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

[ArmchairDetective]

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.

Ah yes I was there. Maybe why I'd forgotten didn't recall it being the quarters though.

[Wembley09]

Yep, so Man City away again next to ruin it all.

[IanMcL]

Millwall or Preston/Wycombe

[Goody1975]

PNE away

[jrgbfc]

Surely due a home draw, although probably get Bournemouth or Ipswich away!

[bumba]

1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 or 16 at home will do

[Darnhill Claret]

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

[rexe78202]

Doncaster at home.

[winsomeyen]

In the next round of the cup? Bastards at home for my good self

[cockneyclaret]

Definitely a home game but please not city

[Spijed]

Definitely a home game but please not city

Or Rovers

[jrgbfc]

A winnable home game, Preston, Cardiff or Millwall.

[Bosscat]

I want Plymouth at home ...

[Vegas Claret]

the way it's gone then anyone away tbh

[colne-claret]

Anyone but Blackburn or City. Preston at home would be my pick.

[dougcollins]

I really can't believe how many want to play b@stards.

The last team I want to draw.

[Woodleyclaret]

Anyone but City

[ElectroClaret]

Absolutely anyone at home, including R*Vers.
We'd batter 'em.

[LincsWoldsClaret]

Doncaster Rovers away please

[IanMcL]

Doncaster Rovers away please

Doncaster would be a new ground for me.

[LincsWoldsClaret]

Doncaster would be a new ground for me.

They just need to beat Palace and it could happen

[Goliath]

Millwall at home would be tasty. They'd be allowed to being 4000 wouldn't they?

[claret10]

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

[JR1882]

Millwall at home would be tasty. They'd be allowed to being 4000 wouldn't they?

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

[jrgbfc]

With only 8 games not sure any will actually be played at Saturday 3pm.

[AlargeClaret]

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

[AlargeClaret]

With only 8 games not sure any will actually be played at Saturday 3pm.

That’s absolutely pitiful , but true .

[Pickles]

Anyone but Rovers

[Tricky Trevor]

Beat Cardiff at home and we are 1 match from Wembley.

[gandhisflipflop]

Anyone at home

[4:20]

Wolves at home, show them how it's done.

[tarkys_ears]

I want Plymouth at home ...

And I wanna shag Keira Knightley

Lets see who gets lucky first!

[TheFamilyCat]

Millwall at home would be tasty. They'd be allowed to being 4000 wouldn't they?

They might be allowed to but they wouldn't.

[Beagle]

Preston or Man Utd at home.

[TheFamilyCat]

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

That is true, hard as it is to believe.

[Bosscat]

And I wanna shag Keira Knightley

Remember me to Keira nice girl

[Rileybobs]

Yeah Man Utd at home would be tasty.

[Commy]

Does nobody want Exeter

[Ric_C]

There's no way Rovers are beating Wolves

[elwaclaret]

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

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)

[louieollie]

Millwall away for me as I've got a good mate who's a die hard Millwall fan so that little bit of extra in it for me

[HahaYeah]

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

[John Johnson 1605]

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.

[IanMcL]

And I wanna shag Keira Knightley

Lets see who gets lucky first!

Can you bend it like Beckham?

[expoultryboy]

After watching them on Friday , utd away please.
