[Albion] FA Cup QF Draw Wed 1.3.23

[RM-Taylor]

utd in europe on the thursday, chances are they will get the last game on the sunday….. will we be saturday night i wonder as the big tv audience

United have to play on Sunday, City have to play on Saturday - City will be the evening game. Imagine Sheff Utd v Blackburn will be Saturday lunchtime as that’s the fourth tv pick slot. We will be 3rd pick so we will be Sunday afternoon

Looking forward to us putting the ball in the back of the net a few times.

Grimsby have a good following though. I reckon whatever allocation they are given, they will fillet. Not sure whether we will go, yet - need to mullet over.

Well I won’t be there, I’ll be floundering on a beach (‘anyone know a bar showing’ thread incoming )

 

[Sheebo]

Will you batter them?

Will you do everyone a favour and knock Man U out…?

 

[Eeyore]

Something fishy aout the draw. Was our ball bigger than the others?

Big balls ? I know what he meant now.

 

[Coldeanseagull]

I wouldn't get too enthralled by a visit of Grimsby normhali but it's the quarter finals and fish pun, fish pun etc.

Not sure that does US much of a favour tbh!

 

[Sheebo]

£10-£15 tickets and we’ll sell out.

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

Strangely i'd feel less nervous if this was an away game.

They’re in great form though… We clearly owe Fulham one

 

[Kuipers Supporters Club]

I remember us losing to Charlton, and in years gone by, Lincoln. We obviously should win, but it’s the FA Cup.

 

[Berty23]

We had better not be on the Sunday. My lad’s side are in the England under 16 Hockey cup semi final and that is in the 19th. I wonder if he would mind if I missed it for the football.

 

[Simster]

I'm going to guess the Amex will be a sellout, and Grimsby will bring whatever allocation they're allowed. 5,000 ish?

yes cos both manc teams can’t play at home on same day, do you know think we maybe the saturday lunchtime?

BBC 1 news talking about Grimsby being the first team to win 5 ties against higher league opposition in the Cup, and ending " they will now meet Brighton"

 

[Eric the meek]

If we went out to Grimsby, that would be such a load of pollocks.

 

[jonny.rainbow]

The last time I went to a Brighton v Grimsby game must have been 88ish at the Goldstone, I was one of about a 4000 attendance watching Gary Chivers make his home debut.

it ended 0-0

My first game!

15%

I wouldnt, much prefer it on our wide immaculate pitch than at their plaice (sorry).

Seriously, whilst its the FA cup, we're at home to 16th in League 2.

 

[Cotton Socks]

That's a Brill tie. I'm expecting our team to put their soles into this game.
