Best Long-shot Bets For This Years F.A Cup

Big Jono · Posted: Mon Jul 18, 2005 4:03 am

Who do you think could surprise everyone and win the cup this year?

Only teams paying good odds should be included. i.e Man U, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool not.

My pick- Spurs! - They are long overdue for a bit of silverware and if the draw works out ok for us we have the talent and class to do well.

Whats your pic?

To be honest, I think it will be one of the 4 above mentioned that will do it, but if I had to pick outside of that in a chance to get some money back from my bet, then I suppose I would put money on Middlesbrough or Spurs.

i think Spurs would be a good choice for an outside chance along with maybe Newcastle .

Alan Shearer will raise the Holy Grail!

Newcastle have no chance under Souness in my opinion. Not this season anyway. They are in a rebuilding process themselves.

Thanks!

I was only trying to dream!

Dream now dashed!

LOL

One of the teams mentioned above will win I think. Best outsiders are boro and Spurs I think

Boro would be my favourite...or Everton maybe?

Spurs? Please...winning trophies isn't really your thing.

lmao, no hatred towards Spurs being shown there then I see ?? Razz

I would also love to see Alan Shearer lift the cup , on which would be his final game . . . i no i'm dreaming too. lol

well Caz if Arsenal do not regain the Fa Cup then i hope Newcastle win as it would be a nice way for Alan Shearer to bow out , he deserves to win something after all he has done for Newcastle over the years.

Alan Shearer is a true professional, and someone that all young English strikers should try and follow.

I think Spurs have been impressive pre season, and still think they could be outsiders for the cup.

a Boro VS Newcastle FA Cup final would be nice Very Happy

My dream... A Spurs vs Arsenal FA Cup final.

With Spurs completely humiliating Wengers men 5-0! Smile

There will be no FA Cup this season and the Cup will be presented to Newcastle for Trying so hard!

Everyone seems to forget Bolton ....
They was in the coca cola cup final 2 years ago and this year Borgetti will win the cup for them.
I think you get a good pay-back as well (if Im right)

conner99 · Posted: Thu Aug 18, 2005 1:57 pm

who are Bolton ? . Laughing

No sorry , not quite good enough to actually win it .

For a wild card, i would throw in West Ham, they normally have a good run and end up in the last 16 , if they hit the last 8, they either get to the final or the team that beats them does, yes i know..... every rule has its exceptions [/b]
