Giving some serious thought now we are that close - i think Man Utd would be the best match for us to take - We should be getting used to Wembley by now ie three more times - Europe would be interesting - discuss !

I think United too. I would've said Man City, but we get to play them in the Charity Shield.

Bit early? I fancy us to beat Wolves of course…But no way am I dreaming of the team we play other than it could be 1/7

If we make the final do we qualify for Europe regardless of winning it. As who ever we play (apart from Leicester) will already of qualified

That's a poor choice by whoever is in charge.

Naturally, we'll comfortably beat Wolves.
Leicester has the easier path against Chelski.
Likely a Man Utd vs. Coventry final. Un Less we have to beat them first in the semis, just depends on the draw I suppose.

I know people want one of the big sides but really do think it would be better to play someone we have a chance of beating.

Man United

Manure for me . The train from Manchester Piccadilly with all the northern SBA would be unreal. They just wouldn’t believe how many of us live up here . Plus they’re shite !!!

Would be disappointing in the extreme. Completely one sided and I still don’t see them as a glamorous club

They arent. In my life time, historically they were a less successful club until they got billionaire owners which i do not think adds to a clubs stature. I mean Solihull Moors could win the Champions League in 10 years time if they have billions pumped into them for instance.
So, i see us as bigger than Man City historically, albeit i appreciate if you go back before i was born then they have won more than us even before they sold out as a club.
By contrast Liverpool and Manure are genuine globally recognised huge clubs dripping in history. They are glamour clubs albeit i despise both. Having Liverpool or Man Utd on our CV with Tottenham Hotspur (another glamour club with history) looks so much more impressive than Man City or Chelsea, neither of which for a lot of my life were as big or successful as us. Not sure if that makes sense hope you get my general point.

Same for me. Man City were a wank team we used to get a good few points from and in my 20’s ended up in league 1. Still have to pinch myself to see where they are now. Anybody but them please. I’d have second thoughts about going tbh. Not like we haven’t had the Wembley experience over last 7 years

Man City have always been a big successful club. Before they got bought out they'd already won 2 Division One titles, 4 FA Cups, 2 EFL Cups and a European Cup Winners Cup.
Our history doesn't even compare to theirs.

You missed my point. All that was way before i was born so to me we were the bigger club traditionally in my lifetime.

Chelsea definitely the team we could hurt the most. But Palmer is on a different level.
