Port Said Red Posted December 5, 2021 Report Share Posted December 5, 2021 I don't want the Gas in the cup, what would be the point? We win = we're expected to, we get no credit. We lose = They get bragging rights for the next 20 years, why give them the chance? On the field we have to play a strong side, risking injuries and losing the chance to rest players. Off the field, the high probability of violence, in which the Gasheads will portray themselves as victims and the local media will lap up. Potential fines for the club etc, which would probably negate the benefits of the bigger gate. The fanzone would have to be suspended for the game. I see no upside to a FA Cup derby game. 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even worse if you played them at their place as away numbers would be reduced on police advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travel 3 miles away from the the town centre it's really quite nice that's why so many new families have moved here and bought new houses for thousands less than they can in neighbouring counties with good links to London, South West & the Midlands. Also it's not the small railway town it was renowned for with a population of 225,000 and growing fast.

You can bet that their thug of a manager would be reminding his cloggers that they can be hero’s amongst the gurning slag fewers just by putting Williams, James and/or Baker out of action for a few more months.
