That time again with my virtual journey to the finals of the FA Cup and the Welsh Cup. In the FA Cup, the much-unloved MK Dons had a trip to Charlton. Well both are in the hat for the third round on Monday after playing out a goalless draw.
The next round is the biggy as it’s the third round means the arrival of the Premiership and Championship teams including my club Cardiff City who themselves will fancy a big name draw preferably at home.
There is money to be made for the right draw if you draw Manchester United or Arsenal with a home tie giving you record gate money and even if you are away. The chance of TV money if the game is chosen for live TV and there is the prize money to top it off and with a win another nice earner. A good cup run could bring in extra unplaned money into the club.
With teams disrespecting the cup with weaken teams there is always a chance to beat the more illustrious teams of the Premier League.
Although it was the fourth round of the Welsh Cup this weekend my team Llantwit Major trip to Cefn Druids is next Saturday. Maybe the game this weekend was postponed, who knows.
