poolies v Salford

[onewayup]

Next round of f.a cup

[quakerray]

hope its on tv, we all know pools hate the cameras

[Darlo_Pete]

I'd think there is a fair chance of it being picked for TV. I don't fancy poolies chances, Moore to get the sack when they get knocked out.

[Mr_Tibbs]

So, who do we all want to win?

[AndyPark]

I'd prefer Hartlepool to get smashed.

[super_les_mcjannet]

Quite amusing reading the Poolie message board, half of them shitting themselves at the thought of playing Salford.

Personally not bothered who wins, not really relevant for my clubs development/progression. I can't see the BBC putting the match on a Friday night (although rating wise it would be a winner) as they have already had a little backlash at the Man Utd/ex Man Utd exposure they have given already this year.

hope it's not a draw or our game v Salford will be off

[AndyPark]

Again

[Darlo_Pete]

hope it's not a draw or our game v Salford will be off

I wouldn't be bothered if our game was called off, to make way for a replay, Hopefully Salford would win that replay.

[AndyPark]

Are you for real? I'd rather we played the game instead of having backlogs.

[Quakers1883]

If only they could both lose

[quakersam]

It might be off anyway if this game is chosen to be on the Sunday or Monday night

[DarloPeGi]

So, who do we all want to win?

Can't believe this question !

Hartlepool United are our rivals, always have been, always will be.....

Salford are just a minor irritation at the moment..... I hope they stuff Pools.

This. When the Co92 get bored and leave, Salford will feck off back into obscurity while Darlo return to the Football League.

In an ideal world

Come on Salford. I'm not sure what some people's obsession with Salford is. Yes, they were our title rivals last season, and yes there was a bit of an issue at the away game, but that isn't enough to turn them into massive rivals! They probably have a decent chance, although the BBCs love in if they win would be nauseating.

[Sussex07]

I'd prefer Hartlepool to get smashed.

And who could forget the laughter of last season ,Andy.

[ArmchairDiehard]

Come on Salford!

[m62exile]

I hope Salford hammer them.

[joejaques]

Whose backlog would be worse, Andy? Salford already have three extra games to play. Bring on the replay.

[AndyPark]

Still rather play our games instead of twiddling our thumbs.

[Darlo Since 68]

We play them on the 15th Dec.

Cup weekend is on the 4th - 7th December. The cup game will have no impact on our league game, unless there is a reply.

[MKDarlo]

As both sides cant be thrown out of the cup for wankyness i will say:

Come on Salford ( after a replay!)

[PierremontQuaker03]

Surely its favouritism if Salford are on again. Also Hartlepool were on live TV last year.

However, forget all that I hope it is on and Hartlepool get stuffed.

[princes town]

According to the BBC, Salford are our ARCH rivals. A misuse of the word arch in my opinion and not based on any historical legacy.

Oh come on now..........what sort of team gets thrown out of cup competitions?

[Darlogramps]

According to the BBC, Salford are our ARCH rivals. A misuse of the word arch in my opinion and not based on any historical legacy.

In fairness, it was meant in the context of last season, when we were their main title rivals.

"Arch-rivals" was a bit strong I agree, but at no point did the documentary make out it was a historic rivalry.

Best scenario I can come up with is for Salford to thrash the hangers only to get booted out for fielding an ineligible player. Wanna see the Poolies get beat most of all - just rather it wasn't at the expense of Salford progressing... and the ensuing media love-in. If they won but then got booted out (that happened to Bury once) that would be ideal as far as I'm concerned as it would be pet lips all round in Salford plus there'd be chance to see the Poolies get thrashed by another non-league club in the next round

[Quakerz]

I'm not bothered about Salford in any way shape or form - they will do what they do over the next few years and there's nothing we can do about it. They'll be the next Fleetwood/Crawley/Forest Green, let them get on with it. They're just too insignificant to get worked up about or to have a rivalry with.

So as Salford mean less than nowt to me, I really hope that they humiliate and smash the kitten stamping, heron crossbowing, hamster microwaving, chimp choking fuckwits.

Having considered the very eloquent and persuasive argument offered by Mr Quakerz I feel moved to say that I am in agreement and I commend his statement to the house.
