Who are we going to field a weakened team against so we can get the FA Cup out of the way asap

I Think I Would Want Another Swansea Game At The Liberty So Fans Like Myself Who Never Went Can Have The Chance Of Going.

Can't see that happening this year.

Harris is a big fan of cup runs.

One of the Big Six at home to get a sell out crowd. Fed up of our reserves losing to a small team!

What I want is for City to generally have a go in the FA Cup this season :bluebird:

Somewhere close we have not been for a whilst

Exeter away would be a good trip

Other than that Newport or Plymouth away would be ok

Totally agree. Sick of ducking out of the cup at the first hurdle.

Re: " FA CUP THIRD ROUND DRAW ON MONDAY / WHO DO YOU WANT? "

Sun Dec 01, 2019 6:34 pm

I don't mind who we play just want a side who turns up and plays the game like we care. Warnocks cup record was abysmal.

He hasn't actually said it but actions speak louder than words. He has got Millwall to the quarter finals of the cup twic when they were in league one once and they managed to beat three premier league clubs along the way. Slade and Warnock used to annoy me by fielding weak sides on both cup competitions which would see us get stuffed often by lower league opposition. Warnock was paticularly annoying as he would say how much he loved the FA cup before fielding a weak side bound to lose. With us having no chance of relegation and only an outside chance of the playoffs least try to give the cup a real go this season.

or the year we went up.? or last season..?

Would like any of the top 6 tbh but apart from them id quite like Bristol City (revenge) Swansea (revenge) Bristol Rovers, Newport County or Portsmouth.

Re: " FA CUP THIRD ROUND DRAW ON MONDAY / WHO DO YOU WANT? "

Hope it's anybody away

Re: " FA CUP THIRD ROUND DRAW ON MONDAY / WHO DO YOU WANT? "

Neil Harris took Millwall to semi final recently. Warnock just didn’t pick the right team.

I suspect and hope he’ll use it as preparation for the next league game which just happens to be swansea. So he should pick his best team; I hope he does.

Re: " FA CUP THIRD ROUND DRAW ON MONDAY / WHO DO YOU WANT? "

Sun Dec 01, 2019 10:36 pm

Shrewsbury, Oxford or Tranmere..away

Re: " FA CUP THIRD ROUND DRAW ON MONDAY / WHO DO YOU WANT? "

Sun Dec 01, 2019 11:50 pm

Don't mind who we draw, would like to be at home and us to field a full strength side.

Re: " FA CUP THIRD ROUND DRAW ON MONDAY / WHO DO YOU WANT? "

Mon Dec 02, 2019 6:52 am

It's bound to be Millwall!

Re: " FA CUP THIRD ROUND DRAW ON MONDAY / WHO DO YOU WANT? "

Mon Dec 02, 2019 9:34 am

Anyone we can beat and get a run going!

Re: " FA CUP THIRD ROUND DRAW ON MONDAY / WHO DO YOU WANT? "

Mon Dec 02, 2019 10:12 am

It always depends on our position in the table at the moment we don' t look like getting near auto promotion, so go for it, if perhaps we where top 5 then a few fringe players would be used and priority would be promotion.

Someone winnable at home.... So Man United :lol: then Ole to get sacked after it

right...

I read on from the NW dig. because it suggested it more reasonable if not involved at top or bottom.
personally I think we have more than an outside chance , and believe Harris wasn't born last night so will therefore do what most do.
