So is that good are bad ?
Are we home or away this year ?
Hopefully we are home, even though we are away........Discombobulated.

We're the "away" team this year, even though we're at "home" but we'll be using our "home" dressing room because we use the away one at Wembley...

I think, its all confusing for a Monday morning!

Thanks for clearing that up.

Wait..........what.....

At RedCafe, a few minutes after the SF draw, it dawns on them: Who Decided Spurs could use Wembley?

Probably the same people who decided Fergies "Yanited" got an extra five mins to win their games if they wanted it.

 

[Bazali]

I can't see the problem, we're the away team, therefore at a disadvantage (the home team bogs get andrex, it's only Tescos in the away dressing room.)
I wonder if we'll play in our away strip just to prove a point.

I thought the home team get wipes!

Who uses paper nowadays apart from Sausage Vince!

 

[Bazali]

Haha I’ve just got a disagree for this AFTER the draw..of Fuzzyfelt have you been on the Sherry?

Was he the Spammer that nearly got shagged by Noble?

Only started going to games in the glory years of 2001-02, got a season ticket 2004.
Memory is absolute shite if I wasn't at the game.

 

[sammyspurs]

Utd can take comfort in that their fans will only have to travel round the corner anyway.......its a home game for everyone but the team.

I think it's more that the list you used simply lists the winning team first!

..... Looks like you're bob-on there.
Fucks sake, see what happens when you take 1 day off work and get pissed on a Sunday. Fuck this I'm going back to bed

If we lose an 8th successive fa cup semi final I think that would literally do me in.

 

[Colonel_K]

Explain yourself...

First season Scotty P was great with Modric. Second season under AVB he turned into that slow 360’ing oil tanker.

Nice way to troll United fans...

 

[YTpaxton]

First FA Cup semi-final I went to was '93. Been to them all since.

Thank me later.
