They can’t recall them outside the window.

It’s not outside the window.

Bollocks to Chelsea the only remaining game we need to win is tomorrow night.

Deja vu - 1966 - we beat Forest at home in the FA Cup - we went to Stamford Bridge in the cup and took them to a replay - then we won the World Cup - you heard it here first

 

[Amin Arrears]

Right, so you’re saying Juve loaned out Simone Zaza so he would singlehandedly beat them and almost ruin their title defence.

Yes it’s all coming together now.

We both know that you are well aware of what they're all up to without me pointing it out.

In which month? Cos if it wasn't February...

Are you being daft deliberately?

Pity Southport were not in tonight's draw - that would have completed the chain if we'd drawn them in the 5th at home
Suppose if we'd drawn Southampton at home tonight it would have reflected a bit more symmetry with '66 ! Followed by Chelsea in the 6th. Great memories. Not sure about England's chances mind

I was going to ask you the same.

I really don’t understand your point when you say they can’t recall them after January.

City won the World Cup?

You first mentioned them being recalled. Why you thought it relevant I don’t know. They have two days remaining to recall them. After that they can’t be recalled.

Yep, that was precisely what I meant and what I said when I stated that ‘they can recall them tomorrow if they want’.

Really not quite sure why we’ve just had these last few posts since then.

Because we can.

When City were in the 5th round of the FAC in '65-'66, 9 of the 20 teams in tonight's draw were also in it ! 2 of the 9 need to win replay's ( 'Udders & Spurs).

 

[SimonGraysJacket]

I can't help but think Marshall might have a change of heart when he said he hopes he plays in the next round........

 

[Charon]

why the **** would Chelsea recall them - we've probably got the three worst players on Chelsea's book and we're paying their wages

City won the World Cup?

Hull first, Yorkshire second, England third - all we

City won the World Cup?

Yep, Don Robinson would have had us win the inaugral Moon Cup as well

 

[Barchullona]

We would have felt like it was a home game on the moon.

especially with all those craters making it look like a nuclear fallout zone which is the current state of the club

Was thinking more of the lack of atmosphere.

Slight tack to port here but is Charles Eckberg ( sp) still alive? He was the old bugger who used to report from Blundell Park on Blunderside a good few years back?
