1878 Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 BBC will always take the Premiership teams as they don;t get to show them and Sky will take Us possibly. I think the BBC though have to take a minnow vs bigger team as part of the contract. BBC - Villa v Man Utd and probably Spuds or West Ham and then the Burnley game against the Arse. Sky - Toon I would be astonished if somebody never showed Chelsea vs QPR- West London Derby. Don't think your match will be on telly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohmelads Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 I've been and didn't have any problem with the home support. You've ruined the hysteria of this thread! You're right though. It's really not that difficult to avoid trouble at football games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Good draw. We'll win. And get knocked out before the semis. Difficult to get excited about the FA Cup nowadays. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 I do love the FA Cup. I know people regard this concept as 'stereotypical bullshit', but on a personal level i think i really would love to see us win the cup more than the league. But it's shite nowadays; as soon as we go away from home against a decent side - which happens eventually - we're fucked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's s**** nowadays; as soon as we go away from home against a decent side - which happens eventually - we're f*****. True. To lift the trophy you probably (unless you get a ridiculously lucky draw) have to beat at least one of the big four and when it matters most, we simply cant do it.
