FA Cup Semi Final

[SNSUN]

Saints vs City 

Leeds vs Chelsea 

Is my prediction. Got to beat the best to be the best.

Right, time to get those balls in the microwave.

I tried that once but I couldn't close the door.

Should have been in the kitchen when you did it and not the lounge.

We won't though. City are just utterly ruthless in situations like that, their forward line is too dynamic. Get Leeds or Chelsea and hope to god someone else pulls out a miracle against them.

Quite a prospect if 1970 rules apply 

[LGTL]

Ideal: Saints v Leeds & Chelsea v City

Okay: Saints v Chelsea & City v Leeds

Bad : Saints v City & Chelsea v Leeds

 

I guess to win it we’ll probably have to beat City at some point though. Lovely to be involved!

[sockeye]

I can't help but feel it's going to be City!

But I'd like a Round 2 for the play-off final.

Probably have to meet City anyway even if we beat another team in the semi.

City have been quite poor at times this season but absolutely look like they have clicked now

Probably.

In 2004 we got the semi draw that we wanted!!

[Saint_clark]

Does the order the teams come out decide who is Saturday and who is Sunday?

No. TV decides

More than likely the cold balls will make sure they get the best chance of the final they want

It decides everything. Disgraceful. Basically City is on Saturday I expect

I can't see Arsenal winning the Champions League. It would be the icing on the cake if City managed to win the League over them... and I don't even hate Arsenal! I just like a good story and we'd be a huge part of it.

Why is it taking so bloody long??

2003* 

And that’s because we were one of the two premier league teams left in it.

The balls for every draw should really be sealed in one container for each round at the start of each season and opened live on TV.

They said it would been 15 mins after the game finished

Sure the Met would be delighted at that prospect too.

They also said "straight after the break".

Do you believe man has not landed on the moon?

No, I also am not really convinced they do anything with the balls but at least it would stop the accusations being made every round.

[markr27]

Live stream states 2035hrs as a start tine....

The delay is because they are trying to find out who city would prefer to play - us or Leeds.

Do you proof?

[John Boy Saint]

Which ball has the heating element under it 😜

You can’t call people poofs anymore

Starting now

[EssEffCee]

Think the order of the balls decide who will be 'home' team though with the first tie taking that for the final too. Might be relevant for us re the anniversary kit.

[SNSUN]

We have City

[John Boy Saint]

City 🙄

come on you Saints

[RedArmy]

Fuck sake 

[Colinjb]

Great. We have to do this the hard way.

Mrs B vs me....domestic incoming.

[SaintBobby]

Not ideal 

[Saint_clark]

Cunts

[whelk]

Fuck

[Turkish]

Course it is 🙄🙄🙄🙄

[hypochondriac]

Inevitable. Will just have to beat city in a cup competition again.

[bpsaint]

Fuck sake. Never mind, was nice while it lasted.

[Noodles34]

Fuck sake 

 

[Andy Hill]

They are beatable.

[LGTL]

Always going to happen. Balls were nicely placed in a row 😂

[RedArmy]

Could have put your house on those being the semi finals 

[Baird of the land]

Very annoying draw

[Lighthouse]

Can we get mad Nate on loan?

[Sheaf Saint]

Oh what a fucking surprise 🙄
