I honestly think that Q/F loss to Sheffield Utd hurt me more than any other loss in my near 50 years following City, still rankles when I think about it
Yes I felt down for ages after that. We had a really good team at the time and should have beaten them. That along with the West Ham semi final loss are probably my two worst nights following CityI said this and got called out for it on here but that result hurt me more than any other in football, like you it still pains me to think about it.

Queued for 9 hrs for the Cup game up at Everton. Got to the front of the queue only to be told the tickets have now sold out.
Star draw it is !!!!!!FA Cup round 5 draw
Dangerous to "count our chickens" before reply result.
Here is my take on draw possibilities.
So many people say
S#×t draw, so using that as yardstick.
Key * S#xt draw
** Very S#xt draw

Totally prepared that many people will disagree with this!!!!
I got the second part of my wish fulfilled. Now let’s get the first part done!Hope we can finally beat Sheff Wed and get a home tie vs Maidstone in the next round.
Thank you very muchHome draw please.......... wouldn't mind Maidstone (would win, plus guaranteed TV) or winners of Blackburn/Wrexham.
Blackburn replay is the 7th so ours will be the 6th or 7th.
It’s the sole source of my hatred of Sheffield United.I honestly think that Q/F loss to Sheffield Utd hurt me more than any other loss in my near 50 years following City, still rankles when I think about it
Like itThey'd be great TV coverage, possible full house and a chance to get to the 6th round
My parents made me go to bed early that night on the basis they’d write the result on paper and put it next to my bed. Cried a fair bit in the morning!I honestly think that Q/F loss to Sheffield Utd hurt me more than any other loss in my near 50 years following City, still rankles when I think about it

You should probably have a read of this.Went to that and got a ticket for the Kop where the Liverpool fans were I witnessed hundreds of scousers just sitting opposite the turnstiles obviously without tickets and the police opened up the gates rather than having them roaming the streets and they piled in, a regular occurrence at their many big games, a number of years later we all know what happened at Hillsborough, which to this day they deny.
No.Any idea yet what the ticket prices are going to be for the replay?
I’d imagine similar to Oxford, think they were 15 quid.Any idea yet what the ticket prices are going to be for the replay?
A hi ho one, maybe?So there is a silver lining to losing all those Saturday games
Totally agree - was a killer, we had it in our hands. Convinced we made the final at very least also. Like you it still rankles today - that Moldovan header and Roland mis controlling ball with 30 seconds left.I said this and got called out for it on here but that result hurt me more than any other in football, like you it still pains me to think about it.
As soon as it went to penalties, the writing was on the wall.Totally agree - was a killer, we had it in our hands. Convinced we made the final at very least also. Like you it still rankles today - that Moldovan header and Roland mis controlling ball with 30 seconds left.

Extra timePenalties is the only scenario where I could possibly see Wednesday beating us, probably after they have parked the bus and our forwards misfire.
Is the replay straight to penalties after 90 minutes, or is there extra time first?
