Chelsea away would offer some superb opportunities for wind up's in my house.

I would like:

Chasetown in the 4th
Havant & Waterlooville in the 5th
Cambridge United in the 6th

Thank you please.

After that, I won't much care who we play in the semi.
 


My mum went on a stadium tour of the Emirates last season and came back saying something like (and I can't remember the exact figure) that Arsenal do not even give 10% of their capacity for away teams.

This from the Internet football guide

Away fans are housed in the lower tier of the South East corner of the stadium. The normal allocation for away fans will be 3,000 tickets, (capacity 60,432) but this can be increased for cup games. Although fans will have big padded seats and plenty of leg room, the lower tier of the stadium is quite shallow (unlike the upper tiers which have plenty of height between rows), meaning that the view might not be as good as you would expect from a new stadium

Just wait for the ticketing fiasco.................................

That's for league games though. There are strict FA rules on the % that has to be offered for FA Cup games, and I think it is either 10 or maybe even 15%. Remember that even 10% of the Emirates is over 1000 more than our average home attendance.

Having already brought a train ticket to Huddersfield and not realising until after that it’s fifth round weekend. I would prefer a big team away where we can gallantly lose 1-0, or an easy tie and then get Huddersfield in the fifth round (wonder what the odds of that are?)

But saying that if we beat someone like Liverpool i probabily wouldn't care about the lost money.

If we're not away at a Championship club I'll be quite happy....Norwich, Stoke, Ipswich, Plymouth etc would be shit.

For me, any away game in the Midlands of Manchester/Liverpool area would be ideal.

I will go for Birmingham away
