Well played and good luck for the rest of the season.

Tatter, I've not seen this other thread and if you said 'well done' then thanks
In all honesty, the trouble was caused by Blues fans, just kids with their faces covered and hoodies. One or two shouting Zulu, a group came out the pub and from the subway and off it went. Crazy..

It looked like nothing more than handbags to be honest RBC. Every team has it's morons and both Wolves & Blues do seem to have more throw backs to the bad old days than most teams.

I saw a bit of trouble before the game but wasn't involve, saw a bit after the game as well but mainly kids with nothing better to do.
We were messed about by the old bill on the way back to the station and when we got back to brum I had missed my last train home but hey ho, good night all in all.
I went for a drink before the game in a pub by the station, think its called the Britannia but can't remember we then went into the moon under water (weatherspoons) but didn't get any bother.
There were not many wolves fans about to give us bother anyway, pretty poor from Wolves point of view, I mean our crowd was bad but it was better than yours and you are supposed to be the premiership team!

Yes bcfc, it was a poor turnout from us. Unfortunately this is getting to be the norm in the FA Cup for all clubs. The rot started with Man. U. not even entering one year and has spread ever since. As long as the FA are frightened to criticise the big clubs it won't get any better. Wolves and Blackpool are hauled up in front of the Beak for supposedly fielding a weakened side in the Prem but it seems they could put out the youth team in the Cup and nothing would be said.
You can't blame the fans then if they don't take it seriously.

I agree wolfgang, as you may recall I started a topic on here just before our first game asking if the magic of the cup had gone and from the state of the crowds over the two games it seems it has.
What the FA should do is give the winners of the FA cup the last champions league place and tell 4th in the league to go for a long run. That would bring the magic back, lets see Arsenal and the likes play their kids in the FA cup then!

I wouldn't worry about attendances, the St Ans game only got 14,000 and after that I wouldn't expect a large increase. Going out wasn't a disaster for Wolves, neither team had a full strength side and I'm sure you can now focus and succeed in/on staying in the PL. Please try to get lots of clean sheet so RJ gets fantasy football points too
