I’m sure Tony would prefer premier league at all costs

The cup. We get a shiny new trophy.

Cup. Winning a trophy lifts the club profile and its importance. Who's to say we wouldn't come straight back up?

Oh and Europe.....

If it meant you would become more attractive to women, would you sacrifice a kidney?

I find it astonishing that anyone would want to win the Cup at the expense of staying up.

Wasn't it Brian Clough who when asked what he was going all out for, when Forest were in both Cups, European Cup, and with hesitation said 'the league, the league is your ultimate test each season'. I don't care what league we're in, but finishing as high as you can, in the highest league you can has to be the target at the start of every season and the priority over all else.

That’s because you’re wrong

The great Bill Shankly as well. Something like "the cups are all very well, playing in Europe all very nice but the League is our Bread and Butter".

Relegation my feckin arse.

Had to sell one because of women...

Thankfully Mr Hughton and Mr Bloom don't care what you think.

Thankfully Mr Hughton and Mr Bloom don't give a fvck what people like you think.

Alright Mr Angry. Keep it civil, only pulling your leg!

That’s more like it!

 

[Perfidious Albion]

Staying up of course,,,,
The cup is all very well , for the moment... but let's think more long term.
I'd rather we were Premier League.

No.

Oh we're staying up and we'll win the cup... for Sussex by the sea

 

[FamilyGuy]

Stay up all day long

Absolutely 100% what he said! No brainer.

Think Dunky has indicated that he (and club?) feel league is far more important. A run in the cup is good for the fans but an extended time in the PL under proper management is good for business.

Indeed he is. We've won **** all - the charity shield in 1910 doesn't really count.

Luton, Wigan, Wimbledon and even little old Portsmouth have all won a major trophy in the last 30 years - it's our sodding turn.

Win the Cup and go down all day long
