Which would you choose?

On that same rational basis the former (FA cup win) could happen next year so it’s a nil outcome

Ah but for the fact that guaranteed promotion gets us in the championship and I've watched Derby for years there, we might get promoted within a year again but its a probable. Plus we are more than likely to achieve that anyway within a short timescale.

A guaranteed FA Cup win is an actual trophy to saviour, which is very unlikely to happen in reality. So its hardly a nil outcome, as promotion is a definite possibility within the next couple of years, FA Cup win extremely unlikely.

We’ll have to agree to disagree, or at least I will
