[Albion] What Would You Prefer?

[Seasidesage]

How anybody could not choose winning the cup and still staying up is beyond me? Glory, silverware, followed by a tilt at europe? No lets go for higher mid table obscurity. To grow the club we need to if not win things then at least be seen competing for prizes. Winning the league is a pipedream, but winning an FA or League Cup while still bloody difficult is not impossible a few have managed that. It may be a few years away or a century but surely it has to be an aspiration at least?

Finishing 10th would be worth a lot of prize money to the club.

It would make us a more attractive proposition to future signings, be they established players or kids at youth level.

It would be a sign of progress as a football club and something to make other clubs sit up and take notice.

The cup final will be at an empty Wembley: I just couldn't get overly excited about the occasion, even if I guess it would be decent to have a major trophy in the cabinet.

I'll settle for an honourable defeat somewhere along the road to Wembley this time round, significant progress in the League, and winning the cup next season when we can all go, and then have a massive parade in Brighton afterwards.

Any normal season I'd vote win the cup over anything but winning it whilst no one can attend the games would be worse than not winning it at all.

 

[Mellotron]

I’d HATE us to win the FA Cup with no fans. That would be horrendous, purely from a selfish point of view.

 

[GREASED WEASEL]

Finish 10th. Winning the fa Cup with no fans would be awful.

That's what the Scots are saying about winning at Twickers

Fixed that for you

Where is the option for getting to the final, losing and getting relegated with the cursed non striped kit

alot of selfish bar stewards on here

I only want to win the Cup if I am there

at least your honest

 

[big nuts]

Win a trophy. That’s what footballs about not finishing 10th rather than 17th. We play in the same division next season again regardless.

You don’t think it would be massively shit without fans? Be far less meaningful. Occasions like that are all about the fans.

 

[Hamilton]

The chance to win the FA Cup and stay up? Where do I sign?

I don't actually,no

so the Liverpool win mean't nothing?

 

[RandyWanger]

Winning the cup and staying up would be a dream season

 

[Kuipers Supporters Club]

Football is about winning trophies.

We will eventually get relegated, but even in 50 years time, we could look back and say we won the FA Cup.

AND A EUROPEAN TOUR

(and triangle corner flag)

No brainer - stay up and win a trophy. Pointless poll.

Now, if you’d asked ‘18th and win the cup’ it would have been more interesting

35 posters on here wouldn't agree with you

Nah, they were responding to the two options given.......try 18th and winning the cup.

Good

 

[Sirnormangall]

Let’s win the cup. Finishing 17th is fine, so long as it’s by about 10 points please ( to avoid last day nerves etc)

Until the last few games I thought we'd signed up to that!
