The FA Cup (Other football)

Wow,  just found out that we haven't played West Ham in the FA Cup since *that* quarter-final...

Yeah that was an adventure

Has anyone done the funny voiced 'Accrington Stanley' joke?

I did in the voice of Gore Vidal. It didn't seem as funny.

*That* Quarter Final (plus *that* Quarter Final in the League Cup). Oh, what a lovely place the Bolelyn was.

Have we got anybody out on loan who has already played in an earlier round who we could recall and then re-loan out to them ?

Best to start a new thread "Who will West Ham get in the 4th round draw?"

[lovejoy]

To be honest - Ive got to the point that I think we'll contrive to lose whoever we play.

At least going out in an "All Premier League Clash" has more respect than some of them. 

Agreed, from Unai’s perspective it’s a good draw. No shame in going out to that lot.

cheap tickets hopefully , £25 adults , £5 kids

[Mister E]

I'm looking forward to Dirty Leeds vs Harrogate Town ...

Actually that’s not a bad draw for us. The fact that it’s not a lower league side will hopefully prevent a hugely weakened side being put out. Also the players will feel optimistic about beating WHU given the right level of effort.

The strength of their team
Will depend on where they are in the table by then and who is the manager.
We will not be at full strength.

The West Ham game is on a Friday at 8pm.

I do love a Friday night under the lights at Villa Park.

Never a penalty.
The Met certainly did a good job that day, just stood there and watched and then piled in and only nicked away fans.

[London Villan]

Going to have to be some very competitive prices for this.
