Paint pot trophy draw

[Reg Smeeton]

am i the only one who doesn't give a shit about this wanky piss pot trophy?
we couldn't even make a decent atmosphere with 30,000 of us at wembley last time.
the want to get there in this shitty comp aint there for me anymore

Certainly I'm in no rush to go back to Wembley....but if we did get there and generate some interest and income then surely that has to be a good thing.

[Rustle]

Another home draw so im happy with that, I would go back to wembley if we got there and like reg said it can only be a good thing for the club.

[Spy]

Yeah I know, but I don't think we should pretend that there'll suddenly be a wonderful atmosphere just because it's at a different ground.

It is a much better ground tho.

[Iffy's Onion Bhaji]

Whilst I agree about how shit Wembley was and how I don't want to go back there a decent run in this comp is by no means no bad thing. As Si said it can help with league form as well. Saints struggled at the start of last season then got a run going in this and started winning games left right and centre in the league as well. It just gives everyone at the club a lift and could be what we need really as long as we don't lose focus on winning league games as well.

Pleased with this draw as it's a home game and Brentford have been pretty poor thus far. In saying that they always seem to beat us in cup competitions.

Can't say i'm looking forward to another game at Wembley if like in May, we don't bother turning up, fans and players.

[Peter Venkman]

Another winnable tie. Good stuff.

Can't believe people are saying that a match at Wembley is no big deal to them.....granted the atmosphere was shit v Millwall................so lets get to this final get our heads together and make sure our next appearance there is more memorable,good draw and would love to make the final.

Agree about making it a better day out if we get there again some time soon. I don't want to resurrect this summer's debate, but there are things that can be done to encourage a better atmosphere and hopefully the board would recognise that and take action.

Designated 'singing areas' (where people who shout "sit down" and/or "be quiet" are automatically entitled to a free escort from the stadium) would be a good start

Good draw. Looking forward to the game.

Our league form is very patchy and this is exactly the sort of game that keeps the season going.

Chances are you will get a 2 legged southern final against a local rival, so its always going to be a lively game.

Wembley was crap last time. But if we go next time we'll probably take less fans. The hardcore  fans will be able to organise themselves a bit better and create a decent atmosphere. I guess the ticket prices for the JPT final are also a lot more reasonable?

We need to get out of this attitude that we dont want to go back to Wembley because it was rubbish, we were rubbish more like.

Actually Brentford have only ever beaten us once and that on pens, in any cup competition.

Didn't we lose to them in the Anglo-Italian Cup in about '92?

Quite possibly...I don't think it counts though, how can you play an English team in the Anglo-Italian Cup
