Happens to me every time in the cup .. I've won the Champions league two times from two finals but i can't qualify for the 3rd round of the cup..
I have only got past the prelims twice in 8 seasons! and I have won the league the last 8 in a row and the CL last year!.
x 17 x 5 x 1
Double winners x 5 , Treble x 1 ...Perfect league wins 26/26 x 1 (L8).
Every comment I make on this forum is based on my own experiences and so should be taken as such!.
