FA Cup 5th Round: Aston Villa v Leicester City

[bocadillo]

1974.

And when, if ever, in consecutive games?

 

[bocadillo]

And three, consecutively or otherwise?

And three, consecutively or otherwise?

Yep, my next question now we have another to play....

 

[bocadillo]

Yep, my next question now we have another to play....

I asked it first.
Na-na-ne-na-nah!

 

[Volpone]

...and misses a definite penalty.

....and slips over to let Vardy go through and score the winner.

 

[foxybru]

I asked it first.
Na-na-ne-na-nah!

You did, and so I took it upon myself to go through OFAF to answer your question...

I think the startling answer is that we have only once in 125 years beaten three top flight teams: in 1962/63

Ipswich (R4)
Leyton Orient (R5)
Liverpool (Semi-Final)

We have NEVER won three in consecutive rounds...

Have you learned nothing from supporting Leicester City?

I have. As I've stated before - I expect crushing disappointment and anything else is a bonus.

 

[Mawsley]

Have you learned nothing from supporting Leicester City?

Yep - Villa are utter dogshite this season.

 

[Motown Fox]

Yep - Villa are utter dogshite this season.

Even the Villa fan at our Offfice feels that too as they can't score goals.
We have agreed not to talk about the game until it's over. Hopefully I'll then be doing the talking.

 

[bocadillo]

We have NEVER won three in consecutive rounds...

We're ****ed.

 

[jb5000]

We've also never won the cup. It's an omen I tells ya.

 

[Brown Nose]

Yep - Villa are utter dogshite this season.

According to the table, they're better than us.

 

[jb5000]

Table, schmable

 

[Mawsley]

According to the table, they're better than us.

And was does the sofa think?

 

[Brown Nose]

And was does the sofa think?

It reckons Villa will win with a comfortable cushion.

 

[pork pie fox]

It reckons Villa will win with a comfortable cushion.

 

[Blue Maniac]

It reckons Villa will win with a comfortable cushion.

Excellent.

 

[Real Sharapova]

It reckons Villa will win with a comfortable cushion.

Not bad, BN, not bad at all.

 

[RHYDAL]

They'll probably throw it.

 

[Real Sharapova]

They'll probably throw it.

The cushion or the whole sofa?
