    We're the worst team left in the competition.

    But we're still in it. So bollocks, let's try and win it.

    This PL season is a copy of 2005, but this FA Cup run is a copy of '76, sooo basically we're going down with the cup...

    That Spurs/United tie has got me in the mood. Today is the first time this season that I've started looking forward to Wembley.

    Yeah, me too <laugh>


    Very conflicted about Liverpool in the CL now. English club and all that, plus I do like the way they play. Maybe if they get to the final and Van Dilk misses it due to a ban, I'll be able to cheer them on.

    Good news is it sounds like Thor is on our side.

    I'll take all the help we can get.

    I've just realised that the last time Spurs won the FA Cup was the year my adult son was born. And the last time they won the league was the year I was born <laugh>

    That's cheered me up no end, that has <diva>

    An uninteresting fact is that when my Italian mother was born Italy were World Champions, and when she passed away they were also World Champions.

    When I was born, England were World Champions. Next time we win it, I have less than 4 years left :)

    Did I say that I had a dream last night (actually I had about 4, real weird night of dreams) and we won 2-1. I didn't dream anything of the game, just remember the arch and the score:

    Chelsea 1-2 Southampton

    I NEVER have football dreams.

    Also, another good omen is that I am wearing a new pair of jeans and a new red shirt (not Saints shirt as in Club Wembley and no colours), so whilst they may not be lucky, they are not unlucky clothes either :)

    It's in the stars!

    I’m going on holiday tomorrow and will probably not know the score until the evening. It’s going to be hard not knowing the score but I will be with the boys in spirit!

    Come on lads!

    I’m already in London ready for the game. I don’t think I will get that much sleep tonight. Time to go out clubbing and a few drinks!

    I too feel we have a good chance as long as they don’t kill us in the first 8 mins or the last 8 mins of either half! Mark is getting them to respond with whatever he and his team are doing on the training field. It’s the mental fragility that is still a concern though when under sustained pressure. Let’s hope they’ve got the row Z tactic in their mind when clearing the penalty area if required!!
