Chelsea, as we'll be out in the first round regardless, so might as well save the embarrassment of going out to some numpty team.

West Brom
Scunthorpe
Cheltenham
Oxford
Mansfield
Stockport
Port Vale
Oldham
Brentford
Torquay
Barnsley
Chester

pompey at home is better than pompey away, we have a chance, but with harry going back it might give them the kick up the arse they need

Torquay got Birmingham at home, good draw but no chance of an upset im affraid

We just have no luck in cups do we? Season being how it is a nice exciting run to the QFs would have been cool, but no. We'll lose to Pompey, it'll be rubbish, no-one will turn up, the c**t with the bell will be there. :(

no luck? Tammworth have beaten 2 league teams away from home in the 1st 2 rounds and get a trip to stoke, thats no luck

we're at home, with as good a chance as anyone of getting into the next round, providing BFJ decides to actually take the greatest cup competition in the world seriously

everyone quit your damn moaning you people wouldn't know a decent cup draw if it smacked you in the face and knocked your f**king teeth out. we're at home to a Premiership team and one that we stand a damn good chance of beating theblue hell out of. we could've got a shitty away draw to some numpty lower league team but no we've been given a cushty home tie to Premier League opposition so everyone shut your pie holes before I have to kick all ya punk asses.

We'd probably win away at Scunthorpe though, we'll lose to Portsmouth however bad they are in the league because we are worse.

James my man you got it right there.

Home draw to either Portsmouth or Sunderland was the perfect solution. We get a 24-25k gate and a good chance of winning and putting together a little earner of a run. A win against prem opposition would do the team's confidence no harm either. could see it goingto a replay as well :lol:
