We've never played Preston in the FA Cup, so it'd be nice to be part of history!

Always surprised at that fact.

The chances are 1 in 2. The odds would be evens. Not sure what's hard to understand. Now let's stop clogging up the thread for everyone else.

The odds are 1 in 2 you are correct.
But you said the odds are 1/2 - you are familiar with how odds are annotated i’m guessing.

Only thing hard to understand here is how you keep on getting it wrong and then try and defend it !!

Do people actually watch the One Show regularly? Absolute dross waiting for the draw.

Agreed

Jobs for those on the BBC 'Gravy Train'.

Fantastic draw but shame it is away. Pressure on Parker to play the full team, huge error if he doesn’t and we go out.

Away again. Starting to get unreal.

Not sure I can be arsed going to Preston twice in two weeks.

Excellent draw.

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Mon Feb 10, 2025 7:18 pm

Better than someone like Bournemouth or Brighton away.

Devils_Advocate · Post by **Devils_Advocate** » Mon Feb 10, 2025 7:18 pm

Rather away to Preston than home to most of the Premier League teams in the draw

Could of been a lot worse

Winnable game, but what do we have to do to get a home tie.

Great opportunity to reach the final 8. We can do this!

Thats true, would be good for the club to give priority to any season ticket holders who didnt get a ticket to the league game.

I think the lads showed on the weekend we’re pretty good regardless.

A big squad and the league is much more important. A good chance to give squad players more minutes.

Unbelievable. I’d love to know the odds on us being drawn away from home.

DAVETHEVICAR · Post by **DAVETHEVICAR** » Mon Feb 10, 2025 7:21 pm

Great draw and won’t be on TV so probably Saturday 3 pm kick off

IanMcL · Post by **IanMcL** » Mon Feb 10, 2025 7:21 pm

That is a great draw. 2 historic Lancashire clubs. One progressing to the 6th round from the Championship - the last 8 guaranteed. Great.

CoolClaret · Post by **CoolClaret** » Mon Feb 10, 2025 7:21 pm

Fantastic draw, and (sorry if mentioned on this thread), the first time in our two clubs' storied histories that we've faced one another in the FA Cup!

A great chance to make it to the final 8, UTC!

ClaretTony · Post by **ClaretTony** » Mon Feb 10, 2025 7:22 pm

Another away tie but at least not so far to go. A first ever FA Cup meeting with PNE. Full draw at link.

This.
If the team at the weekend can dump Southampton out, I'm damn sure they can do the same to Preston.
League got to be priority.

Look at it this way. Would you have gone on if it was at home? If yes, then going to Preston is no great hardship.

Hopefully moved to Sunday as flying to Tenerife on 1st, Mrs NL will be keen to watch it in a bar.

As there are just eight matches it's bound to be on.

There will be a game on the Friday night.

Probably three on the Saturday, three on the Sunday and one on the monday night.
