Given that we could get through to the European Cup semi and have to play on the Tuesday, surely they have to give us the Saturday?

Hope not. Can’t go if they do. And that should always come before the fitness of our players.

I imagine they'll be extra helpful and make us play it on the Monday.

Or maybe the Tuesday lunchtime.

Man City match might be re-arranged for the Tuesday/Wednesday beforehand. Depending if our SF tie for the FA Cup is Sat or Sunday will knock on to whether our 1st Leg CL tie is Tuesday or Wednesday.

Beat Palace and we go into a cup final with a genuine chance of winning it. Maybe Chelsea in 2000 was the last time we did that.

They do have a very good record against us but Emery had a nightmare at Selhurst a few weeks back. Id draw a line under that one. A fully fit Kamara will make a big difference in midfield, solid back four required and maybe McGinn on the right. They can't be allowed to bully us again.

The semis should be played at a neutral ground.

Well, time for Unai to reveal that conceding a hatfull against them in recent games has been a cunning plan to lull Palace into a false sense of security.

We get through to a SF and that’s where you’re taking this conversation?

Said it before, your season ticket allows you to reduced price admission for 19 Premier league matches. Nothing more.

And the SF game will have more tickets assigned to each club than the final will. Can’t wait for those comments should we get there.

We know what we're doing in this competition. Either sack it off in the third round or go to Wembley. It is the way.
