IF Man City win the league (still a way off) and we somehow manage to get past United, regardless of the score in the final,

WE WOULD BE PLAYING IN THE EUROPA LEAGUE NEXT SEASON

How f**kin' mental is that ?

Our current fixture list has us playing Ipswich at 3 that day, the FA cup final time TBC. So it's got to be a morning or a night game!

back in the 90s in their Fergie era, those cunts used to basically take over coventry in town in the pubs and in the ground in our sections. Back then they had a huge amount of glory hunting cunts who were very entitled as Man Utd had just won their first league in 25 years so they all came crawling out the woodwork.
The same will happen now, London will be taken over by them everywhere that weekend. No other fanbase would have been like that, certainly not Man City.
I wanted Liverpool to win, as in my lifetime never had any issues with them by comparison.

I agree with the remarks about entitled Utd fans, especially at HR in the 90’s, but it’s a different era now?

All of the plastic Utd glory supporters are probably back on their default ‘I support Liverpool’ settings by now.

Anyway, we’d out-noise them if they had 100,000 in attendance; they’re a dire fan base these days.

All PL fans are cunts. Personally I’d rather play Man Utd than any of the others, but Cov Twitter is going to be filled with obnoxious 13 year olds from some random Saudi state talking about use being a small club regardless.

On the day it’s just going to be a normal Wembley game.

Think it’s just a general ban as one off red card, so applies to next prem game but might be wrong

There is a reason for them taking over large parts of HR back then.

They used to say Man U always beat us whenever they won the FA Cup. Then we beat them en route to our famous FA Cup win. They can be beaten. We have nothing to lose and no reason to be afraid.

No we’d have to win the cup to get to Europe or it goes to a PL side.

Chelsea and Man City both have games in the week before, Tuesday and Thursday nights I think.

It would make sense for them to have the Sunday for the extra day recovery
Click to expand...
Also they have to take account of the fact we have a match on the Tuesday after. So seems like it should be Saturday for us.

Am I making it up… but are we classed as the home team and play in Sky blue ( eg if it was v Man City we would be in our home kit) and we get the choice of dressing rooms!!
Click to expand...
This was already set before...

Play Man U = Play in home kit

Play Man C = Play in away kit

Play Chelsea = They play in our away kit

I know and think that’s unfair. The Europa league spot could go to Wolves who we beat.

Just looked it up. Red cards apply across all competitions, yellow just in the cup. That is fucking ridiculous. Kasey should have got himself a red and he would have been able to play in the semi final. Which twat makes these rules.

How many yellows do you have to accumulate for a suspension? 2? Annoying as Palmer played more games to accumulate those cards

The main thing for me is the kick off time, is it 3 pm on both days ?

If yesterday was a big ask then the semifinal is a gigantic ask. I’m taking it as it is in reality-a good day out and as long as we don’t get trounced which could affect morale I’ll be happy. Besides, the way we won against Wolves was like winning the Cup already.
One thing is for sure-they won’t ousting or outshout us.

I wonder if there is a way to appeal this decision and present the facts and the ridiculousness of how the rules have been set up.

It’s definitely being played on Saturday 20th April. A friend of mine is a Man Utd season ticket holder and he’s already received an email from the club confirming the date with the kick off time tbc

TBF they were all over the ground in the game in 1993, think that was a one off though not a regular occurrence

It took them ten days to decide the match dates and KO times last year so I’d be amazed if this was the case. All the authorities including TV need to sit down and discuss all options.

Absolutely ideal draw, as long as it wasn't City...both Chelsea and United have that bottle job game in them, just gotta hope it's on the day.
