    I would like to win the most exciting, most dramatic, most romantic, most utterly wonderful, this-is-what-dreams-are-made-of knockout competition in the world please <ok>

    Who wouldn't want to win that?

    I'll hazard a bet that most of the youngsters on here want Premier League, and most of the oldies want FA Cup.

    Me, I'm 35, and gone for cup, personally.

    I might be young(ish) to some on here, but I've still somehow got hip and knee issues, haha.

    Winning the FA Cup then getting relegated in the same season would be a great way of showing what a brilliant team you are wouldn’t. Worthy winners indeed:1980_boogie_down:

    Hmm 52-48 split in the voting......that sounds familiar.

    Are we all going to kick off and start calling each other names? :emoticon-0126-nerd:

    I voted for the PL. Mostly for the practical concerns like finding streams to actually watch my team play and how we've only just started getting talented youth into our u18's since the last time we went down.

    With our wage structure as it is I think we would have real trouble bouncing back up so i'd rather have the memory of last year's cup final and PL/ + competing for another cup next year then the memory of a cup final Win and Mid-table championship.

    It’s all about opinions and please don’t take this as a dig, but I find this very sad.

    Yep me too. People would actually rather compete in a competition than win one.

    Surely winning a trophy is the pinnacle for a club like us and the best we could realistically achieve.

    I’m 27, I would prefer a cup win. It would be magic. The premier league is boring now anyway :)

    The thing for me is we recently have been fantastic in our league achievements. I loved that and I want that again. I want us to try and break into the top 6 again, maybe break into the top 4 one year and maybe do a miracle like Leicester.

    Right now, I’d take that FA Cup thanks. This is two games from a final, whereas league “success” could be a long way off.

    Last season we were 8th in the league. Our third highest ever Premier League finish. Most of our fans just moaned. It is good but not really exciting or memorable.
