am i the only one who thinks its not a bad draw

[Mr Everyone]

spot on!! too many of our fans think we are incredible/immense/outstanding etc because we take 4000 to watford/london clubs/saints etc but its our first 5th round appearance in years against a prem club...we should be taking a lot if we think we have decent fans

Due to it being the 5th round of the FA cup, this game will attract a little more than Watford did, but less than Villa's 6K or so.

Judging by the Facebook updates, a few fair weathers appear underwhelmed!!

How many times have we played in the fifth round of the FA Cup in our history.Five is it? (1960, 1967, 1982, 1984, 1986), of which I saw the last three. Can't guarantee it will happen again soon, club in the ascendancy or not. Anyone who opts not to go needs to get a grip.

I'm with you mate, i know its not the best of places, or in fact one of the worst, but i am looking forward to this! It was exactly what i wanted, another ground to tick off, Premiership team and a decent distance where we should take a very good number!

If The Brittania was as good as Kenilworth Road my enthusiasm for the tie would be increased tenfold. Sadly, having never been, I suspect it isn't.

Is this the same Kenilworth Road which is falling apart and appears to of been built in the middle of someone's house?

I'm really looking forward to this one. Bar humbug to all those crying because we didn't draw their second clubs Chelsea or arsenal. Rubbish, we're in the last 16 away to premiership side. The Britannias a good stadium, some of the negative comments on here are embarrassing - who the feck do we think we are. Talk about glass houses! We play at withdean Ffs! Anyway, well remember losing up there not so long ago in an evening game. Their fans were very passionate , home of the naughty 40 always likely to be! But we might sneak a surprise, best thing is we are away at a bigger club and so that's one less game I have to attend at withdean!

Yep. You obviously haven't experienced the delights of stoke. It's basically 5 towns so the ground is in the middle of nowhere, the ground is one worst stadiums I've ever been to(along with kenilworth road) and their team is dirty although effective. We'll lose.

Spot on!

Err...........didn't we do something in 1983?
