Saint86 Posted 9 March, 2014 Share Posted 9 March, 2014 Personally think the club have thrown away the perfect chance to not only reach an fa cup semi, but also the final. Hull had a home draw against Sunderland but also a 3rd tier team at Wembley in the semi. Man. Ity are in the pro ess of losing at home to Wigan 2-0 at time of writing and are on the other side of the draw for the final anyway. Worst case outcome had we bothered to try vs Sunderlands second string was a final vs arsenal as the bare minimum. Once again I am fuming.. If MoPo really wanted Europe it was there on a plate, with a proper cup final and a chance to avenge 2003. He's either lying or awful at squad rotation.. not that a 10day rest did our players any good agaist west ham.... Or Liverpool. Ah well, at least we can enjoy 8th/9th hey guys!

Badger Posted 9 March, 2014 Share Posted 9 March, 2014 Yes - could have won it, but could possibly have f^cked it up at Hull or v Sheff Utd. Great shame. But we'll never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point off 10th + semi final + wembley vs 9th. No way!! Wouldnt swap 9th for anything Pure arrogance. The fact of the matter is that we have been unable to beat Sunderland all season, with or without our best available team. We'd have had to win that one, and then beat Hull away and then won another game and then another one. Meanwhile you dredge up your little stats like 5 wins in 22 or whatever number suits your agenda and then conveniently forget that we'd need to win 4 out of 4 to win the cup. Yeh we ****ed up at Sunderland, it happens, Man City just lost at home to Wigan, it happens. Get the **** over it, stop posting the same old **** hour after hour day after day and get a ****ing life!

Smirking_Saint Posted 9 March, 2014 Share Posted 9 March, 2014 I won't ever condone giving up on the cup, it is a huge missed chance and I have no idea what the point is in entering either cup while MP is manager. BUT, let's not pretend the draw or results would have been the same if we'd beaten Sunderland. Hope Arsenal mess it up. Be great to see a non-Prem side win it. If Wenger cocks this up he should be sacked frankly. As per giving up on the cup what a ton of crap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weston Saint Posted 9 March, 2014 Share Posted 9 March, 2014 I do not want the disappointment of losing in the semi. I do not want the disappointment of losing in the final I do not want to win the cup, see us enter Europe with too small a squad and end up being relegated next season because we spread ourselves too thin. Look at Wigan, Swansea, Birmingham and other before. WE ARE NOT YET READY FOR EUROPE. We need to build an experienced squad over the next few years to give us a fighting chance. Yes I was disappointed with our loss at Sunderland but I had got ove it by the evening. Life is so much more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have an excellent team of quality young players, a progressive head coach, great academy, and 9th in the league (we were doomed just 5 yrs ago) So yes, just what have we got to fall out about ?

Jimmy_D Posted 9 March, 2014 Share Posted 9 March, 2014 Spare a thought for Sunderland, their clear route to the final was stopped by Hull. Or for City, who had their quadruple hopes crushed by Wigan. Then there's Man Utd, who surely should have done better than the Third Round? Yes, we could have done better, but it's the fact we're gutted, rather than resigned, that shows the progress we've made, rather than the stage we went out or the draw we would have had. Nothing we can do about what's happened except use it to drive us on to do better next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
