We have a chance. However slim, you never know.
Looking forward to seeing some quality football at RP. There will be goals, possibly lots, but who will get them we have to wait and see. It's been a terrific cup run and that no doubt will be celebrated at the final whistle, whatever the result.

Our chances of winning are in my view that of a man whose parachute fails to open surviving. It is so unlikely as to be impossible to calculate. And anyone who thinks otherwise is deluded.
But there is always a chance and at 5-30 I will be as deluded as everyone else.

70I've been excited since I got my ticket 8 days ago.
Head says Man City comfortable win but heart says County can do it. If City play with a front three (as they often do) then it could be easier for County as it then becomes man to man marking between their three and County's back three. I think the key could be starting fast and knocking City about "early-doors".
I see County are 33-1 to win. I might have a pound or two at those odds.
