My 6-0 prediction looks a bit ludicrous now!  They are obviously focussing on the league, where they are looking really good for a promotion place, they don't need a cup run, look at the attendance. On the other hand, Wednesday could use a good cup run as they have little else going on. However, at this moment in time, the only South Yorkshire side to be 'definitely' through to the next round is Donny. So sad.

Promotion to the PL brings in around £100M. Not sad - do the maths. Edited January 6, 2019 by Guest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

If that's the case why throw Billy Sharp on for the last 10 risking injury in a match that's only going to win you 3 million?

My "so sad" comment was about  the sorry representation of south Yorkshire teams in the 4th round if Wednesday lose their replay. I wasn't feeling sad for United in particular, I am a Wednesdayite, after all, lol, albeit a non-combatative and reasonable minded one.

If Donny Rovers were to be the only South Yorkshire team still in the cup at the 4th round, I wonder if that has ever happened before in this or any other universe, Good luck to Doncaster Rovers by the way.
