Is an FA cup final worth more than a shot at promotion??

[Palace03]

Just in the case of Millwall before their FA cup semi-final success they were flying looking alomost certain of making the playoffs. Now after that success it seems they are looking ahead to the Final and its cost them badly with them not picking up a win in their last 6 matches or something to that effect.

What do people think is playing in an FA Cup Final worth giving away a 1 in 4 chance at promotion.

If it were Arsenal in that situation I'd much rather promotion. Sure, an FA Cup final doesn't land in your lap all that often but financially speaking Millwall would be far, far, far better off next season in the Premier League than another season in the Nationwide.

yeah they are in the UEFA cup now, but they wont last long.

that said i dont think they are related.

Tough question but with some luck Millwall could play in this final & not disgrace themselves & get promoted next season.

An FA cup final is a rare thing for all but the top 4 or 5, they had to go for it.

Imagine if the said stuff the cup & lost in the playoff semi's (or worse) anyway, they'd cop a bagging for that too!
