6th Round Draw

Remember a progamme a year or so ago where Hunt said that he'd grown up with O'Shea, then something like, "But not much chance of me getting to play against him anytime soon."! C'mon Bees - Hunty wants to triple step-over his old mate!

:bound: :bound:
 

6th Round Draw

I've brought along a friend about eight times over the last four seasons - he's a Man U supporter from Somerset whose never been to Old Trafford. I'm waiting for his call, so that I can tell him it's too late to change his allegiance!

What a superb draw, but I agree with MA - it's a big word, is if. But what an incentive for the players - let's fill Griffin Park with PMA on the 1st!

Well if we double the prices for ALL fans (I'd be happy to pay £50 or more personally and I'm sure that most regular Bees fans won't mind paying double if they could guarantee a ticket), then that will certainly go some way to helping. It would be nice if we could just ask the ManUre fans to pay £100 each, but I'm sure that's not allowed by the FA!

In any case, though, we MUST be a live TV match if we get through, so that would certainly help!

it would really interest me the chances of playing at stanford bridge. the income we would get from that would be pure amasing

Northampton did that last season, sort of

Amazing draw, yet more reason to get through.

It's not the best draw for us, although Man U at home is something we can usually deal with if the lads are up for it. Just I can't see you beating us in the replay, especially if Redknapp is playing, and we go back to 4-4-2. I guess you can dream though ;)

You cannot switch grounds except on safety reasons. This was as a result of Farnborough switching their tie against Arsenal to Highbury two or three years back.

To be fair, Benj, not many could see us beating Bristol City in the first round, Luton in the third round or Hartlepool in the fourth round replay - or draw at St Mary's for that matter. I hope that Harry and your players share your complacency.

Whats the score with prices. Are we allowed to put them up without Manure's blessing?

Given that a day out at Old Trafford would have cost us each the best part of £50+, I'd have no objection to putting the prices up by a tenner each so we can make an extra £50k on the game.

We need to get past Southampton first but maybe we should start thinking about maximising revenue for this one.

Redknapp won't play you can ill afford to lose him for your relegation battle...and believe me if he's on the pitch then he is going to be subject to some heavy 50:50's
 

6th Round Draw

Brentford’s best Cup performance is reaching the Sixth Round. They have managed it four times: 1938, 1946, 1949 and 1989. In ’89 they lost 4-0 at Liverpool. Last season they were knocked out by non-League Telford United in Round 2.
versus
Manchester United have won The Cup a record 11 times and ten of those were post-war: 1909, 1948, 1963, 1977, 1983, 1985, 1990, 1994, 1996, 1999 and 2004. They hold the record for Final appearances (16) jointly with Arsenal. Their 23 semi-finals are just one behind Arsenal

How exciting is this :eek:

Well said, Ed. I thought it had gone very quiet from the Soton fans after a "well done" from a couple of them!
 

6th Round Draw

Surely a switch to Stamford Bridge has to be considered for financial reasons??

However personally I'd like to see us keep the game at GP if we beat the Saints!! :bound: :banana:
 

6th Round Draw

Will the club stop membership if we get through?? I'm not a member, ST holder or any other membership come to that!! Just sorting out BEES UNITED forms NOW!!!
Still hoping for ticket to replay yet. No luck with ST holders yet. All getting theirs for family etc. ANY 1 GOT SPARE REPLAY TICKET?? Getting in early!!
Just imagine 12,500 at GP. and only 2800 MAN UTD. Will the stewards chuck out the supporters in wrong areas. Doubt it! I wished we'd given Southampton just 500 Brook Road tickets for replay. Then we could've chucked 'em all out!!

Theres always the replay..... :)
 

6th Round Draw

Game should be at GP. Never anywhere else. Thats why we support the BEEEESSS. THATS IF WE GET THROUGH FIRST. Plus there's important league matches to come. We must get at least 4 points from these two games first. That'll keep us up there. But IF we do get through, games will mount up and will be a very difficult end of season for the players. To keep momentum will be hard. But i'm sure MA is more than up to it. Still can't get his reaction out of my head after the players took their applause!!

I don't think you are allowed to switch any more for financial reasons.

:confused: :confused:

We won't be allowed to switch it - and I doubt the players would want to either. Fortress Griffin Park!
 

6th Round Draw

yes ... so stop all talking b***ocks about switching ties you can't switch
and let's beat er... Hartlepool first, Sheffield Wednesday next and finally Southampton....

then we can come back to this thread, when the Bees take on the Red Devils for the first time in 30 years... :bound:

Looks a popular site :rolleyes: I guess Man Utd fans aren't as passionate as Brentford fans (not a surprise really).

BTW there is no way I'm registering on a Man Utd site just to view a thread, don't want to add prawn sandwich spam to the usual rolex, pharmacy, etc junk most people get through :nono:

Listen to the fried bread man. :sorted:

It is not OUR draw yet.

For all those who want the game switched to Stamford Bridge. If the game is switched the extra money goes into a pot which is split between all this season fa cup teams so no point in doing that. Lets show these bastards what its really about. Let them so real football for once.

There was a mistake with the draw and the Manchester United announcement has just been pulled from the official site following a stern telefax to the BFC directors from the FA.

We are away to Leicester............tickets were on sale yesterday and they've all gone.......... :(

wots it say??

From the FA's website
John Salako has shown his Brentford teammates that dreams really can come true after the Bees were drawn against Manchester United in Quarter Finals of The FA Cup.

The Bees have earned a home draw against United in the last eight, providing they can beat Southampton in a Fifth Round replay next week. And experienced winger Salako, 35, predicted it on TheFA.com three months ago!

In an exclusive interview in November he urged his teammates to 'dare to dream' as they prepared for a First Round replay against Bristol City. And he revealed his secret hope was to eventually draw Manchester United and knock them out!

It seemed impossible at the time, and no doubt one or two people were secretly chuckling at Salako's ambition. But after Brentford's outstanding performance at St Mary's on Saturday, when they came from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 with Premiership side Southampton, the Bees are on a high and believe anything is possible.

Under the guidance of impressive young manager Martin Allen they reached the Fifth Round by beating Bristol in that early encounter before also coming through difficult ties against Hinckley, Luton and Hartlepool.

The Southampton game at Griffin Park next week will be their fourth replay already in this year's competition, meaning Salako has played more matches for Brentford in this season's FA Cup then when he reached The Final for Crystal Palace in 1990!

On that occasion, of course, he was beaten in a replay by Manchester United - and that explains his dream scenario.

"To get through to the quarters and beat Manchester United, that would be something special wouldn't it?," he said.

"That would be real revenge! Every time I get near silverware Manchester United seem to ruin it, but maybe this is my one last chance. People will say we have no chance and they're probably right. But the great thing about The FA Cup is anything can happen.

"It's certainly a great incentive and makes the replay against Southampton even more special."

Salako does have one word of warning for his Brentford teammates, though. Because now they are daring to dream, he doesn't want them to get carried away.

"I know it will be on our minds but we have to forget about it for a while now," he insisted. "We have an important match against Hartlepool in the league on Tuesday and then Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday. Getting promotion to the Championship is still the most important thing for this club.

"Fortunately we have got a manager who won't allow the players to lose focus. He's very good at that and I know he'll make sure we keep on winning."

Interviews from the team coach - on a mobile! How much is that fine????
