[Football] FA Cup Quarter Final Draw - At least its not on the One Show

[hitony]

Scholes: "We might as well fast forward to the semis now." Arrogant Man United prick.

Did he really say that?

was going to ask the same, didn't have him down as quite that much of a prick tbh.

Probably a tongue in cheek comment as many of us said when we drew Coventry.

 

[Charlies Shinpad]

JCL heaven on the horizon

 

[maffew]

What it wrong you people .Bloody JCL’s the lot of you.

If I took you back to this time in 1997 or 1998 and told you the Albion were to play Manchester United the greatest club in the world theee times in one season , in those day you’d have craamed your pants.

It’s a great draw it’s what football is about.

Would just rather someone else knocked them out first. Udds were decent today and they will field a stronger side against us

 

[seagulls4ever]

And no chance of a ticket to the match either

If the allocation is 15%, then I think everyone who wants a ticket will be able to get one.

 

[hart's shirt]

We gave them a good game last time.

No reason why we can't go up there and beat them if we go for it, take our chances and get the rub of the green.

11 v 11.

Regarding timings all fixtures were Saturday to Monday for last years QF’s, with two on Saturday, one of Sunday and one on Monday.

I think it’s a great draw. We’d be going mental if this was any other season, what’s wrong with some people?

Can't stand Manure? Similarly, most fans have enjoyed non-top 6 matches far more this season, than against the mega spenders. Perhaps most fans wanted opponents and a home tie, where we had the greatest chance of reaching the semis. The bookies and Scholes realise everything's in ManUre's favour:

 

[Mr Banana]

I feel like it's quite ominous that Scholes - probably the brightest football brain in England's recent history - thinks this isn't gonna be a contest

 

[Weststander]

Man Utd fans over the moon with the draw, "the perfect tie", etc etc. The same sentiments when we got Coventry.

Already planning their semi trip to Wembley.

No football is about following your home town club and being proud of your roots.....football is not about playing
The likes of Man U and Liverpool etc it really isn't.Your passion is about your club not another club end of !!

I had passion galore in league 2 and the old 4th division and playing Man U or liverpool made no difference to me in the cups bar the money you'd receive

Even their 2nd string would knock us out as we're just to negative away

Their first string beat us 1-0 thanks to a deflected goal.

Yes, word for word.

Probably a tongue in cheek comment as many of us said when we drew Coventry.

Nope. He absolutely meant it.

He then tracked back a bit to say Leicester might give Chelsea a game, but the other 3 are all going through.

The home PL wins this season, the magic for the fans arounds those events, means far more to me than hyped 'glamour' PL or FAC trips to mega spending ManUre.

Shirley we won't play our first team, as with today. I won't blame CH for that one bit.

Staying up in the PL is everything, otherwise it's back to the unsustainable and inequitable business model.

How many of you who couldn’t be arsed with the Palace game are now slobbering at the thought of getting a ticket at Old Trafford ?

Quite a few I reckon. Sales of half and half scarves might be quite numerous too.

Here’s hoping the players aren’t going to be twittered hanging around for post match autographs.

The magic of the Cup that held so little interest for the first game seems to have come alive

Anyone else have less ambition to attend this game than the Palace one? I won’t be trying for a ticket for this one.

Am I right in thinking we'll get about 10000 tickets?!
