Pre Match Leicester v Manchester United FA Cup QF

[Jeff]

Sunday, 5PM, BBC 1

I’ll never fancy us against these, but if ever we had a chance to do them, this is it.

 

[Brown Nose]

It's about fecking time we got to a semi final at least. Since 1982, we've managed to go out 30 times in a row between the third and sixth rounds. That includes five losses in quarter finals.

I'm just saying to the footballing gods that it's about fecking time.

 

[Graz]

Not sure I'll ever see us get past an FA Cup Quarter Final, but let's give it a go.

Same team as today, surely? Shame we won't have Maddison back but keep it the same. There's goals in this game for sure

Why are there so many seasons missing?

Why are there so many seasons missing?

And why is the quarter final called the sixth round, until last season?

Shambles.

 

[Brown Nose]

Why are there so many seasons missing?

There are no seasons missing that I can see? All 30 results are showing.

 

[Blue Maniac]

All 30 since 1982, 39 years ago?

Same as today but with Maddison in for Perez please. Although if Perez can have a performance like today's I won't be complaining if we play the same team.

Oooh you've had a mare there, mate.

 

[parafox]

The fact that we have no reason not to go all out in both the team selection and effort gives me a lot of confidence for this match that I wouldn't otherwise have. I still think we'll probably lose but we have a great chance to take advantage of the situation. You can't help but look at that Bournemouth-Southampton fixture which should realistically be a bye to the final for us if we get through and we're drawn with the winner.

Have we ever lost to Bournemouth or Southampton? I don’t think so

If there is one club that should never see any cup game as a bye to the next round it's Leicester City.

Exactly. Unless we were playing someone really shit, like Wycombe, cos that would then be like a bye, wouldn’t it?

 

[Robin127]

Unless we were playing someone really shit, like Wycombe,

Or Harlow.

Left forever scars that one.

Would you rather lose to a team like wycombe in the quarter finals or lose another ****ing final to man city?
