What sort of allocation will we get for this, is it bigger than a league game like the FA Cup?

We'd be lucky to take 4k.

Are they still midweek in the 4th round?

Could be televised tbf. I'd imagine Man Utd v City on Weds; Arsenal v Reading Tuesday 25th. They tend to pick one all Prem clash and a Prem v lower ranked side. If we are on the box, 4K tops.

Edit: just seen half term mentioned; could well be closer to 6k then.

Well we'll see soon enough.

Just looked up the Arsenal fixtures, our game against them will be their 4th home game in just 10 days :shock:

Wow what a fantastic draw :roll:

A chance to see us get stuffed by Arsenal reserves again. Oh deep joy.

So, this'll be the 14th defeat in 14 games. At least we've got a 100% record in something.

Tinpot competition anyway.

I think we'll need two red cards to win this one.

You would think the televised games would be

West Ham v Chelsea
United v City

CountryRoyal Called it speaking to an Arsenal supporting mate earlier 8)



I'm actually fairly happy with that, especially away. At least this way when we lose I'd hope it wouldn't effect our form too much (assuming we're doing well then in the first place).


Nowhere does it say he's an Arsenal fan. Poor evidence right there.

Nah, they'll go four big clubs like Utd v City and Liverpool v Spurs, or two big clubs and a PL chump draw (substitute us for Spurs) over a middling PL club v a struggling PL club.

And our game is pretty much guaranteed goals and excitement.

Two big clubs who have no league titles between them in over quarter of a century? :lol:

Poor fishing Ian. I would think a troll like you would have stronger material than this.

"One day we will play you and not lose"

The insinuation being that we have lost every single game against them and AFAIK Arsenal are the only team to have a 100% record against us.

As to questioning the validity of my claim, I'm pretty sure the only person I can think of sad and lonely enough to lie about something like that is you :wink:
