Our only remaining hope for a trophy this season.

Lets hope for some piss easy draws until the 6th round.

Tamworth or Harrogate Town would do nicely.

No chance. Umited will get Tamworth, and we will be away at Tottenham.
 
If ever we needed a home draw against a lower league side with an injury crisis - then this is it. We are one bad FA Cup draw away from playing out the string of the season from Feb onwards
 
Cup draw at 7pm, Id love a good away day at a new ground, Get me a new ground or one ive not been for ages, Blackburn (2011), Derby (1998) Barnsley (2001) Coventry or Doncaster both new to me
 
I predict that the Rags, Dips and Arse will get home draws, most likely v lower opponents. And be on TV.

What often goes unnoticed is the amount of home draws Chavs get in domestic cup comps. Could historically (ie last 2 decades) explain why they has a fair few FA Cup successes.

I am hacked off that the team were unprofessional and hung over in the FA Cup final last year - especially after slogging a semi win over Chavs; missing a chance to make history by doing a 'double double ' and losing to that shower who got into Europe ( albeit Thursday nights) because of this.

The way we are playing ATM I expect an away draw to the furthest located PL team...
 
I’d like Coventry away.

We’d get 5,000 tickets there, I’ve never been there before, it’s not that far away and is easy to get to.

Away FA Cup games are still some of the best days in football. Can’t beat a massive tribe of Blues in an FA Cup away end.

However, we very rarely get any tasty away games. All the big teams we get, we face at home, we mostly get home games and when we don’t it’s at the likes of Oxford, Newport, Cheltenham, Peterborough etc. (ie a bit boring with small allocations).

And most big teams we’ve faced (Chelsea twice, Arsenal, Liverpool) in the last few years we’ve faced at home with just Spurs and Newcastle away being tough away draws.

The BBC really are useless. The sports news page says the draw is on iplayer, but the dozy bastards don't include a link.
