This is a draw I'd liked to have avoided. I think we'll get beat.

Not got a good feeling about it either but I'd absolutely fucking love it if we hammered them.

Why would we get beat? Championship team at home. Can't ask for more.

It's in between Arsenal and Chelsea so it'll be a reserve team, they are high in confidence, rock solid at the back, our reserves won't be up for it as much as them, we lost to Wigan last year. As strange as it sounds I'd rather we played them away so they attacked us.

5,500, just about your average home attendance these days ;o)


32 thousand at home against forest, 7k away at Blackburn, 5k away at Huddersfield i could go on but weve had fantastic support this season and man city fans think u should have a look at that before u go on about boro fans <a class="postlink" href="https://www.facebook.com/breakingnewsteesside/posts/409064992548855" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">https://www.facebook.com/breakingnewste ... 4992548855</a>.
As expected still no humour."

Cleavers your humour needs an element of truth and fact otherwise it just comes across as shiote craic. Don't believe the bollox that skysports and the southern tabloids sports pages print. Look for yourself and see where the largest championship home crowd was so far this season and then look where the largest championship away crowd was so far this season.

For anyone worried any trouble (there seems to be a few). It wont happen. 20 years ago maybe but not today. Banning orders, police intel and the fact that all of our allocation will be sold to season ticket holders before they reach general sale will stop any problems.

As for the tie itself. We're a canny team and possibly the best in the championship but there's a huge gulf between a top premiership team and a top championship team. It depends how seriously Pellegrini takes the game but then again it is the cup.

Good luck in the league. I'd much sooner your mob win it than the russian/cockney alliance but fingers crossed you wont make the fifth round of the cup.

Good luck on the day. We struggled against Shef Wed we may struggle against you.

It was posted with a ;o) at the end for a reason.

However if you would prefer facts (you made me go and look), and whilst 33k V Notts F (on boxing day) is good, previous to that we have....

17k V Derby
18k V Blackburn
23k V Bournemouth
16k V Norwich
17k V Watford
16k V Fulham

I could go on, but no doubt your 5500 fans will want to sing "Where were you when you were shit" at us, but you'll need to be quick to beat this season record of 1m 38 seconds in, so best you get practising :o)
 
Really happy with this draw were at home against a good team sonhopefully will be a good game. Also the smoggies will bring a big crowd so should be interesting.
 
Think we have a decent chance, although nothing's granted. As said before on here, we'll probs play a reserve team or thereabouts, so anything can happen. We should have no problem beating these, but then I thought that about Burnley and Sheff Wednesday too... Pretty normal for us to struggle when you least expect it. We'll be fine tho, I'm sure ;-)
 
I'm sure Boro will get 5,500 - same as Sheff Weds.

Hopefully £15/£20 again and another full house
