I wonder which Premier League team we will be away to?
I think it will be one of Haringey, The Arse or CFC. There again it might be that we are drawn to play all three at the same time!

Could someone explain the theory that we'll get hard draw away to one off the favorite clubs. Would this not be putting the so called favourite clubs in danger of being knocked out.???
http://bbc.in/2w0GNE1Wait for the first article claiming we're disrespecting the competition by playing a changed team.

The idea we will definitely get one of the favourites is a bit silly, but we've not faced a team below Championship level in either domestic cup since Notts County six and a half years ago. Compare that with Arsenal (sponsored by Emirates) being drawn against two non-league teams last season in the FA Cup (sponsored by Emirates).Could someone explain the theory that we'll get hard draw away to one off the favorite clubs.

Even if holding it in China made sense, why hold it at mid morning their time?No. As said, at 04:15 am our time.

Er no. The ref will see to it that we go out. Should we draw a minnow it's far harder to play the joker and put us out,that have to get in our half first.Could someone explain the theory that we'll get hard draw away to one off the favorite clubs.

Don't bother getting up at 4.15 for the draw,this years final is between rags and dippers.

Should just stop this competition. It serves absolutely no purpose as every club changes almost their entire team. As an example, Ipswich made 11 changes last night. They've got 1 league game on Saturday and are then off for two weeks. They're skint, like many championship teams, but don't feel there's any value in trying to stay in the tournament. If nobody wants to be in it, it needs to be scrapped and the FA Cup can start earlier in the season.
