Blackburn have a fair draw with West Ham away.

 

[Unknown Pleasures]

Would be interesting if Millwall beat Everton and played Chelsea.

 

[Eddie.]

Poor Everton.

 

[Macca_]

My lads got the worst draw possible for them. Away to a talentless team that rely on kicking the cr*p out of their opponents :lol: Big Sam has that as his only tactic when playing a more skillful side. And it more often then not works!

It's crazy that 9 of the 32 games need to go to a replay, especially the likes of Premier League teams versus non-league teams. One of the most notable is Man U v Burton Albion who are only some 100 places below them on the pyramid.

 

[Raider Ultra]

Urgh, what a crap draw for Palace. Why do we get drawn away against crap teams in dirty northern sh*tholes every year? Sigh...

Could be worse, could be Brighton

it just goes to show how good this cup can be.
it also show the competitness of football

compare that to other sports and it is not common eg: if they did it with union or leage it would end up different

 

[lolesi]

Please Millwall V ChelseA

RIOTS

Exactly, it really frustrates me that the best I get of the FA cup is the reports in the newspapers and the highlights on Toyota World Sport. I'd massively like to see more football (soccer) on TV - even if it was serie A or La Liga or the Bundeslige or whatever from last year. A good one would be a Swiss or Belgian league that they basically delayed by a year. Most of us wouldn't have a clue how the comp went so it would be like watching live footy in a way.

 

[Raider Ultra]

Get ESPN, they show pretty much any soccer under the sun (Bar the Championship). Sharkie, accurate comment re: Croydon, one of southern England's true sh*tholes. A bit sad as when I used to live there it was a top area, oh well...

 

[BlindMan]

damn thats a bugger u cant get it, cause all the live matches in the fa cup i saw on tv where crackers, luton v liverpool, leicester v tottenham and burton v man utd, showing what a great cup the f.a. cup is.

 

[juggalo_strit]

I read somewhere that in the next round West Ham V Blackburn is a lunchtime kickoff over there so we'll get to witness the might of the rovers once again on our screens

 

[BlindMan]

awsome, and i hate west ham,
i may support wigan football team, but i like blackburn rovers tough style, and robbie savage is a favourite player of mine, and ofcourse managed by the great mark 'sparky' hughes

 

[Raider Ultra]

Wigan, how any club can only get 12000 for a cup semi final is beyond me.

 

[BlindMan]

yeh i dont know its not usually that low for premiership

 

[brendothejet]

the Bundeslige or whatever from last year. A good one would be a Swiss or Belgian league that they basically delayed by a year. Most of us wouldn't have a clue how the comp went so it would be like watching live footy in a way.

PLease tell me that is a joke!?!?!?!

Delayed by a year soccer would have to be the dumbest idea ever.
