Those of you who have said  give up the cup concentrate on the League shame on you.
This is FA Cup where for about 100 year we held the record for most wins.

[Greg N'Ash]

Heart says we'll brush them aside, head says we'll get done.

[achilles]

No bottle, we will lose and then be able to concentrate on the league!

[Shrek]

Surprisingly can't wait for this, £31 for ticket and coach is great and should be a
Good day, hopefully a good confidence boosting win!

[l_mckay]

"Languishing in 21st place of the 24 teams in the Coca Cola Championship with 26 pts from their 25 games The Blades are having a shitter this season...."

Guess what happened next.....

[Clampy]

This could be a toughie. They are having a shit season, but Mickey Adams has gone there and in his first game, they came back from 2-0 down at home to draw.

We should have enough to beat them but after the Sunderland debacle, i'm not so sure.

Could be an interesting day.

You can add Petrov to that group of people then because he's said he doesn't care about the cup.

[Drummond]

They are in the Division below us, in a similar position and playing consistently worse than we are.

We'll win comfortably.

[garyshawsknee]

Id go for,
Freidal

Walker,
Cuellar,
Dunne,
Clarke,

Albrighton,
NRC,
Bannan,
Young,

Gab,
Fonz.

Theyre just as bad as us at the minute,if we lose it'll really effect us in our next two games,i think we'll squeeze out a 2-1 win.

[Dave P]

A corner turning 3-0 win.

[Matt C]

1-0 Villa.

It's our year.

[Lambert and Payne]

2-0 win for the confidence. There on a similar run to us, in the division below playing poorly. Sheff United mate said its gunna be a rout for us.

[WikiVilla]

Lawro :

I think Gerard Houllier is doing OK as Aston Villa manager. The thing is, their budget has been slashed and, with that happening, I do not think owner Randy Lerner can turn around and demand that they are in the top six in the Premier League.

It is going to take Houllier a bit of time to get things right and he is starting to do that, probably because he is beginning to get senior players fit and back again and creating a bit of competition for places. They will be absolutely fine in the Premier League.

Sheffield United, under new boss Micky Adams, had a really good comeback on Monday, coming back from two goals down with only a few minutes left to draw with Doncaster.

The Blades are a very much 'up and at em' side and it might take another game to separate the two sides.

Prediction: 1-1
