    Say something positive about our cup draw, will you be there?

    I am delighted to announce that after checking my diary, I will be mainly unavailable for this game, and that it may be similarly engaged for any future cup events thereafter up until my demise, on the basis that two can play the long historical game.

    ummm probably not tbh. i might take my nephews there but don't see the point, cost of travel, day out and tickets will cost too much for what is in essence a friendly

      Stopped going to cup games the moment Ollie was appointed.
      As the bloke has said himself " a tea bag stays in the cup longer than I do "

      Remember our appalling run of failure in cup competitions under him last time he was here. To be fair there were other managers along the way who have been no better either.

              I was watching it on a poor quality stream and actually thought we had drawn Man Utd at home so was briefly feeling positive (about the draw not our chances of progression)

                  It's been going on for years and to be honest it's farkin disgrace that clubs are allowed to treat this competition with such indifference it's about time the FA and football put penalties in that clubs must field a minimum of 6 1st teamers for each game

                    Couldn't agree more. And the reason I haven't been to a cup game since what I think was Warnock's final game in MK.

                    Nothing other than a gross lack of respect for the fans in my opinion. With the idiot managers thinking they're being clever.

                      Couldn't agree more, about teams undermining the F.A. cup. but the F.A were partly at fault of undermining their own competition the year that they allowed Manchester Utd to opt out and go and play in some two bob world championship that no one was interested in.other than Utd, Also think that the F.A should be lobbying to get the winners a champions League place. the premier league will not want to give up one of their places, and don't give a $hit about the FA and the FA cup. As for us I would really like us to take it seriously and put a descent team out and give it a go, but I doubt it very much and Holloway as previous managers, treats the cups with utter contempt, by putting understrength $hit teams out which is why I've not attended a League cup game in 3 years.and with our cup record it's only one game a year

                        I'd absolutely love us to have a decent cup run. Our record is shameful, and a cup run can bring some confidence back. Whereas being bent over and rodgered senseless by a group of part timers or whatever doesn't solve anything.

                        Mid table, so we have no excuse not to have a go.

                          Will you stay until the end?

                            Chucked out of your normal seat. Chaos trying to get into SA Road stand.Bl**y pillars in the way. U23s being played out of position. Poor atmosphere. Management treating it as a joke. What's not like?

                              Something positive.... that is very difficult. We all know what we'll get as far as the team will be and our history tells us it will be just another 90 minute stay in this years competition.
