1 v 4, live on television
14 v 13, obviously,
3 v 10 would be nice to get rid of at least one unpleasant bunch of supporters/club

Aside from fixtures 4 and 16 on that list it starts to look like an all PL affair + Leeds unless theres a couple of upsets this weekend. It'd be nice to have a cup run for once though. The last decent run I remember was the league cup semi final v spurs. Our defensive record means we could have a decent chance of scraping through the rounds. Today will be a good indicator of how realistic that is.

We got to the Quarter Final of the FA Cup in the Kompany promotion season until the obligatory away tie at Man City.

We'd beat City this time around. They're nothing much at the moment. Home to Ipswich would be good. Tiny steps.

Can't remember where I saw it...but I'm sure I read that we have never drawn Preston in the FA Cup - if true considering we have both been there from the off it is very surprising

Think it’s upto 15% so around 3k. Depends what they would sell & kick off times etc.

As a one off it would probably help the atmosphere having the cricket fielders back in the longside

Not B@stards as they’d ruin it with an early KO , hopefully a few upsets and a winnable home draw

Not from the FA Cups off… pre- league and back before Burnley FC… then we chose not to enter for a few years; then as was an amateur competition and Rovers got us and Preston (and Darwin and Accrington FC) banned for having pro’s (even though they did too, they were well done in with the fa)

A team higher than us who would be a good workout for the squad, not Man City.

Manchester City or Liverpool at home.
Give our fringe a run out and exit.
The worst situation is that we draw the weakest team, progress and are penalised by a schedule that doesn’t affect Leeds or Sheffield.
