[Number 1]

FA Cup 3rd Round

Everton v Carlisle...

Depending on results, I think we could have won that one

Yes, if it had been the result Everton 0 Morecambe 2 but there again if it had been the result Everton 4 Morecambe 1, we'd have lost it.

then depending on results we could have beaten man utd at christie before going on to win the cup (depending on other results)

We couldn't have beaten Man Utd at Christie if we'd lost 4-1 to Everton, that's just silly!

[Bare bum]

Yeah, but Dave was depending on the 2-0 win and if we depend on 1-4 we could depend on Everton being thrown out for fielding an ineligable player so it's not as plain silly as you might imagine.

To be honest though I can't really depend on the tricky semi final against Spurs.

We'd have had a different number anyway, so we wouldn't have been drawn against Everton in all likelihood anyway.

Now you're being silly too because you are depending upon Everton not winning the appeal against the ineligible player on the basis that the paperwork was held up in the post due to the postal strike and we all know the probable outcome of that one... As for Mick's contribution, pah!

[campdave]

We'd have had a different number anyway, so we wouldn't have been drawn against Everton in all likelihood anyway.

But depending on other results, other number might have changed and we could have ended up with the same number.

Anyway, let's consign it to "what might have been" and look forward to tomorrow, when we might win, lose or draw, depending on the result.

Sunderland won the FA Cup in 1973.
They beat Notts County after a replay in the 3rd Round.
Notts County had only just scraped through against a dominant Lancaster City.
If only....

Yep and we would have had more scousers in our team than they have.

was that the last time anyone wrote "dominant" and "Lancaster City" in the same report?

Depending on results, they could have been above Morecambe by now.

NO! But they were referring to Lancaster City, Pennsylvania!

Funny you should say that.
October 2001, not long after 9/11.
The Dollies were on the way up.
Lancaster City v Burton Albion.
Tuesday(or Wednesday) at Giant Axe.
1600 crowd.
Dollies won 1-0, and then lost their way.

15 August 2009
Burton Albion v Morecambe
Score 5-2
I was there and the score flattered the home side.
But wtf.
