Pre Match Leicester v Birmingham. FA Cup r5

[Skitzo]

I would think the team will be something like this

Ward

Justin Wes Evans Fuchs

Praet Hamza Madders/Youri

Gray/Albrighton Nacho Barnes​

 

[popillius]

Ward
Justin
Morgan
Evans
Fuchs
Gray
Praet
Choudhury
Albrighton
Iheanacho
Vardy

Something like that will do.

Is Bennett cuptied?

 

[Miles Away]

Full strength.

 

[Skitzo]

Is Bennett cuptied?

don't think so

 

[Joe_Fox]

The team should be whatever our full strength line up is. Nothing less. We should go for it big time.

 

[Blue Maniac]

Is Bennett cuptied?

No.

 

[Blue Maniac]

Hmm, Birmingham have never knocked us out of the FA Cup…

 

[SilverFox]

I’m sure I would feel differently on the day of the final if we made it there, but for now it just feels like a game we could do without. It isn’t a competition I have any interest in.

Wow

FA Cup not good enough for us any more, then?

Holy Jebus, modern football truly has gone to shit....

 

[H T B]

A cup we’ve never won
Our last final was 1969
Our last semi final 1982
No interest? WTF
Crazy

Unbelievable. Can't think of anything else I'd rather we win. Besides survival in the Premier it's the number one ambition every year for me.

Years and years of the club / manager not giving a **** about this cup has clearly rubbed off.

 

[City Fan]

Exactly. It’s hard to get excited or hopeful about it as a fan considering the disdain our club has shown the competition over the years.

 

[Ike O'Noclassed]

Always thought winning the F A Cup was what it was all about for City fans, since my "induction" in 1961. Now we've won the League, not so sure, but I'd like to be able to compare the feeling of winning both, and make a final decision then.

 

[fox58]

Brum draw today and are now unbeaten in 13 games

 

[mabrah]

Lord, I really hope we dick them. I need a morale boosting win.

I hadn't realised that all eight of the ties are being broadcast live in one way or another. Our game is on Facebook Watch.

Facebook Watch sounds like one of those vigilante nonce hunter groups.
