Personally I don't think we've got a prayer at West Brom, they're a decent Premiership side who can afford to concentrate on the Cup and we've lost a bit of confidence lately and have other ambitions. With four crucial league matches to come in January but not forgetting that 6,000 tickets have been sold, what sort of team should McClaren be putting out?

Totally agree, they are a solid side, and the cup is probably a realistic target for them with no other requirements than a mid-table finish. We all know Mac's approach to these games, and our momentum seems to have come to a halt.
Really hope I'm wrong, but expecting us to be a walk over

I expect the same. We really haven't got the resources available at the moment to compete. Shame really because a good cup run undoubtedly lifts morale.Originally Posted by AdiSalisbury

We're still both having a good season Anagram
Ive seen a few fans say that the Fa cup doesnt matter because it will affect their promotion push etc. Do any fans on here think this ?

Sad to say, because I remember the days when the FA Cup was genuinely exciting, but surely most fans will take promotion over a good cup run won't they?We're still both having a good season Anagram

Ohh in case you forgot, we did beat Notts Florist the other day
I can remember seasons where our league form has improved with a good Fa cup run, but then again this doesnt always happen and it can work against us as well.
I will be disappointed if we go out this weekend at the Blacky donkey lashers, BUT if we finish where we are now (or roughly mid table) I will be delighted with this season.

ramAnag. Have to with you we haven't a prayer scratching my head to pick 11starters Who for left back who for midfield a striker who is likely to have shot Will Ince Bent Russell Bryson even turn up Its going to be a very funny side Not looking forward to this one bit I will forecast the first corner or free kick we will concede and the tie will be over well before half time Just hope we get no more injuries

Admire your commitment mista. Having said we've got no chance, I'm such a crap pundit we'll probably win a 3-2 thriller with a Blackman hat trick. Remember where you heard it first.
