...if anyone spots one, do the right thing . Steal it, rip it to shreds. We are not non-league, none of that nonsense at Oxford.

We really should get Beano back in on an Emergency Loan just so the media can comment on him working in a women's underwear factory 17 years ago.
Broadcasters need this kind of inane nonsense, damnit!

I'm with Ste Merritt on this one.
We do not have any butchers, bakers, or candlestick makers in our side. It is not the only time we've been in the 3rd Round of the FA Cup. We are not in awe of Swansea. This is not our main target this year. We are a similar sized club to Swansea historically. We are not tin pot.
Any tin foil FA Cups should be destroyed and their owners banned. In the case of children, they should be taken from the care of their (obviously completely irresponsible) parents.
PS: Note to the BBC. We do not wear mortar boards and gowns, and couldn't give a shit about Cambridge!

I'm fully on board with you lads, and these children we're taking into care: I have a mate in the Brazilian League of Chimney Sweeps who would take them off our hands..... Let me know.

So if a child wants to get excited about the 'most famous cup competition in the world' which is being 'devalued' by bringing a mock FAC along you're going to insist it is destroyed. That is taking the wrong approach.
The competition should be celebrated.
Those who are going, enjoy it- I'm jealous. I will be on the edge of my sofa!

I think there's a little bit of tongue in cheek going on. The club are certainly encouraging such behaviour. Attachments:

Can't get too excited about tin foil FA cups (in the hands of little kids, NOT adults), but seeing premiership shirts in the ground does royally p*ss me off. A few weeks ago, one of those pitch forking guys was wearing a Liverpool top. Why would you do that? On the assumption that he has more than one shirt in his wardrobe, looked like a statement to me, that is "I support a PROPER club". If I were braver I would have said something ....

Anyone with a half and half scarf shall be burnt Sorry can't do links but look at the "live" BBC Sport Wycombe v Villa page. Scroll down to find a half and half banner! I hope we never get that chummy with opponents. Not to Eric Read: what does this record on the tinpotedness scale?

While we're at it, half and half hats are another idiotic item.
I propose anyone wearing one should be made to have a half and half head. ie: an axe should be inserted into their head while wearing said hat, at the exact point where the two colours meet.

I think it records only mild surprise, due to the fact it's Wycombe (we've got no rivals) Wanderers!

Got to disagree with you, Mr Read. I think half and half merchandise promotes harmony in the football environment. It says "we may be rivals, but that doesn't mean we have to hate each other". It's what football needs. This is 2016 after all. (Considers inserting a winking smiley, but reckons it's not needed).

Tickets will be half-price and they'll get priority parking of course.

Love a foil covered cardboard trophy it's what the cup is all about, plus it will guarantee you get you self on TV especially when paired with a 'thumbs up' gesture.

Hopefully the Swansea fans will have a lot of the horrible foil cups and we can have a bonfire of them when we win (the cups, not the fans, let's not go crazy)

Neutral zone didn't seem to work in the London Road - or am I confusing it with the empty space between two rows of police as they pushed the waring factions apart!?

I have had to give up on my foil FA cup, I don't have the time left to do it justice given my lack of craft skills, started on the paint pot trophy for a couple of weeks time instead.

Only the Cup, mate. Not the fu cking child. Tsk! I meant the parent should be destroyed too! Oh, sorry Eric. Crucifixion's too good for 'em, eh? A Wycombe / Villa shared banner thing seems quite apt since both clubs and their 'supporters' are ignored / despised by their neighbours.
