Promotion.
Christ, what an easy question. Yet I’ve seen it asked more than enough times.
Yes watching city in a European tour would be incredible. I reckon we would sell these out too.FA Cup. A European tour is my City bucket list.
* both are not mutually exclusive
Yeah, fair comment.It wouldn’t just be winning the FA Cup either, it would be winning it as a championship side.
Would be a legendary achievement, a total one off.
Promotion, by comparison, would be ordinary.
There are indeed. Absolutely nuts that people would say promotion ahead of cup win isn't it.Some absolutely mental answers on here.

It wouldn’t be a one-off at all, West Ham did it in 1980 and Sunderland in 1973. I’m sure there were some before that, but that’s the two I remember.
Just because you don’t know about it doesn’t mean it didn’t happen.
That is true, but if a Championship team were suddenly to win it, I think it would get people believing in the magic of the cup again.Promotion. As great as it would be to win the FA Cup again it just doesn’t have the same prestige it used to have.
I would generally agree with you in that anything pre-Premier League era is wrongly discounted. A second division team winning the cup now simply emulates a second division club winning it pre ‘92.You clearly didn't get the memo that football before 1992 doesn't count!
Some absolutely mental answers on here.
Promotion please, Luton are making a fight of staying up and I think we'd be the same, there's a whole generation who've never seen us in the top flight and they deserve the chance to see us up against the best/richest clubs. I was there in 87 and it was a brilliant time but I think I'd like to see Robins complete the rebuild of the team and club.
Win the cup you get a bit of money and keep a cup for 1 year. Get promotion and it's worth 100m if you go straight back down.Genuinely think you’re insane if you say promotion over the cup, assuming one is 100% guaranteed. There are teams in the Prem who have existed for over 100 years and have never won the cup. Football is about winning trophies, not just getting to the Prem to make up the numbers for a few years (if we’re lucky). We’ll get back the Prem again eventually any way, we may never win another cup.
1 Promotion and 100m

England promoted in the Nations League over the City getting promotion AND winning the FA Cup without any shadow of a doubt.
It's more than £100m isn't it £130 seems to resonate ?1 Promotion and 100m
2 FA cup win
3 Finish off building the squad and Promotion next season.
4 Anything to do with England
Wouldn't even bother having No. 4 there1 Promotion and 100m
2 FA cup win
3 Finish off building the squad and Promotion next season.
4 Anything to do with England
No idea. Just seen 100m quoted frequently.It's more than £100m isn't it £130 seems to resonate ?
It’s not the 80s anymore. Relative minnows winning the FA Cup (Wigan, Portsmouth) does very little to change the trajectory of the club. Promotion to the Premier League is usually transformative.
Behave man. Don’t be so condescending. I’m not ignorant of the past. It’s just a different achievement now, chasm between the two divisions.
Ipswich win division 2 and then division 1 in the 60s. Does that mean what Leicester (boo) did wasn’t a one off?
Luton could stay up for 2-3 years then get relegated. Achieved nothing but a novelty first season with a load of publicity, but ultimately and inevitably they punch far above their weight for too long and no one bats an eyelid when they go down . Probably same for Brentford , Bournemouth, Burnley.Promotion please, Luton are making a fight of staying up and I think we'd be the same, there's a whole generation who've never seen us in the top flight and they deserve the chance to see us up against the best/richest clubs.

Thought that was a video by the stones for a minute.
They've seen us at win at Wembley twice in the last few years and miss out narrowly last season, if we'd won the play off final it would absolutely carry the same importance to them as winning the cup did to me, either way the correct answer is both.There's more than a generation who haven't seen us win a trophy too. We could go another 100 years without winning one.
