FA CUP 4TH ROUND DRAW - MONDAY 19:50 (ish) (5 Viewers)

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Didn't read it mate.

Lol nah I just liked the bit about trying to go as far as possible and not acting like cucks to big teams.

I think he has a point that those that moan about game being gone are then moaning about drawing a team they could possibly beat over getting smashed Vs a giant

I'm in the middle though as I said in my first post. Ideally I want easy tie at home Vs minnow.

After that a giant at home for the experience.

Sheff wed away sits somewhere in the middle. But it's not end of world for me.

The main reason I like the cup is getting to face different opposition. Getting the same ones you’ll have played in the league twice in a month already is just a bit boring.

Could Wednesday give us a different end to allow us 15%? The away end is limited currently to 3700.

We certainly wouldn't get the Kop, they may stick us down one side, I would think it's unlikely though.

I agree. I just liked some of what he say to say!

We might be playing on a Thursday night or a Monday night.
Let's wait for the TV schedule to be announced.

Its BS that the PL clubs can draw against each other in the 4th round:

Fulham v Newcastle United
Sheffield United v Brighton & Hove Albion
Tottenham Hotspur v Manchester City

Any one of those clubs would have been a decent pay day for lower league clubs.

Disagree, you’d lose the novelty and make it even more unlikely clubs like us can dream of a cup run.

The more all PL ties the better IMO. Get some big clubs out and it might be interesting. Not arsed with watching us lose to Man City U23s so the proper players can turn up for the trophy a few rounds later thanks.

I mostly just really wanted to see us drawn against Man Utd so that McF could make that prick Fernandes cry as a parting gift.

When will we know who out Sheff Wed & Sheff Utd are playing on the Saturday and who’s playing on the Friday / Sunday. No chance the South Yorks police allow both to play at home on the same day

 

[Alex1987]

similar when are we likely to hear the ticket prices?

 

[HerneBayGaz]

Who's staying in Sheffield for a week?

A week, it's bad enough going up there for a day

Fucking hell, an 11:45 KO is nuts

Is that right or a typo, can't be kicking off at 11:45. I know it's not exactly the other side of the country for most people attending but that's going to be an early start and do the local businesses out of a lot of trade.

I had to double check before I commented, assumed that's what time the programme was starting but apparently it is KO time. It's even on the BBC Sport website

 

[Macca1987]

I would imagine they are erring on the side of caution if it's WBA vs Wolves, doesn't help out if Brentford get through and have to travel at that time on a Sunday

 

[shmmeee]

So is our game definitely Saturday 3pm then?

Hasn't been decided yet, will probably be later today, Sheff Wed drawn out first so might have the desicion of when they play

 

[ccfcricoh]

Sheff Utd play the Tuesday after so doubt that will get moved to the Sunday, leaves them on Friday night or us getting moved, hope we stay Saturday

Whats the ear;liest kick off time anyome can remember?

Am sure we played Man City on a sunday morning in 1986 just before Christmas, 2-2 draw was about 11am?

Where does that logic come from??

I'm pretty sure the last game is of the 84/85 season against Everton was a Sunday, 11:00 or 11:30 kick off.

Half their team still pissed

 

[Robinshio]

Everton was indeed 11.30
our 87 semi final kicked off at 12.15 on a Sunday as a note, this was the last year semi finals were not shown live on TV - but was shown "as live" around an hour after the game finished

oh yes the Paul Culpin goal...I believe it was a 12pm kick off but you may well be right.

It was and before the internet, I was a teenager on a camping holiday with my parents trying to find out if we had won, Mum and Dad never knew I sneaked up to home games on Saturdays so I said I was going for a walk and spent the time at a phone box calling Mercia sound to find out if we had won, pure idiocy and madness and also then disbelief when they told me the result, I thought they were lying to me.

I'm sure we had Lester 3-0, Chelsea and Birmingham 4-4 early kick offs in 86 too
