FA Cup 3rd round - AFC Wimbledon (h)

[Hotspur75]

Surprised nobody has started a thread yet. This may be our year!

 

[90291Spur]

This thread will be guaranteed delicious with various theories on Poch and his desire to win trophies and whether trophies matter and what are the priorities of the club and how football has changed and what about the days when the players nipped to the pub at half time and jumpers for goalposts...

brick OMT by the way...

 

[Daisuk]

Now, that's breaking a lot of OMT rules at once, goddamn! 9-0 defeat, Vinnie Jones with all the goals.

Wembley.
Crazy Gang.
Meh, are we still in this "cup"?

 

[Lemonade Money]

Does this mean we get to win a game again?

[Jurgen the German]

Good draw. Means we can rest a few bodies after 2 games in 3 days.

The MK Dons?

 

[DubaiSpur]

This is it. This is our year. This is the year we make the final step.

Come on, lads. Come on, Poch. This is it. Let's win this. No excuses, no slacking - this one, we win.

Wish Pochettino will take the Cups more seriously. Playing at home is not an advantage for us this season. Teams like AFC Wimbledon will treat this game at Wembley like their Cup Final and step up their game against us.

 

[billyiddo]

I think we'll struggle in this game tbh and can see it being taken to a replay

Yeah by putting 11 men behind the ball

Any small team would step it up even if it was at the lane

And no other team gets to play the semi and final at 'home'

 

[Ade's folks are ok really]

Well we hardly made light work of Villa & Wycombe last season at the Lane did we!!

Is this an oblique reference to that season where we played them about 6 times in a row with Chris Perry in defence, seemed to draw 1-1 every time... Neil Sullivan, jumpers for goalposts, Joe Kinnear

It wasnt

But thanks for reminding me, i went to every one of those bloody games.

Had a similar run against Bolton one year around then too iirc

and that beautiful chip from Iversen, not at all in keeping with the rest of the match up

Hang about, we're in the SF and final already?
