FA Cup 3rd Rd Draw - Rotherham (H), 2pm Sunday 6th Jan 2019

Wanted City to play Fleetwood when Uwe was in charge so Joey Barton will have to do instead.
 
Too late for this, but i HATE knowing the ball numbers and which team is which. There was nothing finer than listening to the draw on Radio 2, hearing the swish of the balls in the bag, one being drawn out and hearing "no 23" before the commentator, in a snooker commentator vibe, quietly said "Manchester City" before they carried on to tell us who we would be beaten by in that round....

Tell that to the kids nowadays....
 
Any PL team battling relegation at home would suit me. They’ll play a second string team who’ll go through the motions and accept the inevitable defeat.

Lower league teams will be mad for it and go flying in with all kinds of mediaeval challenges
 
Purely from a where I've not seen us away, and who I've not seen us play at home (either ground) perspective:

Accrington - Home or away
AFC Wimbledon - Home or away
Doncaster - Home
Fleetwood Town (If they get past Guisley) - Home or away
Newport (If they win their replay) - Home or away
Peterbrough (If they win their replay) - Home
Rotherham - Away (saw us at Millmoor but not at their new place)

Current league teams only. Though I'll be happy with Barnet, Guisley or any other non-league team.

Wouldn't want this mob anywhere near our players' shins!
 
It's odd how the draw will often pitch teams who are already meeting in the league around the same time. Should just point out that ties are scheduled for the weekend of the 5th and that we play Liverpool on January 3rd and Wolves on January 12th, respectively.
