Any of those options are better than the "Stay Up, Win FA Cup" scenario that is still hanging out there
Has to be option two. FA Cup winners get written into history. In 2030, nobody will give a crap that in 2016 they were a Premier League Team. They will still however, be banging on about winning the Cup (hopefully as CPFC2020 and in League One).
option 3 , do an Albion, lose the Cup Final preferably 4-0 and get RELEGATED
I'd take an fa cup win and relegation, Would be a day out to remember for the rest of my days.
Reckon West Ham will win the cup though, They look such a good side under Bilic.
Surely most of us are in this football fan thing for the moments of glory, not like smug Arsenal fans forever finishing fourth.
I choose the faded glory of the Cup and the white knuckle ride of the perennial league roller-coaster.
Did Portsmouth win the FA Cup recently then? What year was that?Exactly right. Just like Palace, PORTSMOUTH's financial cheating saw them survive at the top level far longer than they were due. I'd far rather their implosion had come a year later, and they'd had one more season living the lie, if in return, it meant they HADN'T got their hands on the FA Cup.
