Can you explain the mass indifference of the Celtic fans in my game, when only 5,757 people turned up in total to the potential Cup Final slaughter of a Div 2 team when the game was held in their home city?

I wasnt expecting a full gate at, and my post wasnt a complaint to SI. I tihnk it was spot on. I was trying to add sarcasm and failled! Seeing as my home gate in NCS is season 1 was around 600 at best.

Just wanted to see if there was a difference with Utd.

Fair enough I've seen some dodgy attendances in cup fixtures in previous FMs - I remember going into a third round FA cup tie against Tottenham at WHL with a Conference National club and there being an attendance of about 4000. Frustration doesn't begin to describe it.

Am I in the right forum here

Kriss, I fail to see your concern.

While the guy is obviously not a regular, the question, in and of itself, is far from anti-LLM, and definitely not taboo.

Just because most of us think Cups Suck Arse, doesn't mean that question is that awful. Even if it is GQ-esque.

It wasn't the content but the quality thereof which confused me.

It could turn the thread into a bragfest though...

As I usually can't bother with cups for the first season or two I guess the most I've advanced since FM05 would be the odd 1st Round by pure luck.

2020-21 Bristol Rovers (Conference National)

FA Cup 3rd Rnd: Nottm Forest (PRM) 1 - 1 Rovers (Att: 15,637)
FA Cup 3rd Rnd Replay: Rovers 2 - 1 Nottm Forest (Att: 11,904/11,916)

FA Cup 4th Rnd: Rovers 1 - 2 Portsmouth (PRM) (Att: 11,902)

Imagine my dismay at having to replay the 3rd round tie!

They're no Man Utd at OT, but those two ties put me firmly in the black.
