Re: FA Cup 3rd round draw

Here's a question:
This season would you rather get promoted but lose to Peterborough OR miss out on promotion but get to the FA Cup final?

Easy, get promoted and watch some of the best footballers in the world at Elland Road next season.

Promotion all day long. It will be interesting to see what team Farke plays against Peterborough, some managers like to put strong teams out in the cup whereas some play their reserves. Wouldn’t mind a run in the cup for a change but not at the expense of injuries or fixture congestion, there are enough games in the championship which should be our priority.

Promotion, all day long, anyone who thinks we should play our best team just to get a run in the FA cup is plain bonkers.

We have a history of stumbling for a bit when we lose a cup game to a lower/lowly club ... A win maintains club confidence. I'd play for the win. Think it was last season (season before?) we won a cup game but bought on Rodrigo latish who got injured.. Lets not do that again

Promotion, but would still be nice to have a cup run longer than the usual 90 minutes 8-)

Mastermind on BBC2 starts at 7.30 and one contestants specialist subject is Leeds United. As the specialist subjects come first they should be done by 7.45 just in time to switch over.
