Wouldn’t surprise me.After getting through rnd 4 the anticipation of who will be drawn out of the bag has been taken away.
Bit shit really and unecesssary, will they draw the qtrs and semi together too I wonder
Yep wasn’t that the 4-0 game ?Would have loved to have got down to Swansea again this year. Anyone else get pissed wet through getting in to the ground last time round? Almost as bad as the rain after the Wigan final
Morriston ?And I live 5 minutes away from Swansea's
3-2Yep wasn’t that the 4-0 game ?
The Cup game ah sorry. I was at the 4-0 and I think it pissed down that night too - I think?
I’m not so sure - as mag points out on this thread, having liverpool the Sunday before and Spurs the Saturday after will surely have an impact on selection.
Yes - and with those 3 matches that week, we’ll certainly need to make full use of it.hopefully other than Kev we should have a full squad to select from including Kun
Updated after today's results.5th Round Draw:
Swansea vs Manchester City
Man Utd vs West Ham
Leicester vs Brighton
Wolves vs Southampton
Barnsley vs Chelsea
Sheff Utd vs Bristol City
Everton or Sheff Wed vs Wycombe or Tottenham
Burnley vs Bournemouth or Crawley
Yep.The posh end ofMorriston ?
Not sure Swansea will even play a full strength side against us, they have Norwich before us and then Sheff Wed away on the Saturday after, promotion will be far more important to them

Just the 2 games without Var at Swansea and Barnsley,all games played midweek.Updated it after Everton game!
Really starting to open up now.Updated it after Everton game!
Swansea are in very good form, and they're at home, it will need our strongest side, but we have difficult games either side, liverpool A then spurs H.We're three wins away from another final starting with Swansea.
All televised I assume - I’d guess 3 on bbc, 5 on bt based on split for 4th round ?Updated it after Everton game!

That would have to be Tuesday, as Bournemouth play Crawley then.Yes all ties on TV ... but I don’t understand why the draw couldn’t be done today for instance or even tomorrow after Spurs game ... how did any arrangement for any fixture was sorted before this round was played anyway ... I mean look at our ties, four teams had to play to know which two would play next round so knowing this vs this will play that vs that didn’t really help anyone ...
I have a feeling after this next tie against Swnsea we’d see two draws at once again so QF and SF done together - just like they do in CL these days.
A draw now after knowing who’s out and who’s left (or at least after most of ties have been played) would have been more exciting than knowing most of draws beforehand ...
