FACup Underdogs

[Brinscalleagle2]

Every season in the FA Cup semi finals there is always two underdogs and always one of them reaches the final. So which underdog will it be this year ?
I guess it will be either Palace or Forrest but who will it be.?

1990 springs to mind, the tv companies and the powers that be would’ve wanted a Liverpool v Man.Utd final, but we were the one underdog you talk about that got to the final.
I’ve always thought it was a shame Oldham couldn’t have put out United, they were close by taking them to a replay, a Palace v Oldham cup final would’ve been a real turn up.

Ah yes, the year that Liverpool actually wore 'special' shirts with F.A. Cup Finalists to the semi-final......... still, at least they got some wear out of them!

The shame of it for the scousers, beaten by a rag tag group of ex lower and non league players. 😎

I guess we are considered more underdog than Forest right now. But, we'll show 'em eh?!

I normally have The Times delivered, but got a Guardian today instead and it contains a good interview with Lacroix. I like the cut of his jib.
