As ever, GNev is absolutely right. Which lower league side can repeat the Bantams' success this season?

Good draw.

One we can win, and we can hardly complain about a draw that gives us the opportunity to send Hollowhead home bowed, demoralised and defeated by the mighty Bristol City.

Against any other div.3 club, this tie would be seen as relatively unimportant for Palace but not so sure Hollowhead will risk putting out a much weakened team to face the club he despises above all others.

I cant imagine, as somone said earlier that skelator will field a second string side...

the bloke hates us, he will field his strongest team, i have no doubts !!!

It will be a fantastic challenge for our young uns tho !

Not so sure. I'd imagine he'd view surviving in the Prem as a bigger priority than beating us.

Can't see Holloway risking his first team - he'd be more than happy to 'concentrate on the league' and make it look like he doesn't care - probably some underhand jibes lined up too.

Disappointed to get a team we have played a lot recently - Yoevil are at home, will that affect our tie?

As for Sky games, the should be rules against the same team being on tv 'x' amount of times in the cup, but it doesn't really matter to anyone outside of the clubs that aren't on TV.

Hopefully they'll try and play football though - would love to win and progress though
