[Albion] Nobody gives us a hope in hell

[Easy 10]

Bookies have us as long as 18/1 for a 2 team game.

Its a 3 horse race.

 

[Mackenzie]

Would we have it any other way though, as it is there is no pressure on us at all.

Kelly Cates said something on 5 live at the weekend, when talking about Watford v Wolves, along the lines of, "I wonder who City would rather play in the final"

City are brilliant, but they've had a few shocking results this season and another few near misses. I refuse to believe that chasing a quadruple, they are not going to have at least 2 or 3 more defeats in games they would normally expect to win.

We've got a chance and 18-1 is a cracking offer. (Maybe i'll go for a match supremacy spread bet instead though).

Just finished listening to "The Game" podcast by the Times while I was in the gym at lunch-time.

Obviously City are favourites, but my God, the way they completely dismiss us, & to some degree Watford, it really is breathtaking stuff.
Monday's episode, if you have a chance, give it a listen. Mind you, this is the paper that gave us the match report from Man Utd v Brighton, without mentioning the word Brighton!

CH should play a couple of soundbites to the team, made me really angry anyway, because the big teams ALWAYS win, don't they?

The commentary were absolutely gutted when Swansea were 2-0 up, when City made the comeback they glossed over the clear robbery that had gone on to wax lyrical about City. I remember the days when commentary were always bias TO the underdog, when it flipped is unknown to me, or why?

'I guess we should say something about Brighton, before all their fans complain'.

I won't be complaining if we win and the papers say nothing about us! [emoji16]

The way City play gives me a glimmer of hope , if and it’s a big if we stay in the game with 15 to go I fancy us to Nick one rather than City , I watched the Swansea game and City simply got extremely lucky and were so open down the flanks , a double sub of Knockaert / March , and Izquierdo with 20 to go would definitely give them a headache , all’s we have to do is keep it at 0-0 until that time and start planning for the final , easy eh ! What’s the point of getting this far without giving it a real go , I can’t make it to the game but If I was able to go I certainly wouldn’t bother going if I didn’t think we had a chance , going large £3 on a 1 nil win to us scored by Dunk in the 83rd minute treble .

That means if you put £10 on Albion, you'll lo...etc etc

Nobody gave Wigan a chance in the final in 2013, those same pundits didn't give Wigan a chance in 2014 Quarter Finals or the 5th round when they again beat City last season. I bet no-one gave Middlesbrough a chance either in the 4th round of the 14-15 season either. City have a habit of ****ing up in the FA Cup against sides they are expected to beat, they very nearly kept that fine run going against Swansea in the QFs. Lets hope they've got more than one eye on a tricky Tuesday night visit to Spurs in the Champions League.

One really doesn't care. One is going to have a great day out whatever the score. be greater if we win of course but great anyway.

Yes it sucks we're playing them and not one of the others, but at least the pressure will be off for the players and us as fans.
What I would like to see (and what I'll be doing) is still singing our hearts out even if we go 3 or 4 nil down. The players deserve that for getting us this far!

That's a bit disrespectful to BHAFC

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

City got turned over by Crystal 'six points to the Albion' Palace. At home.

If that shower of shite can beat them then anyone can.*



















*We'd need to enter their half to do that though...

 

[Hungry Joe]

On their day they are a fantastic footballing side, but they are far from invincible. All the pressure is on them, we'll be making all the noise whatever the scoreline, bring it on.

 

[Giraffe]

I'd say we are capable of beating them 1 time out of 10. Just need it to be that one time.

 

[Goldstone1976]

I’ve been informed that City haven’t beaten us in the Cup since 1922. Consequently, I’ve had £3 on us @21-1.

 

[Seagulls1984]

We have no chance , Swansea caused them more trouble than we have any chance of doing .
Far to one paced .

That's the spirit.

Yes, I'd like us to be playing Macclesfield.

Bookies have us as long as 18/1 for a 2 team game. They have a week break before the game we have 3 days, although they may have an eye on their Tuesday game you can’t deny it would be a massive shock if we won

Had a look at a consolation bet and odds were 1/9 for ManCity and 15/1 for us when I looked.
