What did Dr Dre build with the billions he made from his headphones?
Where did Jack Kerouac live?
Where did John, Paul, George and Ringo go to get their MBEs?
What did Brighton already do in December, meaning that whatever the result of this one, an 87th season will have gone by and they will have still failed to do the double over us?

With our current form last six games I am much more concerned about Cardiff than Palace or Millwall. 4 pts last six games is relegation form without help from others in the race for 18th
I would be.

Beat Palace and then go on to finish above them in the league with 3 or 4 more wins before the end of the season.
This would be much better and sustain my Albion Mojo at an almost all-time high level for months to come - in comparison to an expensive disappointment at Wembley.

Just looked at Wikipedia.

Were there really only 73,416 at their semi with Chelsea. That seems remarkably low to me!
I don't get all the beat Palace over everything else...
I know the history as I was there at the time, and I want us to beat them and finish above them but not at any cost. For me I can't see winning against Palace being better than a trip to Wembley for a semi final and maybe a final. The 1983 cup final was one of my highlights replay not as much but I would love for us to be in the final and have that wonderful feeling again but this time winning it! But even being finalists would top beating Palace especially as we have already beaten them this season. How wonderful it would be for us to win the FA Cup.
It would be great if we beat Palace in the league as well as beating Millwall and getting to the semi finals and maybe the final but there is always next year when maybe we don't have such a good cup run.
And wouldn't it be wonderful for the currently players/manager/chairman and all our younger supporters for us to be FA Cup winners.
It is not as though beating Palace is the difference between staying up or going down.

1983 and all that
I may be wrong but - lets not repeat the 1983 year - cup final and relegation !!!!!!

I don’t know about you, but I watched the Albion at Wembley last season.......
Even if you were just referring to prestige matches at Wembley, I feel a bit MEH about the semi-finals being there and don’t think they count, either. It’s a shame that Wembley is over-used for club matches now, diminishing the experience.
I’m still hoping we get to play there three times this season, mind you!
I agree that would be horrendous. I certainly don't want a repeat of that!!!
I still remember the pain of losing in the replay the awful train ride back, and being relegated the same year as if it was yesterday.
But beating Palace and the excitement of being in the cup final for me is a no brainer, Cup final every time! But if the choice was being in the cup final or being relegated then that would be a different matter!
Assuming we beat Millwall who would want Palace in a theoretical semi-final (or even final)? Police certainly wouldn't
I think the police would prefer that to Millwall v anyone in the semi-final actually.

Trounce Palace, thrash Millwall, secure safety with games to spare, make it to Wembley after trouncing Palace again, then upset all the odds by a Murray hat trick overcoming the favourites Citeh.
