Just got a ticket, can’t wait to go to london for the first time, do they need to see my passport before i get on the train?
Yup. Plus I'm getting worryingly confident, and I'd rather have that pulled down a bit so I won't suffer crushing disappointment!It's not being negative, it's just reality. They are a very good side and very difficult to beat. To only have lost 8 of 46 Championship games all season says that quite clearly.
Of course we can beat them, but they are rightly favourites.
There are a whole generation of people who don’t care about the FA Cup and don’t understand how big it was then. It’s very understandable for them to say that this is bigger than the FA Cup
I would not swap that day for a win on Saturday myself but it’s very over the top to say this is a low and run down it’s importance when it’s by a massive distance the biggest match a load of our supporters have and maybe will ever experience.

I dunno, Man City are already aiming to be Championship play-off finalists in a couple of years to complete Guardiola's tenure at the club, and instill them as true greats in history.If we get to the FA Cup final anytime soon the tune being sung here would change fast.

The people who got to experience our FA Cup win got to experience a lot of our time in the top division. If you were born in the mid-late 90s you’ve only ever really known the mostly gloomy era outside of it.
I was born in 96, first game was 2002.

Lied about Middlesbrough.The league table doesn’t lie though, they’re the favourites and we will need to be at our very best.
yes and for everyone who started at the end of the 90s and who grew up on Sky, glitz and glamour on tv while working watching us struggle every year (that must be a big proportion of our supporters these days) this is without doubt the biggest match of their lives and of course it’s going to be bigger than the fa cup. I don’t see the point in trying to lecture them that they are wrong to be more excited for this than they are are stories of what happened decades ago

Weather looks warm and sunny for Saturday atm, so you wonder if this gives either team any sort of edge. Certainly a team that press high like Luton expend a lot of energy doing so. If we can weather the early storm you'd perhaps fancy us if we stay in the game.
Probably will make no difference, just over-thinking everything...
Fully agree with this bolded bit.
For fans of a certain age of course 87 was massive and bigger than this. For some younger fans of course this is the biggest game in their lifetime.
They are not mutually exclusive.
I fear for Wilson near the end of the game if we are winningThere's going to be a lot of players getting cramp.
Particularly by the team that is winning late on!
Over 46 games they were clearly better
full on case of jelly legs??? Luton do have some very big lads, maybe they'll start to run out of steam about 70 mins, hopefully we will be ahead by thenI fear for Wilson near the end of the game if we are winning
The 87 Cup final, Tottenham were favourites and man for man were the better side but when it's a one off game anything can happen.

Our younger supporters have had a great time. They are about to have their 3rd visit to Wembley in 6 years. That's more than the previous 134 years. We had to wait 50 years for a top 6 finish. Not only has the last 6 years given us a few top 6 finishes it has also given us a 1stThe people who got to experience our FA Cup win got to experience a lot of our time in the top division.

No it didn't, over 46 games they were better than us.
We still beat them over a 2 legged semi final though.

If we get promoted they will then have to get used to big defeats at times. A good result at times will be only losing to a single goal. Then they will start to understand why the cup win was massive. A relegation battle nearly every season isn't fun.
Depends how old they areThe counterbalance to that is also 3 relegations and relegation battles in the Championship and League 1 plus being thrashed at home by the likes of Yeovil. Fighting to stay up in the top flight is preferable, at least in my view
Style?If we win I would love to see the open top bus brought out. Celebrate in style

To me they're about the same. An FA Cup win when not expected against a promotion to the Prem when not expected.

he was the same before the semi - I kept on telling him to get in his boxYou continue with your on going negativity, would you swap squads then ?
