FA for me Geoff.
As good of a competition the Europa may shape up to be.. it’s not one of the trophies you particularly hope to win. The history of the FA cup, a day out at Wembley and a community shield against city. Also with the belief that we should walk before we can run in terms of obsessing over the Champions league. If we don’t qualify then so be it. |

Had a 180 over the past couple of days.
Although I've previously said I'd prefer the Europa over the FA Cup, at the beginning of the week I would've happily £#%&!ed off the Europa and taken the FA cup, just so we don't have to worry about the extra games while going for 4th. But with some of the teams that have been knocked out the Champions League, a decent run to a final and cup win against Barca, Athletico or Juve would be class. Would take that over an FA cup win I think. |

Emotionally: THE cup… but until the £#%&!wits that run the game in this country make it meaningful and reward the winners with 4th CL place instead of 4th PL place plodders, it will remain a sad shadow of its former self. #@&%!s should’ve at least have retained the towers. Unbelievable, how bad these morons are at running the domestic game, which, despite their absolute lack of knowledge or expertise, manages to strengthen, due to the endurance of the clubs and support of the fans.. and that’s before we get anywhere near the incompetent/bent refs and ever changing rules interpretations.
Head: Europa. Neither the uefa or cwc were maligned as second rate despite genuine runners-up and cup winners competing, yet a 4th/5th placed Chelsea or Liverpool can scrape a “champions of Europe” win by cruising the season with the sole aim of winning Europes rigged 2 leg version of the FA Cup. All brought about by the incentive of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ |
