One thing he is 100% right on is winning the kangaroo cup will not keep our players, ergo Berba and Keane left after we won it in 2008 and we sacked our Manger at the start of the new season.Don’t tell United fans that - they won the second rate double last season!
Seriously, I’m fine with Poch not caring about this cup until the semis.
At the same time, I want to win it.
Winning it only counts if you’re Utd or Liverpool. Nobody gave a fuck when we won it in 2008. It meant nothing to the wider football world, and rightly so.Don’t tell United fans that - they won the second rate double last season!

I still think they should make the Football Cup for the Football League only. Premier league teams shouldn’t even be in the competition.Winning it only counts if you’re Utd or Liverpool. Nobody gave a fuck when we won it in 2008. It meant nothing to the wider football world, and rightly so.

Poch has his priorities straight, but he’s fucked either way. If we win it, it won’t matter because it’s a second rate cup. If we lose, Tottenham haven’t won silverware so all the work that he’s done doesn’t mean anything.
It just fucking infuriates me. It’s like people that say we should pay like the other top 6 when their WAGE BILLS ARE HIGHER THAN OUR OUTLAY.
No respect for long term ambition and building a club through the academy and smart decisions. Who were City and Chelsea before slave and oil money? Nothing. Shit all over Liverpool, United and Woolwich, but at least they have history. Look at the all time table, or the last 50 years, or even since the Premier League started. Fucking Villa have more points than City since 1992.
Ok, rant over.
They are so deluded, honestly it's pitiful. How do some of them still hold this belief that they are somehow on the same sort of level as us, or should be "competing with the likes of Everton and Spurs"? It's baffling. The gulf between the sides is so vast, and 6 wins in nearly 2 decades ain't gonna change thatHaving a peruse of sKUMB. Some of them would rather win tonight than against Palace at the weekend.
They want to turn us over AGAIN (their words).
I would just like to point out that in he 35 times we have played them since the turn of the millennium they have won precisely SIX games.
Two bob mugs.
Your guts are lying to you!I hope he isn't finished with us. I like him & think he gives us a different dimension. Hopefully my gut instinct is proved wrong. I will be a happy man.
It was only one goal in the last game between us.

This is perfect
