[claretburns]

45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 54, 55, 57, 60, 63 or 64 at home please.

[claptrappers_union]

Man City away please

[rincon]

I was shocked to see that Blackburn haven't been knocked out yet

[Claretforever]

Any from 45 and below on that list.

Any other side beats us at the moment.

We'd have a chance against Wednesday at home.

[Claretforever]

We'd have a chance against Wednesday at home.

Hmm… I’m not convinced. Noisy and full away end would scare our lot.

[Paul Waine]

I fancy Wimbledon away. A new stadium, of course, pretty much on the old Plough Lane site. Short journey for me. Plus, there's something comes to mind from the 1970s.

UTC

[addisclaret]

It'll be 23 away

[timshorts]

It'll be 23 away

It can't be, as if it was, we couldn't get them away in the fourth round.

It will be a home tie against someone that doesn't make us excited. Bristol city, Swansea, Shrewsbury. No chance of being on TV. That will be reserved for man u drawn home to Wigan/Watford/doesn'treallymatterbutitwillbeacupcaketeam, non-league side home to somebody half-decent and Liverpool away at the worst team left in the draw (not meaning Blackburn)

[AGENT_CLARET]

We'll draw Middlesbrough

[ClaretTony]

I've updated the top of the thread following yesterday's results

[StayingDown4Ever]

Plymouth at home.

[HB Claret]

Ramsgate away for me - only a 15 mile journey !!

[Zom Zom]

We'd have a chance against Wednesday at home.

I still shiver at the memory of their last visit. Maybe a chance to erase that from my memory would be beneficial.

[StayingDown4Ever]

That horrifying 3-1 victory?

[Ric_C]

Will Utd be drawn at home yet again?

[Zom Zom]

That horrifying 3-1 victory?

Hmmm... Maybe an earlier one than that. You got me there. Last time I watched Wednesday they were already relegated and slipped 7 past us.

Mind you, 1-3 is pretty bad too.

[daveisaclaret]

We've had a horrible home defeat v Wednesday in the Coyle promotion season since the 2-7 game too.

[spt_claret]

48-52 or 64 please.

[ClaretTony]

Hmmm... Maybe an earlier one than that. You got me there. Last time I watched Wednesday they were already relegated and slipped 7 past us.

Mind you, 1-3 is pretty bad too.

We've played them eight times at home since then but beaten them in only one of them, their last visit. We have a much better record at Hillsborough on that time, having won three, drawn three and lost one.

[ArmchairDetective]

Where can we watch the draw?

[mybloodisclaret]

ITV now

[ArmchairDetective]

Great thanks.

Would love Stockport away.

[ArmchairDetective]

Never mind

[dougcollins]

Oh ffs.

[Westleigh]

We like playing Spurs in the cup.

[RetroClaret]

[jrgbfc]

Awful draw.

[mdd2]

As soon as Spurs came out I thought number 9 and for once I was correct-not the team i would have put down as my first choice

[Bosscat]

Sunderland v Newcastle Utd we know thats going to be on TV

[Rileybobs]

If we’re going to win the cup then we’ve got to play the best teams at some point.

[box_of_frogs]

What weekend are they being played?

[ClaretTony]

Bad draw for us

[Clovius Boofus]

What weekend are they being played?

The first Friday/Saturday in January.

[Carnsmerry12]

All London teams drawn at home I think.

[DAVETHEVICAR]

Awful draw and probably won’t make TV for more revenue
Arsenal and Spurs drawn at home probably play one Saturday and move the other

[Steve1956]

Awful draw.

Who cares...tinpot cup

[Boss Hogg]

Oh well there is always next year. At least we can concentrate on the League

[Rileybobs]

Awful draw and probably won’t make TV for more revenue
Arsenal and Spurs drawn at home probably play one Saturday and move the other

Pace is probably pretty happy with a share of the gate revenue.

[Clive 1960]

Good draw or not ..

[claretburns]

Awful draw and probably won’t make TV for more revenue
Arsenal and Spurs drawn at home probably play one Saturday and move the other

The Arsenal v Liverpool game will be on TV, probably Sunday afternoon.

[ClaretTony]

Awful draw and probably won’t make TV for more revenue

TV money in the FA Cup is a negligible amount for Premier League clubs

[jrgbfc]

No trains down the East coast line from Leeds that weekend.

[Dodobdobodobo]

Let us down there has my favourite Mr Trevor Steven

[Spijed]

And Man Utd are guaranteed to be on.

[mybloodisclaret]

Will deffo be going this. When do people think time and date will be confirmed?

[FCBurnley]

Usual BS fake draw

[ClaretTony]

Will deffo be going this. When do people think time and date will be confirmed?

Selecting the TV games comes first - not sure how long it will take before it's all sorted

[jurek]

Nothing to lose with this tie.
Hopefully by then we'll be closer
to those above us in the league and still fighting to stay up.

We might still surprise Spurs but probably not likely
and if we lose we can then concentrate on staying up
which is the main objective.
