    This is off one of the Facebook groups I’m on.
    For me it has to be the blue door, I’m surprised by the number of people in the comments who selected the red door.

    FA Cup every day of the week. Promotion would be great in terms of helping the club grow but a cup is something nobody can ever take away from us. Hope I see one in my lifetime.

    Red door, financial stability for the club.

    Plus I wouldn't be able to afford both a semi final and final at Wembley.

    Red door every time. And anyway we’ve been eliminated from the competition this season.

    Red door just about. That is the next step to the club growing! As good as a fa cup win would be the reality is the money and stability this ownership could build with promotion and staying up would be worth a lot more in the long run!

    Trophy. My life is complete if we win a major trophy.

    We’d also have Europe.

    Just think, if you go through the red door, you get more money, you can afford to buy better players, build a better squad. Maybe one even strong enough to win the FA Cup...

    Absolutely the blue door. To be honest, I'd take that door if it was the league cup or the FA cup plus relegation to League one.

    I don't want to be "that" person but it says not promoted win fa cup next season! So don't get prompted this season but win fa cup next. Clearly promotion and staying up the red door is far more valuable to the club!

    Tough this one like. I’d love to see us lift a meaningful trophy but unfortunately the domestic trophies mean nout these days, even the average PL teams field their reserves. Probably still go with the FA cup because you get European qualification.

    Doesn’t it <laugh>

    Mad trek to Lithuania, some views in Iceland, off to some obscure team that finished 9th in Italy and a mad trip to Holland to play in Alkmaar or some ****.

    Class.

    The FA cup has been utterly devalued for me. Understand the desire for silverware but it just means very very little to me.

    I'd take promotion and stability in the premier league over an anomalous cup victory personally.

    Though I hope all of you supporters closer to home do get that kind of special day at the football soon.
