Wimbledon away.

Anyone know what number we are?

wilks_bfc · Post by **wilks_bfc** » Mon Jan 09, 2017 7:14 pm

5 I think

Fleetwood or Bristol City at Turf. Happy with that.

Just missed Wrovers too!.

Not the worst home draw I suppose, should we get through

Not a bad draw, as long as we take care of Sunderland of course.

wilks_bfc · Post by **wilks_bfc** » Mon Jan 09, 2017 7:22 pm

Got to admit it was getting little tense as numbers were reducing and us & rovers were still in the pot

simonclaret · Post by **simonclaret** » Mon Jan 09, 2017 7:24 pm

Every chance we could both be in round 5.

Wexford_Claret · Post by **Wexford_Claret** » Mon Jan 09, 2017 7:26 pm

Burnley? FA Cup? Home draw? Lower league opposition?

Surely not! Very happy about that.

We need to beat Sunderland though.

Seen as though I'm now a fully paid up member of the board I may as well contribute!!

Looking forward to the replay, you will probably beat us but we will sell out I'd guess and it'll be decent until you take the lead.

The draw is a good one. If not a little boring!!

Thought Stanley were going to get City for a moment.

Good if it's fleetwood........proper FA Cup game...

claretspice · Post by **claretspice** » Mon Jan 09, 2017 7:35 pm

Decent draw, particularly if Fleetwood get through. Fleetwood at home is very winnable and its got that quirkiness which makes for a really good cup occasion.

How many tickets do we have in total??

FA Cup.
You get a minimun percentage of seats don't you?
Not sure what it is though.

Just looked, subject to safety measures, up to 15% of capacity.

Could be an exodus from the Fylde along the M58 & M65 if Blackpoo! beat Barnsley too
Burnley v Fleetwood
B@$t@#ds v Blackpoo!

If we get around 4500 ish we will sell out. Any more we may struggle to do so.

Away section is around 2600 I think

For FA cup games it's 15% which would include the home section of that stand which would take it up to around 3900

jrgbfc · Post by **jrgbfc** » Mon Jan 09, 2017 8:47 pm

I know they've got good support but will be amazed if Sunderland bring 4000 down on a freezing cold evening in January.

LawsCanalJump · Post by **LawsCanalJump** » Mon Jan 09, 2017 8:53 pm

Obviously we need to beat Sunderland but it would be great to go a long way in the competition against lower opposition

Sunday game if we go through?
Won't play us and the neighbours on the same day!

There was only around 16000 home fans there on Saturday so I too will be amazed if Sunderland bring 4000 for the replay!

Pretty confident we will shift 3900

scouseclaret · Post by **scouseclaret** » Mon Jan 09, 2017 9:37 pm

Presumably they'll get the whole of the cricket field. We certainly won't need it!

Rammymike · Post by **Rammymike** » Mon Jan 09, 2017 9:52 pm

Perfect draw for us. The replay and potential 4th round are great opportunities for the likes of Barton, Darikwa, Tarka, Pope etc to get game time and prove themselves, we've got a big enough squad now to rotate a bit without going over the top and making fools of ourselves like Eddie did on Saturday.

You obviously know your fans better than I do (& I know 3 of them) but I'll be equally surprised as I will be impressed if you shift that many

The competion gets more serious for me at round 5 with bigger crowds and the big clubs putting out better teams plus theres normally still a handful of lower league clubs making a go of it

But until then and thats a long way off still yet,im not too bothered if we get knocked out just as long as we stay injury free

hampsteadclaret · Post by **hampsteadclaret** » Mon Jan 09, 2017 11:50 pm

I think we can beat Sunderland again [maybe not 4-1] ...they weren't very good.

Both Bristol City and Fleetwood [home] represent a real chance of progress...with a bit of luck we could soon be in the last 16 of the FA Cup.

It is about time we had a decent run in that..with our league position and our present squad, dreaming of getting to the Final isn't so daft is it?
