    FA Cup Thread: Examples Of Media Writing Us Off

    Didn't we (as a fanbase) completely write off Maidstone United after they'd just knocked out a better team than us in the previous round? Are we now demanding everyone puts us on an even footing with Manchester United? Of course we're being written off.

    They're laughing at us already

    They may well be "fragile" but tbf they've just beaten and put 4 past Liverpool who we widely accepted we'd have no chance against.

    FA Cup Semi Final Draw

    Well, indeed, that is the point really... Clubs of our stature are now just playing to make the semi final now really.

    FA Cup Semi Final Draw

    The issue with the semi's being at Wembley is it completely undermines the final. Say we beat Leicester/Chelsea/Man CIty/whoever in the semi at Wembley..... the final is a bit of an anti-climax after that. regardless of what happens.

    FA Cup Semi Final Draw

    I understand that point.... but its probably no more or less realistic on paper than us beating Wolves. (on paper) Chelsea are a better side than Wolves (despite league position), and Leicester better than us.

    FA Cup Semi Final Draw

    Am i the only one who wants Leicester? Obviously if we were to lose to them at Wembley it'd be pretty devastating.... but surely Leicester at Wembley is a dream game after all those years of shit.

    Reading selling their training ground to Wycombe

    It is if you're an idiot. Someone posted something the other day with a list of teams we played in league one a few years ago. They are now all in non-league, and it was more than a handful. We should possibly remember where we've been next time we're crying about getting Wolves away in the Fa...

    Reading selling their training ground to Wycombe

    Football fans in being arrogant shocker. We were pretty respectful of other sides during our woes.... decent season last year and every other word on here is "tinpot"

    Running

    Absolutely grim training session with Godiva at the Univ Of Warwick track tonight in the wind and rain. 9 x 400mtr reps. Starting with 2mins rest, but rest period decreasing by 15 seconds each time (so between rep 8 & 9 there is only 15 seconds rest). First three reps with the longer rests...

    Leicester points deduction

    I know some Forest die-hards. They don't like Leicester one bit tbf. But the real beef is obviously with Derby.

    Running

    That must've been "there and back" to make 5 miles??? I like running Tamworth/Radford Road.... once you've got to the top of Corley Rocks (i'm coming from Bedworth side) and heading towards the city centre its flat/downhill nearly all the way into town

    Running

    I've probably mentioned that i'm training for the World Masters Uphill Mountain Champs in the Pyrenees in September. All arranged now, flying out 5 days before in an attempt to acclimatise a little prior to the race. Race is about 4 miles, but starts at approx the height of Ben Nevis, then...

    Do we have the best fans or the worst in football?

    Our fans aren't much different to most others. But thats hardly a high bar to judge against. The issue is we tell everyone that we're the "best fans in the league" then boo the team off after first home defeat for months. Its easy to be the "best in the league " when you're on a massive...

    QF Draw

    I'm failing to understand the lack of spectacle in Wolves away in quarter final of FA Cup tbh. Superb draw.

    QF Draw

    Wolves away would be a fantastic draw for an FA Cup quarter final. Local derby, hostile crowd. Fantastic. Brighton away would arguably be one of the poorer picks available (unless Southampton pull off a shock), but its all relative.... a European level side away is by no means "a shit draw"

    QF Draw

    Exactly. If you said 5 years ago we'd be in an FA Cup QF at home to Leicester in front of 30000 fans, having recently thraped them in the Championship, people would be sending for the men in white coats.

    QF Draw

    After the results last night, its looking like every team left in will be pretty mouth-watering (especially if Wolves beat Brighton) Newcastle Leicester Man City Chelsea/Leeds Forest/Manchester United Liverpool Wolves/Brighton There isn't a "poor" tie in there.
