I’ve found the backstory / narrative…

The same guy who stalks Charles Vernam has (allegedly) got grainy footage of Stacey Dooley (Luton) having her paso doble’d by Kai and Tommy Widdrington (Soton). Kevin from Grimsby (Scunthorpe) finds out, switches allegiance to Town and that’s the backstory required for the Mariners to waltz past Luton, do a jive-by on Southampton and some-other-twâtty-dance their way to Wembley.

Lovely stuff.

I’m booking my hotel for Wembley now. Are you.

If any lawyers are reading this my name is Willy Wacca and my counsel is Phil Day.

I saw a theory that a slightly lesser draw could give us the edge in the replay.

Given our run of shite draws it seems somehow fitting we’ve drawn the only side where it’ll mean more to Luton than us

Terrible record there although we last met in 1977.

I was there for the FA cup replay 0-0 before losing at Leicester.

Went on the old supporters bus.

We will still be complaining about the draw when we get to the Final.


I bet we get given the unlucky end again.

Quoted from Hagrid


Get off your high horse. Its a excrement draw - if we get too it-  miles away, on a weeknight, which means time off work, a half full stadium

We’ve had 5 rounds and not one tie has been glamorous for us.
And you’ll then probably allow Soccer Express to post on here advertising coaches only to cancel on the day as well


Not a happy camper?  

However you slice it, we have had the best cup run for a good while and made a few bob. Look at the positives.

It's pot luck who you get and where, same for everyone.

Stevenage won at Villa.

I was at Filbert Street for the 2nd replay (16 Jan 1978 )

There’s a lot of disrespect being shown to Southampton on here.

Don’t be so inSolent.

Everyone said Luton was awful and we'd get beat and not sell out and it was flipping ace.

But it is pretty excrement with it being midweek. If it was a Saturday I'd have got a cheap hotel and made a weekend of it. As it is I can't figure out how I could do it without two days off work and the kids out of school or risking our lives desperately trying to stay awake driving home straight after it.
