At least for Huddersfield he should be starting.

It’s a shame we would never see a Ryan, Bruno, dunk, Duffy, Bernardo, bissouma, kayal, propper, izquierdo, March, andone team.

I would think it is a bonus that we wont see that team in the league but possibly against Millwall as that result doesnt really matter either way.

I would sooner we win tonight than against Millwall as I see the cup as a distraction as proved in 1983. Obviously to win both would be ideal but if I had a preference it would be any league game over the cup game.

We have a small game on 9th then nothing until 17th, Millwall, then nothing until 30th, Southampton. I think athletes should be able to do 4 games, including huddersfield, in a month AND they are all winnable.

I can't believe how blasé some fans (and the manager) are being about the Millwall game. Its to reach an FA Cup Semi-Final at Wembley ffs. Thats potentially ONE extra game to play this season. One. For a chance to reach the FA Cup Final for the second time in 118 years.

But nooooo. Lets not play an FA Cup semi-final, because it will all but RELEGATE us :facepalm:

Its only folk like BG prattling on like that, tbf. Embrace their opinion - more Wembley tickets to go round for those of us who very much care. After all they surely wouldn't want to come along and watch the very pointless thing that was consigning us to the Championship.

I don't think you understand football. If we get relegated, we will lose every semi-decent player in the squad, then despite shipping them all out go broke because of premier league contracts, and will be automatically relegated to league one, like Sunderland.

Not forgetting the Netflix series about how we were going to bounce straight back.

Good point, well made. All the more tickets for the rest of us who are actually bothered.

I think the way forward is not to participate in any football matches for fear of winning them and, in turn, having to participate in further football matches. I propose we give up football indefinitely giving us a clear advantage over all frequent participation football clubs.

So making an FA Cup semi-final = relegation. You're right, I clearly don't understand football, as I had absolutely NO idea they'd brought that rule in this season. Thats definitely news to me.

I also didn't realise that every team also collapses to the 3rd tier the following season. Must be news to the likes of West Brom.

I have trouble sometimes, too. But Icy was right. I don't agree with the people who feel like a) it is a choice between continued FA cup success or premier league survival b) relegation would be the end of our story.

Good to know. I find it quite astonishing how some people believe that us playing in an FA Cup semi-final would have any negative impact on our Premier League survival. How ? Unless we were unlucky enough to suffer multiple season-ending injuries in that game, but then that could happen in ANY game.

Being in the Premier League has addled some minds.
