proper trophy. Fulham, Brighton, Bournemouth, Norwich City, Wycombe, Reading, Cambridge United, Exeter City, AFC Wimbledon (I know, I know), and special guests - Millwall.

It would be an absolute delight until Norwich turn up with the wrong kind of bean salad.

Stevenage? STEVENAGE? Also known as Chavenage.

Replace them with Cambridge United and I’m in.

I'm really not sure I'm comfortable with WATFORD, either.

I'm not entirely satisfied that Elton John is representative of the denizens of Watford.

I'd replace them with EXETER.

Both duly noted and amended in my original HILARIOUS post.

If Exeter or Cambridge rock up with beige sausage rolls and sub standard Asda own-brand crisps, you two will have a lot to answer for.

 

[Stumpy Tim]

This is a form of Fans United that I can buy into

What about Oxford Utd? Or Crawley?…… well! Maybe not Crawley.

I'm not vouching for Cambridge, but Exeter will be opening their hampers to reveal SCONES (cream first then jam, obviously), sandwiches made with fresh Brixham CRAB, and a couple of bottles of ORGANIC CIDER.

Cream first is a deal breaker. Sounds like they're on the right side of that particular law

I have heard Cambridge fans singing ‘Here one goes, here one goes, here one goes…’

And ‘Cambridge, Cambridge, rah, rah, rah! Boro, Boro, ha, ha, ha’. (They find Peterborough common and displeasing).

They’ll bring champagne and oysters.

 

[Simster]

Norwich, as befits the most normal and bang average town in the country, will be bringing cheese sandwiches (but with slightly upmarket cheddar and on granary bread), a tube of unusually flavoured Pringles, some plums (ready to eat, none of that radiated shite) and a selection of slightly disappointing "Taxi" biscuits.

I may uninvite them actually. They can run their own ruddy "we've never won f**k all" tournament.

@Man of Harveys is not going to like that description, one little bit.

Strange twist of fate if we are above Forest when we play them next
