Today: Arsenal vs. Everton Tomorrow:City vs. Sunderland Man. City vs. Wigan Sheff. Utd. vs. Charlton Wouldn't it be great to beat Sunlan and draw the Blades in the Semi?
It would be embarrassing being outnumbered 2 to 1 by Blunts fans. It would be too expensive for our fans and Sheff Utd are not a big attraction to all the PL groupies.
Yes, Wigan in the semi, Blades in the final. It's all academic of course, I have little faith that we'll emerge victorious on the morrow. It's Sunderlands turn, they'll be fired up to get one over us after the way the league fixtures went. We'll be fielding a weakened attack which becomes a problem when you can quite evidently tell neither of them has barely played a minute for near enough 2 months (and some for Aluko) and they're so rusty their 2nd touch is a tackle more often than not. Then you factor in that we've struggled to sell a handful of tickets, Sunderland sold out an entire stand in minutes, and now they'll be all round the home stands, all of them well up for it. It ain't looking good, wish I'd opted to just watch on the telly. **** happens.
Straight after our game Live on ITV.1 Semi's Arsenal v. Manchester City (@Wembley saturday 12th April) Hull City v. Sheffield Utd (@ Wembley sunday 13th April) Fingers crossed eh ?? The Tiger into Europe next.
We lost to Arsenal in 1930 SF & also in the 2008 QF so we owe them one. So I'd go for Blades SF & Arsenal final
Ever since the 80's I've dreamt of beating Sheff Utd at Wembley 5-0 with 30,000 of us screaming 'we only hate Sheff Utd, HATE SHEFF UTD' so I'd take the blunts in the semi's or the final.
I'd take public enemy no 1 followed by Arsenal, stuff them both big time, first major trophy, Europe to follow. This will brand us without changing the name and everyone will want a slice of the action including those possible sponsors that have been talked about. Glory days
If you're right an all Yorkshire final then, it is written. City Till I Die [video=youtube_share;h-Sc9Rsp2XM]http://youtu.be/h-Sc9Rsp2XM[/video]
