Irritating that we couldn't get that one last favourable draw. Getting past the semi would have been a real mental barrier overcome. We would, as Chelsea are going to, smash Southampton.

Much harder game but one we've already won this season. I fancy us to beat anyone in the draw but it was the worst possible one for us. Jose is an old willy bastard

It’s better to get United rather than Southampton. If we drew Southampton, we’d likely think we’ve won already and come unstuck. When we’re up against it we come out firing.

I doubt saints fans gave a fuck who they got, as all very hard games for them.

Either way we would have to beat Chelsea or United or both. Rather have United than Chelsea in the semi. We can beat them, hopefully Harry will be back by then but if not we can still turn them over.

Yep. Chelsea are probably the better side on the day, so rather Harry has to face them once he’s back to full fitness and sharp.

Why is everyone going on about Spurs home advantage? What a load of bollox.. I think if we’d have been called out first, using the Home changing rooms, then that could be comfortable for us. But, we now have to go to the away rooms, and I thought no that could actually unsettle us. So there is no advantage, never really was, this is a different game.

There was no one in that draw we can’t beat. Apart from ourselves. And even then it’s been known to happen. Let’s have the fuckers.

Nothing to fear from Man Utd. However given our record over past 27 years in fa cup semis can’t help feel pessimistic.

Prepare for wall to wall Jose mind games in the media. “Spurs at home”/ “unfair advantage” etc. The miserable whinging prick.

When it comes to the FA Cup, I think the ball-pullers should be made to grab the balls in a Crystal Maze style Crystal dome...it would be funny to see people like Zola or Stevie G ducking and diving and scrambling around bleeding from the head from being teabagged multiple times. It would be carnage.

Shearer will be trying to elbow all of them.
