Sorry I just can't summon up any enthusiasm for it, I am a season ticket holder and I am not going. In our current predicament I would much rather we were playing a League game this weekend rather than falling more league places down the table.

I suppose if we were in a better state and had at least a chance of getting to the later stages I would be more interested, but my mind is already on the Peterboro game in midweek.
 

I don't care that much either. I'm happy it's on the telly so I can watch it though. I don't get to see enough games.
 
I'm gonna get mi sen down. Could prove a useful catalyst for morale and team bonding especially for the new lads. Worst case scenario is that we draw though, don't really need anotherfixture at this stage of the seseason.
 
Why? Its a welcome weekend away from League football imo. No pressure is on us, if we lose nobody moans, were not expected to win the game, so a win would be a bonus.
 
I love the FA Cup me..particularly that 3rd round weekend when you get to see a lot of sides you wouldn't normally..then there's always the odd upset ;)

I am going but have zero enthusiasm for it. If we had won a league game this year it would have been different

Aye, that'll be one to tell the Grandkids about.
" Eeeh, it seems like only yesterday when we scuffled the point against Peterborough that helped us narrowly avoid relegation to the Fourth Division in 2014"
"Isn't that the year we won the FA Cup Grandpapa?"
"I don't know and I don't care. Achieving mid-table mediocrity is all that matters to me"

At this point, we can only dream of mid table.
 
Miserable buggers on here. As if you won't be going mental if we win.
 
I'm really quite up for the cup. It's a welcomed break from the league and hopefully will create a fixture pile up...

The last part is a purely selfish one as I'm back in feb and there are no home games when I'm back. Looks like the youth cup game is on v Everton, but as I've paid for a season ticket and seen just one home game this season it would be quite nice to get a game rearranged for when I'm home
 
I want United to win every game. I think there is a good chance this game will be entertaining and there are new players on show.

I'm quite looking forward to it and it won't matter if we lose.

If we do go through, there's a good chance of a very big tie.

UTB
 
Even if for example we got knocked out in the quarter finals I'd consider that an achievement, just to make a statement that even though we're in a lowly league position the blades are alive n kicking and can mix it up with the big boys on the day UTB
 
I can't wait for tomorrow to be honest. I don't understand why people aren't getting at least a little upbeat for a good cup run. The league season has been terrible, why endure the shit if you're not going to take the chance to enjoy something positive?

Fulham aren't an exciting prospect, but we have a chance of beating a side two divisions higher for the second time this season.

I hope we get through and draw somebody like Liverpool, Chelsea etc. at The Lane. I bet people would find the enthusiasm to go then, even though we'd probably be on the end of a pasting.

Why do you get a season ticket if you live abroad? £300+ for one game is a bit expensive!! :D

If we beat Fulham then didn't win till the next round, I would literally go round windmilling people for getting excited about Liverpool at home :)

If we didn't win another league game until 5th round day, I'll be looking at what new grounds I can look forward to in League Two next year :(

I say that as if I haven't already done it!

I work a rotation and hoped the home games would work out better with my home leave. But also I go to the games with my mates and when I previously gave up my season ticket it took me years to get a seat near them again. Once I'm working back in Europe again I'll be back for most weekends and go to the games again
