The only way to taint last year?

Nah we have our name on the trophy. No one can ever take it away from us.
Yeah but the Cup win is tainted now... every time we mention winning the FA Cup opposition fans will immediately remind us that 6 months later we were dumped out in the biggest cup upset of all time 😳

Aye but think how Man City fans must be feeling. It’s all very well putting 10 past Exeter but they couldn’t even beat a team that lost to Macclesfield

It's not a great chant though. "You got knocked out by Macclesfield, you got knocked out by Macclesfield". It's a bit of a mouthful. "You are s***, you are s***" would probably be easier.
 
This is a PR disaster for parish... one mention of FA cup and this is what comes to mind... not last year.

Parish milked the FA cup for all it's worth, understandably so.

That all stops now. We are out first time of trying, shattering an embaressing record.

We didn't show it enough respect. We could have fielded a way stronger line up.

Why disrespect the cup and the opposition with a new, untested system and line up?

We sell Eze, no real replacement. OK, that's fine.. but how was the squad bolstered ahead of a season to kick on and handle three cups, with the FA cup being 'ours' to defend...

Shocking.
 
I’d rather have lost to Macclesfield today than lose to Man City, United, Arsenal et al.

Yes it’s s***. It’s given them a moment akin to ours last year.

If you offered me the last 12 months I’d have taken them.
 
This topic is such rubbish, nothing will ever take away the lifetime high of what happened on 17/05/2025. I have been waiting for that day for 63 years and it finally came. Nothing, not even successive relegations like in 72/73 and 73/74 will ever take it away. Of course I don't want that, but spending a lifetime watching Palace is a rollercoaster so cherish the highs between the lows.

You’re right, but we’ve just done the one thing that could possibly taint it a bit, so people are entitled to discuss it

But you’re also right that nothing can take that day away, Wigan and Pompey fans have been to hell and back since their cup wins but they’re still fa cup winners and i bet they wouldn’t swap the memories of their wins for a few more run of the mill premier league seasons if it hadn’t gone tits up for them financially
