FA CUP 2017/18

[1882]

Watched the second half of Woolwich on BT....was a proper fa cup game....had everything....pens, red cards, excitement! Could have been almost any score!

...but the score that mattered was 4-2! FOUR FUCKING TWO!!

 

[Nutter-Naylor]

Thanking you Sir!

(was it the dated 3-2-1 reference that lost me the vital point?)

No mate. Just that your West Ham one the other day set the benchmark very high.

 

[Paul Allen's Omen]

I was thinking that too... but we didn't actually play on the Saturday, we played a day later on the 5th, against Villa... and drew... 0-0... and lost the replay!
FA Cup 1991-92
R3 5 January 1992 Aston Villa A 0–0 29,316
R3R 14 January 1992 Aston Villa H 0–1 25,462

So come on, when was the last FA Cup 3rd Round day where we won, and they lost??

I'm genuinely struggling to think... was it as far back as the '80s??

Spursy!!!!

Spursy!!!!

even then!

Seconded. Taking the wife. Hopefully a cold January afternoon vs Wimbledon will put her off.

The opposite happened: cold but sunny, and steamrolling a weaker team by three goals means she'll want to come back and see more of the same. Hope you were sitting near the home end

(This was my wife's second game and she wants to check out NWHL when it's ready too)

Target for the weekend was to get through to next round and 1 other top side to go out. Achieved

Now need to avoid a premiership team in draw tonight

 

[Totti]

Wouldn't mind an away tie at Forest.

Big club. Big history. Nice to get one over on the team that knocked that small club out from South London.

17/32 at a minimum are not PL clubs, could be as high as 21 depending on results. All EFL clubs, though, nothing tier 5 or lower.

My prediction: @MK Dons. Spurs eliminate anything Don related from FA Cup. 0-4.

• Spurs haven't lost an FA Cup home game against a side from a lower division since a third round replay vs Nottingham Forest in January 1975, winning 31 and drawing seven since then

Perhaps not a good idea tempting fate even if away.

 

[Tottenham Loyal]

That Forest at home replay was Brian Clough's first game in charge of Forest. The atmosphere at WHL that night was brilliant. The Saturday game was very violent up in Nottingham.

 

[Jenny Talia]

If there is any justice then we get Yeovil at home, United get City and Chelsea get Liverpool.

 

[Ginolaflair]

Christ i wish they'd get on with it!
