So you win your rounds, your replays, your extra times, your shootouts, your tired players get knocks and cards, and then you watch while one of the big boys wins the Cup. Every time.
We need to get safe in the league and move on with the rebuild. The first half showed what these guys can do. If they can do it in the league we can move up.
The FA Cup as it now is belongs in the days of leather balls and 20 quid a week. Best way to revive it would be to end replays and extra time and go straight to penalties.
Portsmouth and Wigan won it! And if it hadn't been Portsmouth it would have been US. The squad we have now is nowhere near good enough to stay in the EPL. We need at least half a dozen new players. With a majority preferably under 27 years old.
