    Well I guess that is the issue here .

    Even with VAR decisions will be debated !

    Surely it cannot be right for Watford to have VAR but Swansea don't.

    That was the issue in the Millwall Everton tie. Premier League teams have it in the cup at home, Football league teams do not.

    Swansea have a Premier league quality modern ground so sure it could have been fitted in.

  7. Hmm - easiest game would on paper be Milwall. Does anyone actually want that?

    Well their fans might be trouble and they'd probably play on the fancy foreigners line etc.

    Wolves would be 50/50 and Brighton are a solid side defensive wise so be tricky naturally.

    Be up to us to turn up in that game unlike a couple of years when we played them at the Den!

    Thing is if Swansea had VAR Man City might be out!

    Just recovered really. A great win. Thought we were poor for the first half hour of the second half but hung on in there and got the result. Restricting the Palace fans to 3100 was the best £36,000 the club will ever spend. Treble over Palace brilliant. Sitting near the halfway line in the lower GT gave a completely different perspective on the game. I thought we needed to get behind the team a bit more in last 10 mins so I started ranting a bit (as I normally do) and the old(ish) lady next to my son asked him ‘where do you normally sit?’. I think I was a bit too rowdy for the lower GT but I was just thinking we were 10 mins away from the SF! A great day and bring on Wembley!

    i was lucky to go to liverpool and leicester games on this trip and because of poor health i decided not to risk going to the Palace game (or go to the Pub) Im not sure if its me not there or Zaha helped the horns I had planed to go back after going to the Man U and the Fulham/Semi game but because of family problems im trying to go back next week .Most years im here march and sept so you can see our results are not that good then so keep you hope up i will not be there.

    Well both teams will fancy it so guess you could call the tie 50/50!

    Hopefully we turn up and perform this time.

    I will be in Belgium that weekend. I am supposed to be working. I wonder if I should skive off? I wonder if I could afford to skive off?
    I the game is mid-day on Sunday 7th I will seriously think about it.

    Will be the Sunday as Man City play in the Champions League on the Tuesday.

    Probably mid-afternoon like last time.

    Knew it would be Sunday. Just think the atmosphere is a bit flatter on Sundays rather than Saturdays. Not sure why??

    Do you have a brother who sits at the back of the Lower GT Stand with his daughter roughly on the halfway line
