URZZZZZZZZ Call me a romantic but if we have to lose against Derby to beat Villa I'd take it! The FA Cup is a massive competition and the media coverage, revenue and memories generated from a cup semi final or dare I say final will last a lifetime!

Will it? Millwall's final appearance has pretty much been forgotten, as has Wycombe's semi final appearance.........

Forgotten? Not by Millwall fans!!!

Individually RFC fans will remember, but I was talking about the media in general.

And I would also rather beat Derby than Villa, but that is just me. The cup is a bonus and if we can win both then great, but Derby and the rest of the league games are more important in my opinion.

Semi final and relegated or exit at the QF stage and stay up? (obviously that is only hypothetical and semi final and staying up is a possibility and is the desired outcome)

I'm not arguing that this is or isn't more important to any of our forthcoming league games, I was just agreeing that the Simod Cup final was a bigger game than Sundays.

Would I prefer Semi-Final + Relegation or Quarter-Final and stay up?

Tough one to call to be honest. As you say, I don't think they're really that closely related so I don't see why we can't have both, but is a hypothetical choice I'm really quite undecided. A trip to the new Wembley (which is a fantastic stadium) would be briliant. Staying up is pretty important to the club but, we live for the highs and lows, and we'll cope with going down relatively well so I'm edging towards the Semi-Final, but only by about 51/49!

It's massive occassion, and I'd rather we won it than any of the individual league games left. That's the advantage of a league game, there is always another one (Spacey - unless it's the last of the season of course!) to go and win.

Royal Lady Brentford away was the biggest single game in this club's history IMHO.

Had we lost, I believe we would not have been in the championship for years, let alone in the premiership and may have imploded had Madejski thrown in the towel.


Jesus christ thats twice in a week i agree with you, in terms of how we have evolved as a club, and with hindsight, this was by far the biggest game.

Combined with Fulham at home. Who knows where we'd be if we'd won that game.

For me it was the Autoglass Trophy home game against Orient. 900 deranged fans, easy parking and good touches from Mass Sarr.
