FA Cup v Imps

[PhilM]

It is but I can't see us winning it, sorry to be negative.

If you're not in the cup then you certainly cannot win it; as long as you're still in, then you've got a chance and the further you go the greater the chance becomes.

Quite simple logic in my eyes! Don't get me wrong, I expect some changes (more than I'll be comfortable with) but we should be fielding a strong team on Saturday.

Come out of the blocks, high tempo and put a few past them early on and then everyone can lower the tempo. Those who need taking off can be removed shortly.

Have you let the club know mate so they can forfeit now and save their efforts for another day?

Keep it tight and hit them on the counter COYB.

I think we will win this game 3-1 myself

In all seriousness and without wanting to be antagonistic, we've given you a fair percentage already of tickets compared to the overall gate and usual precedent.

While I also have no real issue with fans attempting to sit in the home end either, I just hope that your fans are respectful as I am not sure how it will be perceived.

For example, I saw one of your fans had bought eight tickets in the Street End and the consensus from many fans on Tuesday was, "That won't end well".

I hope you all have a great day out, obviously not enjoying it too much of course, and that a certain level of respect is given by both sets of fans.

Fully agree ..3rd round FA Cup is not a time for knobs ..though sure a few drunks will be around as ever..I have been behind the lines several times and you need to use some nous ...I hope our lot do what they usually do and sing/dance/drum to the rafters and respect an old 'real' ground ..Z-cars and the whole heritage is important to real fans..we did that at Ipswich and Burnley and Arsenal and it produced goose-bumps ...remember when you used to get those before all the Prem TV money sanitised the top levels ?

Need to keep us in the cup. Rest Gomes. Otherwise play with best XI.
WE WILL LOSE IF WE TRY TO GO THROUGH WITH B-TEAM

Got to be honest they should not go in a home end. Stating on here that they will be in with home supporters is a disgrace. If trouble starts and it's a fella with his kids I'd help him and tell him how stupid he was coming in a home end but if it's groups of lads it won't bother me if they get hammered they should know better. What next send invites out for United or Chelsea to come in our home end. Wow remember friendly Millwall fans coming in the Street end in '72 and about 11 being stabbed. I don't want to go back to those days. I'm not condoning violence but Lincoln fans should know better. They have he 5500 tickets after all

I think people forget scenes like this from back in the day. If you sit in the home end you run a big risk of breaking constraint and ending up in a situation. And honestly, you deserve it.

Saw some video on the everton insta Account “EvertonAwayFromHome” a week ago, of some whopper everton fan in the home end at Burnley (potentially in hospitality slightly raised). Fella was spouting off when we were scoring. Drives me nuts that level of “the stewards will protect me”.

....tonights City win will make a difference. Honestly.

Ha ha they don't need my permission. Been doing that since 1995.

Would you rather we went out playing our reserves, or actually giving as good as we’ve got. I’m always optimistic about any cup run we’re in.

I think Silva will be judged on the league tbh. I'd love a cup run just don't think we are good enough to win it but happy to be proven wrong.

No offence but your logic makes no sense. You don't think we are good enough, so you suggest we should throw the competition.

You sir are an inspiration to us all.

 

[marsh]

Please just win. Players and fans need to be up for it

 

[billyblue80]

I'm not saying throw it!! I am saying if you look at our league form our first team looks totally run into the ground and needs a week off. So make some changes, the fringe players need games I still think we will go through.
