Drawn at home to Mags in FA Cup

We’re red hot favourites undoubtedly. But I’d be amazed if Mowbray goes for “these are great and we’ve no chance” approach
He tells us weekly how we can't compete with PL parachute teams like Leicester and its hard to win the games

Nobody has said that -I hope we go in blood and thunder like the last derbies -but it’s unlike them for many reasons -money spent on players being the main one
 
If we get to the league cup final etc then this also won’t be ours, but by 6th / 7th Jan it is.
I’m perplexed by this lack of enthusiasm from SAFC, the SAFC of old would have shown a lot more fight than this.

People are just kidding themselves and playing it down.
 
Because this is no longer our rivals we are going up against, its a shameful shadow of what you once were, hopefully the club allow our banners/protests and you will see for yourself just what you and your club have become

Like any of us care. Have as many banners as you want ( you won’t as you’re not that bothered ) it makes no odds to us.
 
I’m just going for the atmosphere. Love to beat them on the pitch but hope we beat them in the stands. Show KLD why he needs to get us up there quickly.
 
For me, it’s a derby so it’s no bigger or smaller than any previous ones.
I’m genuinely surprised your playing it down despite being so far apart.
Can only play in our favour if yous are writing it off I suppose.
As if a few people on her writing it off will have an influence 🤣🤣

It’s a derby and both sides will go after it, expectations on us are different. You are the state funded richest club in the world on the crest of a wave, we’ve only just returned to the championship after 4 seasons in league 1.

Bit different coming here as massive overwhelming favourites than going to Paris as plucky underdogs.

We’ll be up for it no danger but given the outlay on your team we will need you to be off your game for us to win.
 
oh 100% I hope the players give it everything and if it does go wrong the fans realise these are young lads up against a state owned club and dont get on their backs,
No way will the crowd criticize-everyone knows the difference now to when we last played them $$
