HRiver 1,512 Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 I think I prefer this to the FA Cup for this season. It's been five years that we haven't won this, while we've won the FA Cup four times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 43,479 Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 yes but they were offered a Bye into the 4th roundOffered a bye? Mate, they pulled out of the competition altogether. They were never in it to begin with.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1999%E2%80%932000_Manchester_United_F.C._season#cite_note-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 4,400 Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 This is basically our cup now so i don't care who we get along the way. Would like an away game at some small shitty team though like Scarborough '03. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie 4,400 Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Be great if we won it with the team we played against Wolves. Would be awesome. Hope we beat Arsenal in the final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't remember Liverpool or United getting an offer like that when they won it in 2005 and 2008 respectively anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie 4,400 Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Still got ages to wait for this anyway, like January... Hopefully we get an easy game first up just so we can play our dynamic youngsters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie 4,400 Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Good old fashioned English football. Shame Wembley FC lost to Uxbridge, there's nothing interesting going on in this first round really. Still gutted about last season (Or the year before) when MK Dons lost to Stevenage, i wanted to see MK Dons vs AFC Wimbledon so badly. Maybe that can happen in round 2. I will watch some of it though i suppose of they show something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rmpr 8,977 Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 I dont really care about FA Cup this season. I would rather rest our main players and try young and squad players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutcho 8,443 Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 I dont really care about FA Cup this season. I would rather rest our main players and try young and squad players.Our main players are our young ones. But yeah i agree with you. We should use them to rest mata hazard oscar etc, and play our secondary team, or players who need a run or are lacking in form. Maybe play lampy to try and add to his goal talley.

Think it's a trophy that most fans likes and want us to win it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it's a trophy that most fans likes and want us to win it.Yeah ofc, i am talking about the early rounds when we find ourselves up against weaker opposition. If we get into the quarters or get a tough draw then obviously we would play a full strength/stronger team. Fa cup is still in most peoples eyes the third most important trophy this year and we shouldn't do an arsenal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
