Rags at Derby is probably the most interesting tie. Hopefully they'll get ripped apart.

Arsenal at home for a change. Stuffy gets never seem to get drawn away.

I'm looking forward to going to Wycombe.

So from a tv point of view If we get Villa, all prem tie, we've already been held there and they have several ex City players so Derby, Scouse v Hammers, MK and Colchester games will probably be on then.

Rags are nailed on for TV. It will be the 49th fa Cup game in a row that they have been televised.

Thank god

Quite happy with that as I'm in the cup scheme and had we got a home draw they'd have took the last of my cash with 3 days before payday haha

We are at Sunderland on the Tuesday after the cup weekend so presumably we'll be playing on Saturday or poss Friday night for telly, if we're to be on the box

Or 17.30 Sunday afternoon.

Villa probably easier

Not sure the media will cope well with a Derby cup upset.

Not a bad draw but our record at Villa aint great.

I thought villa were our favourite team to play. I am sure we have beaten villa more than any other team?

66 wins for us against their 53 in overall matches.

At their shit hole we have won 18 compared to their 36

It's all of the above plus Everton's tie that are being shown. We have the rarity of a 3pm Saturday ko.

I hope we get Villa as it's an away day i like.

Surely their focus will be on league safety so hoping they play second string

When I looked on the FA Cup website this morning they had'nt put a kick off time next to our tie so not sure what they are playing at.

We have. And, at the risk of being proved an idiot, I think it is the best draw. Wouldn't fancy the Wycombe swamp!

Was just catching some of the post match bollox on bt after the dippers game and they mentioned they're showing the dippers at Norwich this weekend and it occurred to me that they seem to be on live a fair bit at the moment. I checked the dippers fixture list which also tells you which channel they are on. Their 3 remaining games in January are being shown live so going into February that will be a grand total of 8 dippers games in all competitions since the start of the season that have NOT been shown either on Sky, BT or BBC. Thats staggering. I'm so glad I don't subscribe. I'd be pretty pissed off paying and having the dippers and rags on all the time.
