Master Bates Posted 30 November, 2020 Posted 30 November, 2020 BBC 1 @ 7pm Saints ball 36 Pompey ball 51
Pilchards Posted 30 November, 2020 Posted 30 November, 2020 In the first rehearsal we got Pompey away. On the second rehearsal we got Pompey at home. Spooky!

dronskisaint Posted 30 November, 2020 Posted 30 November, 2020 Can you imagine how frustrating it would be to draw the skunts? I still want to...at St Mary's, ideally just to humiliate them still further but not being able to go would be purgatory!
lickierambert Posted 30 November, 2020 Posted 30 November, 2020 Portsmouth at home obviously. We've not lost an FA cup game to a team from a lower division since 2008 (Derby knocked us out on pens 2 years ago)
Pickles Posted 30 November, 2020 Posted 30 November, 2020 Don't really give a darn as long as one where might be able to find a stream👍
S-Clarke Posted 30 November, 2020 Posted 30 November, 2020 Probably something like Palace at home, Burnley away or Newcastle.

LGTL Posted 30 November, 2020 Posted 30 November, 2020 Usually I'd want Pompey away, but I'd probably rather avoid them with next to no chance of being able to go. The thought of smashing them again and not being there to see it is just too much.
CB Fry Posted 30 November, 2020 Posted 30 November, 2020 I've seen the draw and we've got Huddersfield away. Disappointing.
davefizzy14 Posted 30 November, 2020 Posted 30 November, 2020 (edited) A nice home draw would be good similar to last season when we got Huddersfield at home Edited 30 November, 2020 by davefizzy14
woodsaint1 Posted 30 November, 2020 Posted 30 November, 2020 Please can we have an away draw against a team in League 1 or below for once. Would like to see an analysis of our last 10 years of cup draws - its always PL or decent Championship teams we get 😴
DG Posted 30 November, 2020 Posted 30 November, 2020 (edited) Nice (home to Shrewsbury). Edited 30 November, 2020 by DG

CB Fry Posted 30 November, 2020 Posted 30 November, 2020 Well we should absolutely walk that no problem at all. 1

trousers Posted 30 November, 2020 Posted 30 November, 2020 (edited) Spurs playing here... #magicofthecup #marinefc Edited 30 November, 2020 by trousers
AlexLaw76 Posted 30 November, 2020 Posted 30 November, 2020 Good draw. Maybe a rotated team will play. Salisu and diallo and hopefully the big striker will start
Whitey Grandad Posted 30 November, 2020 Posted 30 November, 2020 Just make sure that you all pronounce Shrewsbury correctly.
Kenilworthy Posted 30 November, 2020 Posted 30 November, 2020 Bet the Spurs game is switched to their new stadium

I've lived close to Shrewsbury for 35 years and no-one knows the correct pronunciation. There's historical evidence that it may have originally been Shrowsbury, do that's correct, but try telling that to the other half of the town. Even my family is split 50/50.

But it’s going to be played under Covid restrictions so Spurs will have to rough it, Marine aren’t going to pass up the chance to let their fans see this.
JRM Posted 30 November, 2020 Posted 30 November, 2020 Good draw, home game against a team near the bottom of the 3rd division, gives us a chance. I'd rather have had Marine though. I'd say play our B team, but they are probably about 4th tier level going by some of their performances this season so will need a mix. Busy Christmas period, plus a full midweek round of Premier league fixtures midweek after 3rd round weekend i cant see many clubs playing a first XI. (We have Leeds away few days later) I remember the 93 cup defeat away at Gay Meadow, a highlight of the Branfoot era.

skintsaint Posted 30 November, 2020 Posted 30 November, 2020 Got to be happy with that draw. Play some reserve/youth and carve out a 1-0 win. Long with the winner.

They match the house numbers - so that when the ball flies into someone's back garden, one of the players can pop round and ask for the ball back. Nice little job for Harry Kane. 1

Matthew Le God Posted 8 December, 2020 Posted 8 December, 2020 Every FA Cup 3rd round game will be available to watch live... https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/55232300 3
JRM Posted 11 December, 2020 Posted 11 December, 2020 Confirmed game will be 8pm on the Saturday night on BT Sport extra2. Will be interesting to see how the club manage ticket sales, FA cup so no season ticket refunds needed, would be nice if they give other fans a chance , especially if we're able to have 4000 by then, I can't see many wanting to go to this anyway.

Really? You underestimate our support. I think there are a lot more than 4,000 fans, including me, who would love to be there. This year we have a better chance than most of reaching Wembley. The problem is that one of the big clubs always seems to reach the final and whoever plays them is basically cannon fodder. Little Pompey were so lucky to get Cardiff in the final. The chances of two small clubs being in the final again, like that, are pretty remote. But, Swansea fans probably never believed that they would be so lucky as to get Bradford in a major Wembley final so anything is possible. We live in hope that we won't get drawn against Manchester United or Liverpool as usual. Shrewsbury is a good start anyway.
Baird of the land Posted 30 December, 2020 Posted 30 December, 2020 Surprised the FA cup games haven't been postponed yet, given the covid situation. I can understand trying to keep the premier league going but mixing those bubbles with EFl and non league seems nuts. If they do go ahead i wonder will Saints put out a complete reserve side.

What s the issue as long as everyone is tested prior

Saint_John Posted 31 December, 2020 Posted 31 December, 2020 Shrewsbury games this weekend has just been called off because of 2 players testing positive. https://www.shropshirestar.com/sport/football/shrewsbury-town-fc/2020/12/31/shrewsbury-v-crewe-alexandra-postponed-due-to-second-positive-town-covid-19-case/ rest of squad in isolation.
Appy Posted 31 December, 2020 Posted 31 December, 2020 FA Cup will be carnage with EFL and non league clubs not being tested playing Premier League clubs.

They all get tested prior to a match so PL bubble or EFL bubble isn t any different.
