Just wondering what peoples thoughts are on this.

Personally, I hope that Harry rests players who are carrying knocks, and as many first teamers as possible and try out some of the fringe players. I don't think we will beat United at Old Trafford anyway, and I don't want any further injuries to happen.

Could not care less on the result, all I am interested is getting prepared for the Stoke match 3 days later which is a must win.

Usually love the cup runs, but we are already near enough into the Carling Cup Final, and we have a good opportunity in the UEFA so I would not be disappointed in dropping out of the FA cup in our current position.

Would like to see:

Ainwick
Gunter Dawson Rocha BAE
Bentley Ghaly Hudd Gio
Bent Campbell

I expect to be slated.......

couldn't give a crap, already been turned down for a ticket as we didnt take more than 4,000, and the league is far far more important.

Yeah it's Harry's cup but the premier league means more to us, sadly thats how times have changed but thats the situation we're in

I still don't get how people can fail to be up for this game, this is proper FA cup football. Even if we go at 'em with a load of youngsters, I can't wait.

Surely guys, It's the FA Cup?

I want us to win this as there's no guarantees we're going to win the Micky Mouse cup. We need to keep as many routes into Europe open as possible.

We're in the shit big time regarding the league, but I think we'll just manage to escape relegation. The confidence we could get from beating a weakened Man Utd in the FA Cup could be what turns our season around.

yeah, i got a couple of tickets from a mate last night but i'm gonna be sat in the mancs end to. still thinking about wearing my spurs shirt though. dunno if i'll just be able to sit there and be quiet if we score or go close. been to old trafford a few times and sat with the mancs as my dads a utd fan and it never feels threatening or like it could kick off so i reckon i'll be ok to stand u and sing a song or two!!
