FA Cup 3rd Round - Who do we want?

  1. The undeniable truth

    The undeniable truth First Team Captain

    I think the fact that you have been a fan for 10 years explains your view. However for those who have been fans for longer the rivalry is bitter. In 2 seasons' time we may well be back in the same league and you can experience it too. The rivalry with Muff will last another season or two and then disappear. Southend and Brentford were our bitter rivals for a season or two back in the late 70s, now they are both just another club.

    Can't understand why anyone would want any other team. Our season is going to be dull as anything, there'll be a few bright spots amongst weeks of mediocrity. We won't win anything and we won't get relegated.

    If we draw these arseholes tonight, will be the best part of a month of build up that will at least give a bit of interest to the season. And if people don't want to play them when we are so much better than them, when do they want to play them?

    Finally, it would be an excellent opportunity to boo Gray when he rattles in a hat trick and then does that thing where he refuses to celebrate.

    Never!! If they went out of business tomorrow I wouldn't care. Don't want those scumbags anywhere near our lovely ground!

    WillisWasTheWorst Its making less grammar mistake's thats important

    There’s a thought. Suppose we played L*t*n and Gray scored. Would he celebrate? How would we react if he didn’t? Or if he did?

    If he's good enough to score against Luton, we all know he'd swear and cup his ears at our fans.

    He's a **** like that.

    I wouldn’t give a flying **** if he ripped his shirt off and revealed a huge tattoo of him in a L*ton shirt p1ssing on a Watford shirt.

    He’s scored the goal. We’ve won the game. That’s the most important thing. Gray can be as disrespectful as he wants after that - folk hero for life.

    Damn this thread has genuinely got me excited that we can get them.

    Cue us getting Sheffield United away or some other completely non-plussed affair.

    Would be incredible.

    "Eric Morecambe, Tommy Robinson, Nick Owen, Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, Charles Bronson, most of the EDL, Nadiya from Bake Off, Tommy Robinson again, Monty Panesar... can you hear us? Your boys took a hell of a beating tonight"

    If we don’t draw them, which referee am I blaming?

    Emma Sanders writing it up on the BBC website.

    Lucky omen?

    Slightly oddly, Emma has a brief explanation of the main teams next to the ball numbers:

    Manchester City (Premier League champions) - 23

    Manchester United (12-time winners) - 24

    The Beeb must be targeting people who live under a rock.

    Did GFZ give QSF language lessons?

    We were eclipsed as the top Ford by Brentford in the mid 30s & Oxford in the 80s but you hear much about those these days.

    That's a tasty one...

    Think Emma must be channeling Partridge.

    Can I be the first to say... Booo!

    When did we last play a non-league team?

    Great draw....what's the allocation? 15%?

    Shall we draw straws for the 5 tickets?

    Can’t argue really - we wanted a non-league team in L*ton and we got a non-league team.

    Woking away - well let's hope it's not a big giant killer !

    Love it. That's payback for years of dull draws. Hopefully there will be tickets down to Cat B but if not surely a fair chance it'll be on tv.
