Dull draw but then, no more boring than any other game at the Gate in months.

 

Chance to have a few beers in the bar pre/post match at least. You never know, they may put the commentary on for the evening match this time. Stranger things have happened, such as our believing we'd go up less than a year ago.

Great draw. A repeat of the 1920 FA Cup Semi Final at Stamford Bridge which City lost 2-1 effectively with 9 men as two players were injured. Some people have been waiting 99 years to get revenge. At last!

Remember it well, Richard Dryden at fault for both goals if I remember correctly!

Congrats HoC, I think you've found the ties most/only marketable angle!

Hope we progress, could be light relief for everyone. And we did stuff them on their last visit here.

Lee Johnson will call it "a free hit, if you like" which in reality means it will be the perfect game for him to give debuts to all his new January transfer window signings and discover what absolute bluffers Mark Ashton has dug up. There'll be a French striker who can't trap a bag of cement, a "seriously highly thought of" 8-stone teenage winger that's only ever played 5-a-side, and a Swedish 12 year old who suffers from uncontrollable home-sickness. We'll get battered by Huddersfield, LJ will say he's "encouraged" but that players will take time to adapt to his "identity, if you like", before sending them all out on loan to League Two clubs for the remainder of the season before you can say "Fourth round draw".

This would be funny if there wasn’t some likelihood of this becoming true. :laugh:

Brilliant.............there's a potential sit-com in this to rival Father Ted?
