collier Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 Sorry but not a good draw for us. They score goals for fun in the championship and we leak goals like a sieve, at least its home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

22A Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 Rochdale v Leeds could be a TV game. The reason is that Greater Manchester Police won't let Leeds play in their area on a Saturday due to the fan's behaviour. Even when Leeds were in League 1 the away game at Oldham if not midweek, had to be Friday night or Sunday afternoon. I'll stick my neck out here; Watford at home is winnable (unlike Chelsea away). Then in round 4 or 5 we get to maintain our 20 year sequence. 1974 - that Tuesday win at Leeds after a home draw, 1994 that Tuesday win at Liverpool after a home draw. 2014 - ?????

Northern Red Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 The reaction of the players to the draw made me laugh. All stood huddled round the TV in expectation, then Watford came out and they all just went "ugh" and walked off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nogbad the Bad Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 Watford is a good draw, a beatable team at home is about the best we could ask for. Anyone who wants a big club away is just putting money before progression. The F.A.Cup is about glory and getting through as many rounds as possible. We can make plenty of money by progressing a few rounds - to likely get hammered at Arsenal or Man.Utd in a half empty PL stadium isn't my idea of a glorious exit. Anyone at home is my F.A. Cup motto - at AshtonGate, if Cotterill brings the spirit back to team and fans, anything can happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City Rocker Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 Anyone who wants a big club away is just putting money before progression. I think for most fans it's about the occasion, the day out, more so than the money, which is a bonus. That night at Anfield in '94 remains one of the all time great moments for all those of us who were there. A trip to Old Trafford, The Emirates or Stamford Bridge, regardless of the result, would be one of those games you'll remember forever. We haven't had many of those recently! That said, I'm happy enough with Watford at home, even though my first reaction was the same as the City players! Whether we have a realistic chance of progressing to round 4 I guess depends on what sort of run of results we have in December. For now, I feel optimistic.

Superjack Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 The only (living) football supporting relatives that I have are Watford fans... ... so apart from one of the 'big boys' I could not have asked for better.

Especially for a 'bluenose' when it comes to Merseyside. Best football night of my life. 'Drink Up Thee Zider' has never sounded so good. (As a footnote, the day after was also the time that I stopped 'hating' Liverpool... I obviously still don't 'like' them, but they were fantastically gracious in defeat, starting with the Kop's standing ovation for our team and continuing with their supporters kind comments the next day) Up the Toffees though! ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MATT BCFC Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Think I am the only person pleased with this draw as the misses supports them. Got a tenner on with her old man that we will beat them. Would have been better for me if was an away tie but oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
