Did you know five teams have accounted for 31 of the last 36 FA Cups.

26 out of the last 29 too. Fingers crossed not this season, even if it isn't us.

The final would be devastating, but you'd take that all day wouldn't you.

I'm hoping we can scab through PSG and Arsenal somehow do Real Madrid. We have a serious chance then. What are we to reach the final? Approx 9s or 10s? Feels about right.

Just checked. 9s and 10s mainly, but couple of bookies offering 12/1.

With a fair wind we can do PSG. I think they've been overblown because they've turned over a shit Man City and a rapidly declining Liverpool. They still finished 15th in the group stage, even with mitigation of a tough draw and having improved since, it's not exactly something to be running scared from.

I know PSG and tough league fixtures are looming large but, I only care about beating Preston as it stands.

Said all season we'll finish 7th so sticking by that as feels like we've left a little too much to do now to finish 5th even if we have a decent end. Relying on too many above us to all lose form significantly.

Quarter finals feels our natural end in the CL but I have a feeling we'll give PSG far more of a difficult game than the neutrals are predicting. Many would've been happy to draw them in the knockouts three months back.

FA Cup....I think we play the final this year.

I've been the last 7 times to Wembley and seen us lose five, win a semi-final that essentially meant nothing (0-4 Arsenal was up next) and beat Derby, which was obviously incredible

Can't make either the semi or the final this season. Trust me, it's our year

And 5th in the PL.

If that happened the statue built in SUE image would be as big as the old King Kong in the city centre.

We probably still wouldn't get a mention on Sky sports

FA Cup forecasting please along with Villa who are you predicting to be in semi finals of FA Cup?
Fulham v Palace ? Fulham
Brighton v Forest ? Brighton
Bournemouth v Man City ? Bournemouth
I forecasted Villa to win FA Cup reach semi finals of Champions League and finish 4/5
I also predicted all but one of the european champions league quarter finalists however I was wrong forecasting these FA Cup quarter finals .

Part of that was of preference for winners though but still not so good on forecasting on the weekend occasion! in fact completely pathetic as didn’t get one correct.

That said I’m risk and reward as prepared to share here and have a go which not many or any did on the quarter finals.
so i can give myself some credit for at least trying.
