    Win promotion or the FA Cup ?

    I don't think it will be. I reckon if we go say 2 nil up, we will take our foot off the gas and just try and kill the game off. We are also trying to save players too who are tired and exhausted, so we may well field one or two who are not quite first team regulars

    Win promotion or the FA Cup ?

    Yup. They had to buy 22 players or something didn't they. Nearly didn't work either though. I think that's an anomaly though. So many who go up come straight back down again and other sides look much better equipped to be able to survive than us

    Win promotion or the FA Cup ?

    What sort of chance do you realistically think you have got? I know people here are talking of 4, 5 nil wins plus for us but I think that's a bit disrespectful. I would be happy with a 2-0. I'm sure you will fight tooth and nail and throw everything into chasing and harrying and closing down...

    Win promotion or the FA Cup ?

    No, I don't think so. Not yet. We are just hanging on to 6th place aren't we. When you look at the table, Leeds and Leicester are 18 points and 27 points ahead of us, respectively. If we were flying at the top of the league, it would be different, but we're not. Not sure many of this squad...

    Win promotion or the FA Cup ?

    Yeah, but the question wasn't which is the most achievable. I know this is all lighthearted etc, but for this who have said "promotion," I do think that would pretty much be the end of Robins here with us next year. Pretty much undoubtedly he would be sacked. Careful for what you wish for. 🤪

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Handmaid's Tale. Which is even more genius, because it's all based on Trump coming to power even though it was written in 1985 and set in the future. Remember Offred. Well, this is Offthecharts

    Win promotion or the FA Cup ?

    England promoted in the Nations League over the City getting promotion AND winning the FA Cup without any shadow of a doubt.

    Win promotion or the FA Cup ?

    Oh and what nails if for me I think is... Win the FA Cup and it would cement Robins as a true legend. Hero forever. We get promoted and get pummelled every week and there is not a zero shred of doubt in my mind that there would be a huge swathe of fans calling for MR to be sacked. It would...

    Win promotion or the FA Cup ?

    That is true, but if a Championship team were suddenly to win it, I think it would get people believing in the magic of the cup again. Imagine that instead of the usual, Chelsea, Man City, Man U, Liverpool, Arsenal, repeat, rinse and repeat stuff. It would change everyone's perception I think

    Win promotion or the FA Cup ?

    There are indeed. Absolutely nuts that people would say promotion ahead of cup win isn't it.

    Win promotion or the FA Cup ?

    Yeah, fair comment. Would go down the annuls of history and be talked about endlessly for decades, if a Championship team won the FA Cup.

    Yup. What more perfect place to start other than to remove all these crooked lawyers, judges and politicians and deranged FBI investigators and insane DA's.

    Something urgent needs to happen

    Yup. Very puzzling.

    This is only up to 2020. Must be so much more comprehensive by now. Anyone who says anything against him, has to have some adjective thrown at the front of their name in any retort. He's using "crooked" again for the judge that passed the sentence yesterday. Will there become a time when...

    Win promotion or the FA Cup ?

    The likelihood and seemingly most obvious outcome would be, if we went up we would get walked over most weeks and would come straight back down again. I want us to play top level football, but I want to see us do it when we really feel we could actively compete and not just be canon fodder.

    Win promotion or the FA Cup ?

    FA Cup. That's as much based on the fact that I think we would get absolutely pumulled every week in the Premier League and the taste of promotion would quickly sour. Whereas, an FA Cup win would be cemented in the history books and be cherished forever more. The FA Cup is a win. Promotion...

    Something urgent needs to happen

    I didn't see that. If he showed remorse at the time, that makes the statement much more acceptable. I do still think he did it on purpose though. Didn't at all look like he was trying to fend him off and put his arm to Sakamoto's chest. Seemed like a deliberate elbow to the face.

    Something urgent needs to happen

    Exactly that. He didn't seem at all bothered at the time did he. It's only after he had been charged that he's suddenly become remorseful

    Probably not, but one day I am sure we will see a mass-shooting at a penalty shootout.
