Shoreham Street - Til Death Us Do Part
I am in the mindset now that anyone mid table downwards in the premiership we could have a good go at in the cup. It's not getting carried away when you look at who we have beat in the last 12 months in cup competitions really is it. There are a few that I wouldn't mind beating in the next round for personal reasons and this is who and why.
Ball No 5 - Crystal Palace
It might be touching 18 years ago however if you was there as I was then you probably still feel a bit of the pain that you felt on that day lingering inside you. It is still frustratingly crystal clear in my head how David Hopkin picked the ball up and curled a peach of a shot in from nothing. We had no time to respond and do anything about it. A part of me still feels now that had we won that game we would probably be an established premier league team now. Every game we play palace the feelings get stronger and I want to beat them. I would love to knock them out of the cup.
Ball No 6 - Possibly Liverpool
A few reasons really. The Premiership relegation, the cup semi final, Phil Thompson, for the dirty barstewards that decided to spit at us as with left Anfield and many in more recent years. Would love to bring them to the lane and give them a seeing too.
Ball No 18 - Possibly Burnley
Not just for beating us at Wembley but for the disgustingly vile Burnley fans on Wembley way afterwards. Mocking and having a pop at every given opportunity. Absolute vile cretins the were.
Ball No 25 - Possibly West Ham
I know we claimed a bit back when we beat them but I would quite happily take it again. In fact I would piss myself if we got em again and beat them again. Preferably at BDTBL this time and we can all get our own Michael Doyle masks and do the Cockney walk.
Those are my choices anyway for settling a personal score, of course there are a few more such as Arsenal but the above please.
