The jacks could be heading down to Brighton, famous for its gay community, they'll like that, they can take over another gay bar

Would have liked to have won yesterday, just to keep fringe players fresh and competing, but not particularly bothered. Like Craig said yesterday, lets keep our eyes on the prize!

We wouldn't have a full stength side out for that. It would be a mix of bench warmers and kids with the odd first teamer thrown in. Plus at home so it would be a very good tie for the fringe players.

Remember we didn't play a full strength side at West Brom last year

I see those 4th round ties are due to be played on the 26th/27th Jan which was when we were meant to play Leicester and they won yesterday. So I wonder what date that match will be moved to? :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

I'm disappointed for Macclesfield.

I was hoping they'd draw Spurs, Man U/West Ham or Villa away for a payday or something.

Will be rubbish if wigan don't even win.

Actually think Macclesfield can beat them teams there on the day. Wigan blow hot and cold so hopefully Macclesfield catch them on an off day.

Good draw for cardiff aswell if you think about it !
Hull will need to put a decent team out against barnsley
Palace will be a full team against stoke then man city if they win
Leicester will need a full team against huddersfield
Only borough will be able to rest people probably so our rivals will be tireing themselves out

Have I got the dates completely wrong because no one else has mentioned our Leciester game needs to be moved now?

A good thing that some of our main league are still in it.

I believe We would have been ball number one instead of Crystal Palace so therefore would have drawn Man City at home

Brentford v Chelsea would be a good one if they beat Safend

No we would have been the same number as macclesfield were today.

The first pair of teams out of the hat today will be no 1 in the next draw, the second pair no 2 and so on, thats the system they use.
