but there was never a choice between winning the FA Cup and beating Man Ure today

so it's an utterly meaningless question when discussing how gutted we should be at losing today compared to how we should be feeling at having not made it through to the quarter finals last week.

        beating Leicester wouldn't have won us the FA Cup (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, Feb 26, 15:46:48
        
        never said it would lol (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Feb 26, 15:50:19
        
        I'm sure SCC wasnt saying it did, what would your answer be the the question? (n/m) (NCFC) - Jacksons_Twelfth, Feb 26, 15:48:18
        
        but there was never a choice between winning the FA Cup and beating Man Ure today (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, Feb 26, 15:52:30
        
        just wanted to know what was more important (NCFC) - SCC 28, Feb 26, 15:55:42
        
        Beat Man U (n/m) (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Feb 26, 15:45:10
        
        That's the difference, cup for me all day long (n/m) (NCFC) - Jacksons_Twelfth, Feb 26, 15:45:45
        
        I'd take a cup over one win in the prem if we are safe... (NCFC) - Rob NCFC, Feb 26, 15:48:03
        
        All a bit difficult to rationalise (NCFC) - norway, Feb 26, 15:49:48
        
        I'd take a cup win over relegation only IF... (NCFC) - Rob NCFC, Feb 26, 15:54:27
        
        is that you jake? (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Feb 26, 15:45:33
        
        and we beat man u and were relegated last time (NCFC) - SCC 28, Feb 26, 15:46:40
        
        Just answering the question you posed (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Feb 26, 15:49:21
        
        Winning things isn't important? (n/m) (NCFC) - Brandonio, Feb 26, 15:52:08
        
        Of course. Are you all wilfully misunderstanding? (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Feb 26, 15:57:23
        
        We were safe in the league, that is the point (NCFC) - Brandonio, Feb 26, 16:00:08
        
        To me that sounds like "safe is OK" (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Feb 26, 16:04:36
        
        yes but safe in Feb means (NCFC) - Brandonio, Feb 26, 16:08:28
        
        That's precisely where we differ then (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Feb 26, 16:11:30
        
        it's not like we're giving up on getting more league points (NCFC) - SCC 28, Feb 26, 16:06:15
        
        but we are staying up and are competing and progressing (NCFC) - SCC 28, Feb 26, 15:51:31
        
        agreed, very odd attitude, quite small time (n/m) (NCFC) - Brandonio, Feb 26, 15:47:11
