I want us to win every cup game we're involved in, so tomorrow means a lot.

Agreed mate, I'd prefer to win a cup than stay in the Premier League, yet a cup match doesn't seem as important until later as they all count for nowt unless you win or at least get to Wembley. I think I've been conditioned by the media, the cup used to seem so special, maybe it's because we were shit then and didn't play the big boys every week.
Who youd expect to face in the next round...
Man utd
Swansea (maybe Blackburn like)
City
Cardiff or Reading.
WBA or maybe Brum
Spurs
Preston
Southampton
Chelsea
Derby
Liverpool
West Ham
Villa (maybe Bournemouth)
Stoke.
If we can keep this mental run of being drawn at home up (10 of last 11 draws isn't it?), and despite 1 win in the league at our place, Id fancy our chances at the Sol against the 8 opponents above, the other 8 would be quite a scrap.
Away from home all of these are different prospects altogether, Id write off say Swansea or Southampton away, maybe replays if were solid again.
Need to avoid the big guns then its the last 8, a shoot out for a game down Wembley again, again, preferably at home, we`d more than likely have to pull off a shock like last years league cup quarters/semis. Were capable.

Think it's a myth that people don't care about the cup anymore. It might have become less relevant to the top clubs now everything is driven by money but to sides outside the top division or two it is still massive, both financially and glory wise.
Given how badly negative we play all of them will be tough surely.

A lot to me, progressing in the cups, round per round is for me as important as it gets.
We have a cup match tomorrow and if you win youre through and thats all we should be thinking.
No giving this fucker a game or trying this - you play your strongest team to win.
Rather beat Burnley says it all
Playing a new system too. We need to bed it in
On a scale of 0-10, 10.
Would definitely take the drop to win the cup.
The PL is f***ing shit anyway
MODS: Ban this cretin forthwith. He is obviously on day release and should not be left unsupervised near a computer/laptop/phone
Bollox that, mind. I want to watch us to play week-in, week-out like Southampton do now (they will never win the Prem either). If we get the odd cup thrown in - MINT!The FA Cup is the biggest trophy SAFC can ever win. Therefore it is the biggest game of the season so far by a mile.
Some of the comments from the Children of the Premier League on here makes me wonder why they support SAFC at all. We won't ever win the league - so they are basically saying that all they want from supporting SAFC is to avoid relegation every season. I can only assume they have swallowed the Premier League hype.
I pity them.
I'm owlde, but I agree with you. Maybe because I'm an exile?I'd like to win and progress to the next round- but if we lost I wouldn't be too bothered. I'd rather win next week against Burnley tbh.
Maybe because i'm younger and don't have as much feeling for the FA Cup as other people.
