It was regarding the absurd notion from SBT that it would be a 'great atmosphere ' nothing to do with Doug

It will be a better atmosphere than the majority of the league games.

We need to get up there and provide some opposition to the huge wall of noise from the Wednesday end.

Scoreline permitting.

Scoreline permitting.

Absolutely.

 

[Potbellypig]

What a turn around from last season to this though. Great draw for us last year and we could play our fringe players and still feel very confident of turning these over. Wednesday should be massive favourites this year.

Sorry for suggesting a Saturday evening kickoff with the biggest away crowd of the season so far might be a good atmosphere

Give it a few months and you’ll be back to setting up a GoFundMe for FA Cup tickets

Didn't people say nobody would bother going to the Plymouth game too?

 

[clint van damme]

Can't see it being a good crowd myself.
Think that kick off time hasn't helped.

If they did they're idiots, Boxing Day is always one of if not the biggest crowd of the season whoever we play

Not feeling any excitement about this one whatsoever.

Rest anyone carrying any kind of knock, but other than that keep the defence and keeper the same. I'd start rapha and play Simms at CF. Probably go with a midfield of Eccles, Rudoni and Torp.

 

[peteCCFC]

Looking forward to this.

I love a cup match, can't wait. I think we have a decent chance to get through this one. Similar standard to us and we're at home. I know they beat us earlier in the season but I still think we can do this. We played well in parts against Norwich and I think we can do again here. I hope Sakamoto is back in.

Buzzing for this, one off tie decided on the day, 6pm decent for beers, huge away following.

We need the performance and result as a club right now. Respect to those turning up.

Wed are a lot better than us .

I would say they're much better than us this season.

Anything can happen on the day and most Championship teams these days don't field their full strength team for early cup rounds.

 

[JSL]

The thing with cup ties, its win or lose. There is no point in going for a draw. Therefore we need to score so playing one up top is not much use. Two up front please, and lets go for it

 

[JohnWH]

2-0 Simms + Fabio

 

[ceetee]

Don't think so, got moved for international TV.

Of all the bars, in all the world, there must be someone who wants to watch

 

[Balli001]

Is this game on Sky?

No FA Cup games are on Sky. They always split the games over the weekend. Basically the shitty ones are the late kick off slots

 

[oscillatewildly]

Does anybody know if there will be POG for this tie?

Does anybody know if there will be POG for this tie?

Not going to be a sell out, so would've thought so.

Agree a better season so far but this is a one off match in our City and I hope we send 5000 Wednesday fans home without anything to cheer about.

Does anybody know if there will be POG for this tie?

You would hope so, but it's probably worth a quick email to the ticket office to confirm mate.
