I know we shouldn't be getting carried away and take one game at a time but.....

Hull (h)
Sunderland (h)

win those two then:

50-50 chance of

Semi-final: Sheffield Utd / Sheffield Wednesday / Charlton

Final: Arsenal / Everton / Man City / Wigan

There is a long way to go but we really do have a very realistic chance of making the final

To knock out 2 x prem teams is a big ask though

I'm not sure we do have a realistic chance of making the final.

Not really that confident about beating Hull for a start.

Two struggling premiership teams who both think survival in the prem league is priority over the fa cup !

I seriously think we have a chance to get to wembley both in the semi's and the final, if the semi draw is kind to us.

F@ck me this rollercoaster that is Brighton and Hove Albion is a great ride, albeit frightening at times !

Did we not do similar in 83 against the expectations. We were struggling at the bottom of Div 1 so not much better than now.

Beating 2 premier league teams,albeit not great teams is no easy task.Who can know who we might get in the semi final,hard to make a case for us beating Arsenal/Man City but we can all dream.

We could beat Sheffield Wednesday in the semi final and then (Mackail-)Smith could score the winner against Manchester City in the final.

I'm already looking forward to our European adventure.

1983 Semis were:

Man Utd v Arsenal
Sheff Weds v Brighton

2014 could be:
Man City v Arsenal
Sheff Weds v Brighton

Almost the same!

One game at a time chaps, Hull will be tough but i doubt their travelling support will be that great tonight so the home crowd could be an advantage for us. Sunderland are a tough team on the road and beaten much better teams than us on their travels Like I said, one game at a time.

We would get into Europe even if we were to lose to City (or Arsenal) for that matter, in the final.
