Pick your five TV games from the Fourth Round

[Acker79]

Norwich v Luton - non-league v premier league it's the FA cup dream!
Millwall v Aston Villa - Good chance of an upset
Crystal Palace/Stoke v Man City - Either the most attractive all premier league tie, or Palace will have upset Stoke, and parallels will be drawn to them beating Man Utd, so another possible upset

Then it's dependant on replays, for me:
-Macclesfield v Wigan would the FA cup living he dream match, Macclefiesld Bournemouth not such a draw
-Brighton v Arsenal would probably be good draw for possible upset, and national interest (largely due to arsenal), Swansea would be another chance of upset, but not sure there's enough of a draw for the neutral
-west ham/man u v fulham/blackpool - man u games are often on TV. Biggest club in the country, ITV and ESPN don't often get to show them so will take any chance
-southend/brentford would also be a good shout for "living the dream", and with their result againt QPR, could be seen as a possible upset.

I'm going to vote for Man U, because they are probably favourites to beat West Ham.

Oldham v Liverpool
Leeds United/Birmingham City v Tottenham Hotspur
Brighton & Hove Albion v Swansea City/Arsenal
West Ham United/Manchester United v Fulham/Blackpool
Crystal Palace/Stoke City v Manchester City

But the question was which 5 ties would YOU choose to televise, not which 5 ties do you think will be televised.

This. Clearly lots of Bozza sycophants on here who have failed to pick him up on that!!

 

[leigull]

Have gone for what I think will be chosen as opposed to what I would choose:


Norwich City v Luton Town
West Ham United/Manchester United v Fulham/Blackpool
Macclesfield Town v Wigan Athletic/Bournemouth
Leeds United/Birmingham City v Tottenham Hotspur
Southend United/Brentford v Chelsea

Dependant on Man Utd and Wigan winning their replays

 

[Rich Suvner]

Good point well made.

Swap the Leeds/Brum vs Spurs with the United (or West Ham) game then.

Don't be silly, the Spurs tie is definitely going to be televised.

 

[c0lz]

Oldham v Liverpool
Leeds United/Birmingham City v Tottenham Hotspur
Brighton & Hove Albion v Swansea City/Arsenal
West Ham United/Manchester United v Fulham/Blackpool
Southend United/Brentford v Chelsea

 

[Hiney]

Oldham v Liverpool
Macclesfield v Wigan/Bournemouth (only if Wigan go through)
Leeds/Birmingham v Spurs
Brighton v Swansea/Arsenal
Palace/Stoke v Man City (only if Palace go through)
Southend/Brentford v Chelsea (if one of the above goes tits up)

There is no way the Norwich game will be on TV. If it was at Luton it would be but not with the Prem side at home.
I know ITV insist on showing Man Utd (sponsorship/viewing figures) but even they might give them a miss this time (probably not actually).
Think we will be on ESPN on the Friday evening.

Oldham Athletic v Liverpool
Millwall v Aston Villa
Leeds United/Birmingham City v Tottenham Hotspur
Brighton & Hove Albion v Swansea City/Arsenal
Southend United/Brentford v Chelsea

 

[Nathan]

The games will be picked for tv before the replays happen.

 

[Tony Meolas Loan Spell]

ITV faves Man Yoo and the champions of europe will definitely feature (provided they go thru)

Re not showing man utd at home - they have only had 5 games since 93 in the FA cup that haven't been televised. Pretty shocking really.

Was our game with Newcastle last season chosen before or after the Wrexham replay

Before
Albion v Toon on TV From The Argus)

Article posted on the 12th, our replay was on the 18th.

 

[HawkTheSeagull]

Norwich vs Luton
Macclesfield vs Wigan/Bournemouth (only if Wigan get through the replay)
Millwall vs Aston Villa
Palace/Stoke vs Man City
Brentford/Southend vs Chelsea

Cant see room for us, maybe if the Macclesfield isnt shown then we could.

 

[ManOnTheRun]

Me:

Oldham v Liverpool
Leeds United/Birmingham City v Tottenham Hotspur
Brighton & Hove Albion v Swansea City/Arsenal
West Ham United/Manchester United v Fulham/Blackpool
Southend United/Brentford v Chelsea

^^ What he said ...

 

[rcf0712]

This draw is great news for all of us in Australia as it almost gaurantees The Albion being on TV live again for round 4 - with ESPN using 3 channels for the 3rd round I'm extremely confident we'll be on one of them live for round 4, whichever team we play.

 

[Stat Brother]

When you take out the games that definitely won't make it to TV, there isn't a whole lot left.

 

[simmo]

Norwich vs Luton
Macclesfield vs Wigan/Bournemouth (only if Wigan get through the replay)
Millwall vs Aston Villa
Palace/Stoke vs Man City
Brentford/Southend vs Chelsea

Cant see room for us, maybe if the Macclesfield isnt shown then we could.

Norwich vs Luton
Macclesfield vs Wigan/Bournemouth (only if Wigan get through the replay)

Absolute classics. If only Wigan can get through that replay, if only! Norwich v Luton I can't wait

Brighton v Arsenal (and even Swansea) is a far better game than both these, I am sure nearly all would agree, whether Brighton biased, as we are, or not.

 

[Sam Ovett]

Brighton v Swansea would be a cracking game

 

[JBenno]

Think I read somewhere that Man-Ure have had their last 16 consecutive FA cup games telvised or something like that!
