This won't go down well on RAWK ;)

Do we have any inkling of what the line up might be, like who travelled at least?

Fcuk me, what a bloody awful blast from the past.

From 10’s last night, all a bit strange

Hearing (not sure how reliable), Swindon have 7 late Covid withdrawals. Would go some way to explain the ridiculous odds fluctuations.

From 10’s last night, all a bit strange

Bunch of mardarses betting against city the moment the COVID news dropped, without really thinking about what 7 absent players leaves our starting eleven as (still very strong) imo. So they lowered the odds.

Crikey.

We weren't expecting to face a reserve/youth team as Pep takes the FA Cup seriously.
And the game is still on despite seven players isolating? (do they still have time to take a negative test or too late for that?). Respect for just cracking on with playing the tie.

Proper club, City. If it was Liverpool, we would never hear the end of Klopp's crying.

If it was Liverpool it would have been postponed, and Klopp would then complain about games being backlogged .

Don't you dare complain about it again then :-)

The BBC seem to be pretending that the match is not on. Not a word on the Football home page.

This is probably down to it being on ITV?
