The game will be played on Feb 13/14/15/16. Think there's a good chance of it being televised.

Feb now looks like:

Sun 1 - Villa (H)
Sat 7 - Spurs (A)
Tue 10 - Leicester (H)
Fri/Sat/Sun/Mon 13/14/15/16 - Boro (H)
Sat 21 - Palace (A)
Wed 25 - Monaco (H)

So,if all things all in place,after the fifth round the only top club remaining in the draw might be MU,that is if they beat Cambridge.

Can't see Liverpool beating Pardiola's Crystal Palace with SanoGOAT in form.

I love how you have joined me in realizing that we are not going to make it past this round Proud

Liverpool and United have two away draws, albeit, against weaker opposition. Still wouldn't rule out some more FA Cup "magic"

by Sri Tue Jan 27, 2015 6:31 am

This past weekend, however, a lot of magic happened when the supposedly weaker opposition played away from home though hmm

And I firmly believe that the law of averages is the biggest BS on earth.

We keep getting the late kick-offs on Sundays Proud

Treating us like the cup holders that we are. FA :bow:

While we're on the note of Sundays, the game against Villa will be our 5th consecutive match that we've played on a Sunday.

by Sri Wed Feb 04, 2015 9:36 pm

Turns out that both Liverpool and United have made it through.

by MJ Wed Feb 04, 2015 10:09 pm

Still two more away ties for them though.

Sebastien Squillaci has just knocked Monaco out of the Coupe de France.

If he can do it...

by Sina Sun Feb 15, 2015 6:44 pm

either of Blackburn/Bradford at Home either for revenge
or Reading pls

by El Gunner Sun Feb 15, 2015 6:49 pm

We've been fairly lucky with the draw so far.
Two home games against lesser opposition and and the only away game happened to be against the weakest of the 3 we faced thus far. So I wouldn't be surprised if we got Liverpool or United either at home or away.

by Jay29 Mon Feb 16, 2015 7:40 pm

Liverpool vs Blackburn
Bradford vs Reading
Preston/Man Utd vs Arsenal (Hodgson drew us, so blame him)
Villa vs West Brom

by El Gunner Mon Feb 16, 2015 7:43 pm

Might as well settle this "who gets to 12 first" in the Quarters. Bring those *bleep* on! Bunch of unmeaningful assholes.
