Because the whole build up would be about 1989. If (when) any idiot makes a comment/ chant about it our whole fan base will be besmirched, no matter how many comments the other way are made. Even booing ‘you’ll never walk alone’ would be seen as disrespectful. At the very least it would further sharpen the focus on our role and allow others to sharpen their knives. In short, it would be more hassle than it would be worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanharper Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 For the best chance of progression I'd want the lowest placed team at home who are definitely through which I think is Northampton (Carlisle are lower but could still lose their replay to Cardiff). But I'd be selfishly happy with an away ground that I've never seen Wednesday play at before to add to my list which has been stuck on 109 for too long - so either Arsenal, Spurs, West Ham, Southampton, Northampton, Oxford or Portsmouth.

Build up would be no different to what it was in the 90s. Liverpool fans gripe if they have any will be at the cops not us, so who's bothered.

Ever the pessimist Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 (edited) Well, we’ll have to agree to disagree. Obviously things have changed with inquests etc since then. As has the advent of social media allowing idiots a platform which would be full of garbage in the build up to any potential fixture. I know we have played them at S6 many times since. I was there for most of them. Edited January 5, 2020 by Ever the pessimist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
