Who remembers when the GPG used to be good? Well in them heady days there were literally hundreds of GPGites casting their vote on Cup Fever runs. It dried up soon after Sir Martin left.

Lets resurrect the maddog spirit.

Cast your vote team handsome

we are concentrating on the F A Cup this year & anything less than being still in it at the turn of the decade will be a disaster and blame will be placed firmly at the door of Jimmy Anderson.

I'll expect the Bees to win at Gateshead- they've go to start showing some friggin' form before the Millwall game.

I'd prefer they showed some footballing form before the Millwall game to be honest, but I know what you mean and agree.

Bees to get to the third round but we lose away to some non-descript Championship team, rather than one of the real big-boys

I'd love us to have a decent cup run but I'm not at all confident for Saturday and think it'll be a draw with us winning the replay and annoyingly getting knocked out in the second round to someone irritating like MK Dons or Swindon

I've got a bad feeling that we're going to get turned over at Gateshead.

2nd round exit away to Hartlepool. I need Norwich to get beaten in the first or 2nd round too as 7 of us have booked and paid for non refundable hotels on Jan 23 not knowing it was FAC round 3 day. Doh!

Not exactly over filled with confidence. However, would be terribly disappointed if we lost. Take every game as it comes and if by some lucky chance we make the 3rd. round, I would love a really big tie like Arsenal away. At least the money would be useful.

Gradually getting a bit of cup fever and 68 years of hurt never stopped me dreaming. Bees v Pompey in the final for a (kind of) repeat of 1942.

Come on you Bees!!
