The FA Cup (Other football)

[amfy]

We have 27,000 ST holders as Heck let it run down last year instead of taking many iff the waiting list and Google says the fans allocation is around 30,000

I don't want to be presumptuous, but I'd like to draw one of the Portuguese teams when we qualify for the Europa League by winning the FA Cup.

Preston North End are a great club. It will be a tough away assignment at Deepdale. I am looking no further than that. I hope we somehow get through.

This discussion is going in a very dangerous direction.

We have to play Preston and they will be massively up for it.
I suspect they may think WE are the most beatable team left in the competition, at home.

We need to be respectful and not count any chickens.

This link seems to be working elsewhere so hopefully it will here as it belongs here.
Back in 2015 I was one of those asked to take part in a little fan feature before the Cup Final & this was the trailer.
I took the PNE supporting OH with me as he'd been to every game in the FA Cup trail. He insisted on wearing his PNE shirt. Here we are playing - staring role in that trailer!

[London Villan]

We've lost against too many teams we "should" beat, in the latter stage of cups, to be even talking about Wembley.

These four spring to mind...
Bolton (twice)
Bradford
Oldham
Small Heath

[Olneythelonely]

I’m not counting my chickens but I have 7 chickens.

Then again, we beat Liverpool in our last FAC semi final. Under the big brains guidance of Tim Sherwood.

Wasn't Leeg on that as well, unless I'm thinking of a different one?

We have a bit of a break from brugges 2nd leg to preston.

We should have no excuses of fatigue for preston game thats for sure. We will be all recharged for this game and hopefully  have most of the team back

What brings you to them suspecting that?  The form of Rashford or Asensio? Our injury record? Something else?

So you want to go into Europa League when we have won the European Cup again?

I forgot that you can't enter two European competitions in the same season.

The outcome of the match will not be affected, either positively or negatively, by comments in this thread. At worst some people will make themselves look a bit previous.

Legion featured heavily in the full feature. This is just the trailer.
