The Palace Fan 3,402 Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 The bookies anticipate Manchester City and Liverpool will be joining Chelsea and Crystal Palace in the semi finals of the FA Cup 2021/22. The best four teams in the Country in the semi finals should make a fantastic spectacle for everybody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Palace Fan 3,402 Posted March 20, 2022 Author Share Posted March 20, 2022 That draw is so harsh on Conor Gallagher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cicero 5,267 Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 Should just let him play. Much like Courtois for Atletico in 2014. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas 3,827 Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 And now we reach the least entertaining round of the competition. Really wish they would just bring back the neutral grounds for the semi final. Could easily have had Palace Chelsea at say, the Emirates or Spurs and City v Liverpool at Old Trafford or Villa Park. Least that way they can fuck about with the kick off times much as they like, it wouldn't affect the fans too much. Would really do something for the atmosphere too.

Surely not! with all our recent woes we must be the underdogs here... more prayers needed for this one mate, so if you could do the honours I would be grateful... Agree about Gallagher... not deemed quite good enough for our first team and then has a great season with Palace only to be forced out for a Cup Semi, should be allowed to play...

Lewisdenning22 0 Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Hi everyone new here, just wanna gage a reaction towards the upcoming Liverpool v City games in the league and the cup. I think Liverpool can pick up the 3 points within the league game on the 10th and lose out to City in the cup. Think it's a reach to say we're going to beat City twice 6 days apart.

I imagine it will be a late kick off too, about 5ish or something. So silly when they could easily play it closer to home. FA = Greedy bastards.

Whilst both clubs do have a large portion of supporters willing to attend living in the South East that will not be affected, it is absurd how many times this season you hear stories of football fans having to book hotels at short notice because of fixture movements to accommodate televised timeslots that do not correlate to any running modes of transport. We had it with Leeds earlier this season and Manchester City had it with us just last Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluebird Hewitt 1,282 Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Still think having the semi-finals at Wembley is a joke. When we got to the final in 2008, I went to the semi-final and final of the FA Cup. To me, the final lost its allure as I went to Wembley for the semi. It just didn't feel as big of an occasion to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluewolf 7,161 Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 I see Chelsea have decided to be a bunch of selfish fuckers and not allow Conner Gallagher to play for Palace in the semis.. I think the rules around players being able to play against their parent club should only apply in the league.. Feel sorry for him, he has had a great season and a Semi Final with a chance of getting to a Final does not swing around that often for some clubs.. Big fat thumbs down for that..
