Re: FA Cup 2018/19
Millwall the biggest giant killers in FA Cup history, we'll equal with Southampton.
Also, the only non top flight club to make 11 Quarter Finals.
Biggest small club in the world.

In fact, we're infamous for it. It's just now it's proved on the pitch as well.

One could argue that West Ham, Tottenham, etc are bigger. And how are you equal with Southampton?

In English FA cup history yes but in the world is stretching it a bit in my opinion.

Simple question, would you prefer to regularly beat a team(s) above your division every year and never win a trophy, or actually win a cup?

Now you have actually asked a question, I will answer it.
I would rather win the cup.

Pretty happy with it. Division above so always hard but at home and a local(ish) game. We have a good record at home in big games.
I predict Millwall to win and then be accused of homophobic chanting.
