I kept meaning to go to Anfield, never thinking that the chance to go the following season would go!

 

Liverpool away if they get through.

 

Skates at home?

Liverpool away - Would like to see Anfield before it's knocked to the ground.

Portsmouth home or away - Never been to a derby before.

Top 4 team away, but not Man U.

Or a team we can beat easily to progress another round.

Arsenal away. A London away day,, and I've not been to the new library yet.

 

Mind you, watching us get thumped by their third string would be a bit humbling.

Arsenal at Home.

 

Just so we get the gate receipts.

 

If it's money you're after you want Man U away; equal share of gate receipts between the two teams in FA Cup games.

at home is good and someone who we have a good chance of beating!!! it would be good to go as far as possibe, I know money is not a major issue but the extra money would be nice... I feel pretty greedy saying that the skates wouldnt like me would they!!

Yep Liverpool away would be gr8! Gets my vote too

 

Think we will get leicester away though

Arsenal or Wigan away.

 

Pompey would be far too much of a distraction and even with their current woes, I'd still expect them to beat us quite comfortably. Maybe next year...

I would have agreed with you on that last season but they're a total shambles now. I would really fancy us to beat them if we were drawn against them, their fans would lose sleep big-time at the very real prospect of losing to us when we're two leagues below them.

Unfortunately I agree with Steve; it really is a massive drop that we have been through in the past 5 years and, as awful as they are looking in the Prem, the blue filth are still streets ahead of us on the pitch. I don't like saying it, but it's obviously true, at least for now.

 

Next year is a different proposition but this year I'd be very happy to stay away from our fishy poor relations.

The lowest team possiable at home. I'd rather we went as far as we can and become the nations favourite underdog then get knocked out by a "big club" in the early rounds.

That's a pragmatic thought.

 

Wouldn't want the Skates just in case they win and it becomes the turning point of their season.

 

Coventry at home would suit me :wink:

A p*ss easy team, Portsmouth, or Spurs.

 

(I realise the first two suggestions are similar enough to be combined as one).

 

Ditto, wouldn't mind a team below us either... another easy cup run please! :D

Posted

anybody but Pompey. They still would beat us and in doinbg so could start a resurgence.When they beat us 1-0 at FP it transformed them from a relegation team to go on and win their first game away and many more.

Ah the anual, "I want to get beaten by the Skates in the Cup!" malarkey. :rolleyes:

 

If they overcome Coventry then they will have beaten a much better side than us away from home. We will, in all likelyhood lose that game. Why not wait another season and hammer AFC Portsmouth in the 1st round? Besides, if they get us, the game will be a sell out and they will get more money.

We'd get a lot more from Arsenal away. Gate receipts are shared in the Cup (45%/45%).

 

We need to draw someone at home, don't care who but would be better if we had a chance of winning. So thats Liverpool then.

Stoke at home - winnable game with some old boys coming back too...!

 

Another loon that thinks we'll beat a Premier League team.

 

I agree with the old faces line, but to think we'd get near giving them a good game is tremendously naive.

Ah but by the time the next round is played they will have no players left. They left out 4 of their first choice players today, any coincidence they are not cup tied now?
