Great day I would love to win the cup it would become our history how fantastic. Ok there would be a risk of getting relegated sometimes because of the distraction or extra injuries etc but if it did happen we just love a good playoff campaign soon enough. How about if we get related and then get beaten at the semi final stage,

Where? Does the ZDS cup or two runners up medals for the fa cup count? I don’t need to be a pot hunter to be a football fan but you are obviously different. Horses for courses.

WOW, just WOW. Planning for Weds? Might aswell give Spuds the game now. I wish to whole heartedly apologise for having a complete lack of faith in our team prior to the game. In my defence, I had tickets to go, BUT, family turned up(unannounced) so, duty called. I have 'flagilated' myself with vigour. As an aside, in the FA Cup this season is a law that any player getting TWO(2) yellow cards in the competition will receive a ONE(1) match ban, a bit like European competitions. So, Wilfs petulant yellow could cost in future rounds.
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

Are you saying that you support palace because we don't win trophies? Fair enough, nobody likes a glory hunter, but what's wrong with wanting to win an fa cup?

Certainly didn't see that result coming. Cup vs Relegation is a tough call. I know Portsmouth, Wigan and Wimbledon fans wouldn't trade their cup wins for a place in the premiership. I'd rather be trying to win it from a more solid position in the league. Clubs in the position Watford and Brighton are in should be going all out for it in my opinion. The longer we stay in the premiership and the more stable we are then the more chance we have of winning it. Let's just see how the draw goes and take it one game at a time.

IMHO we won't get relegated and we won't win the cup.

Fair enough, nobody likes a glory hunter, but what's wrong with wanting to win an fa cup? No, I’m saying I support Palace exactly the same whether or not we win a trophy. It sounds like you are running out of patience, maybe you should change your team?

However we have a chance to go deep in the cup for sure. If we can get a couple of wins in our next 3 games it will provide a much needed cushion giving us the opportunity to really go for it in the cup. Mind you the B team yesterday aren’t much weaker than the A team to be honest

This post has been merged from a topic called 'Warhammer!' by bexleydave Found it almost impossible not to shout this out when Roy was giving instructions to Benteke before he came on against spurs. Just out of interest (and without looking it up) how many of you get the reference? Not sure if it's found its way to the mainstream or not.
