CosbehFox Posted 8 January 2017 Posted 8 January 2017 I can't make it unless it's a team for farmer country out East or London. I basically want as 'easy' as possible - Wigan home. They have bigger problems to worry about and we should see them off
StanSP Posted 8 January 2017 Posted 8 January 2017 8 hours ago, Bert said: We'll need to win in the 5th round as well then. Brentford or Rochdale away. The inevitable Hull away doesn't fill me with any joy or excitement. got a bit ahead of myself there!
Ross-Kemp Posted 8 January 2017 Posted 8 January 2017 A lower league team at home, Rochdale, Sutton, Wimbledon, Derby or Lincoln. £10 adults, kids for a £1. Full house, easier chance of progressing to the next round. Cup win > a decent away.

I take it you don't want to face them at all? Not unless it's at home and you can guarantee a 6-0 drubbing. For selfish reasons I'd prefer an away tie at a new ground I've not had the chance to do. Brentford still in?
HighPeakFox Posted 8 January 2017 Posted 8 January 2017 Someone mentioned Rochdale earlier....I saw us play there in 1993 (I think)...

Brentford still in, so are Oxford, Accrington, Plymouth, Cambridge (playing today at home against Leeds), Rochdale, Lincoln (replay), Fleetwood (replay), Sutton United/AFC Wimbledon, Wigan and Wycombe. Peterborough are highly likely to lose away at Chelsea today.
Foxes1 Posted 8 January 2017 Posted 8 January 2017 Accrington Stanley away or Wimbledon / Sutton United away or Fleetwood.
katieakita Posted 8 January 2017 Posted 8 January 2017 Nice home draw against a lower league side would do for me with the likes of Utd,City, Arsenal etc drawing each other its about time we had a decent FA Cup run.

Could be lively and small allocation. Fleetwood And Sutton or afc. Any away will do. We never seem to get those sort of ties tho.

Was sitting in the stands for a friendly when's Cambiasso announced he was leaving and I don't fancy revisiting such a traumatic evening.
Bobby Hundreds Posted 8 January 2017 Posted 8 January 2017 Oxford, Lincoln, Derby away or Sutton at home. Reality will be Burnley or Saints away.
Dan Posted 8 January 2017 Posted 8 January 2017 Wigan away would be great. We'd get that 5k away end we would've had in the Championship if not for some hilariously bad luck in the fixtures. Seriously if we draw Tottenham away they should put the balls back in the bag and re-do the ****ing thing.
Guest CityFan 06 Posted 8 January 2017 Posted 8 January 2017 Any away game with a big allocation would be great. Something simialr to Forest (a) in 2012 when we took 8k. I'd like us to draw a Championship or League One / Two club and travel to a real, traditional English ground. Although they're knocked out, I was always quite fond of Preston's Deepdale stadium. That would've been good. Getting someone like Barnsley, Huddersfield or Blackburn would bring back memories of those Championship away days.
Papasmurf Posted 8 January 2017 Posted 8 January 2017 Can't make the game that weekend so I'm just hoping for a TV game.
Manini Posted 8 January 2017 Posted 8 January 2017 Rochdale, Huddersfield, Barnsley away as a personal preference as they're easy for me to get to. Failing that, Leeds Away if they get through because I've never actually sat in the away end at Elland Road despite 20+ trips. Derby anywhere would be nice. Sutton at home would be a good TV game.
NewEnglandFox Posted 8 January 2017 Posted 8 January 2017 Liverpool wouldn't be a bad draw if they're going to play the U21s again. Klopp disrespected the competition last year as well. They were in the same scenario with the league cup too. They have a League Cup semi 2nd leg the midweek before and Chelsea midweek after the 4th round tie. Or Plymouth on the same ball. Only a few balls to be avoided out of the 31 options.
StanSP Posted 8 January 2017 Posted 8 January 2017 ball numbers 1 Ipswich Town or Lincoln City 2 Rochdale 3 Manchester United 4 Hull City 5 Sunderland or Burnley 6 Blackburn Rovers 7 Millwall 8 Manchester City 9 Brighton & Hove Albion 10 Blackpool or Barnsley 11 Wigan Athletic or Nottingham Forest 12 Birmingham City or Newcastle United 13 Chelsea 14 Middlesbrough 15 Derby County 16 Leicester City 17 Liverpool or Plymouth Argyle 18 Wycombe Wanderers 19 Watford 20 Arsenal 21 Fulham 22 Wolverhampton Wanderers 23 Cambridge United or Leeds United 24 Bristol City or Fleetwood Town 25 Huddersfield Town 26 Tottenham Hotspur 27 Brentford 28 Bolton Wanderers or Crystal Palace 29 Norwich City or Southampton 30 Sutton United or AFC Wimbledon
oxtonfox Posted 8 January 2017 Posted 8 January 2017 Although In the last 4 rounds we have been involved in the FA Cup we have drawn a premiership team away (Spurs and then Aston Villa in 2015, Spurs again in 2016 and Everton in 2017); a home tie is, in theory, as likely as an away tie. Given who's currently left in the FA Cup this time and assuming that the higher division team will win the replays there will be: 12 premier teams 13 championship teams 4 div 1 teams 2 div 2 teams in this years's FA Cup 4th round. So roughly a 2 in 5 chance of drawing another premiership team, a 2 in 5 chance of a championship team and a 1 in 5 chance of drawing either a div 1 or division 2 team. Take your pick.
