We've only had a home tie in 5 of the last 20 domestic Cup draws!! (exc. the Semi-Finals)
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
[Albion] Round 4 , who do you want ?

- Start date
You really think there will be twice as many in the cup as the league? Is it 1992 again?

I'm in a minority of 1 who is chuffed with that draw. Only an hour and a half away from home, almost guarantees me an away ticket for the league game as many will not fancy it twice in 4 weeks and surely another 15 Europe points to be bagged.
Most importantly though, it's winnable and a few decent premier league sides are guaranteed to go.

Yes, for those wanting to build points for European adventure, it's the dream draw surely? Will sort the wheat!
Presumably it will have to be us on the Fri eve or Sat and Sheff Wed on the Sunday as both us and Sheff U have games the following Tue and I can't see them moving two games.
I reckon anyone who wants one will get one. Increased allocation for the cup as well.

Hoping our boys will recall how they contrived not to beat Sheffield Utd at the Amex, and look to make amends.

Accentuate the positives.
There aren't any.
The away fixture could work in our favour. They will have to come out at some point. They will, won't they?

Pretty uninspiring draw all round. Was hoping for more big draws for the smaller teams.
Crazy bad luck. And they’ve just said on comms that tonight is the first time that Man Utd have been drawn away since March 2021 (also excluding Wembley)
I'm going to hold out for cup kick off time.
Sunday ain't great, it's considerably better than Friday, but not as good as Saturday.

Happy with that. Could have been a lot worse. Hopefully fitter squad by then.

I cannot think that a lot of people will go to both so with transport issues and the league game being on television i was surmising that more would choose the cup game.
I did not take into account that with massive at home our cup game may be moved to Friday, that would certainly have an effect.

Am I the only one that doesn't hate it...
Rock bottom of the league. It's not glamourous, sexy, or particularly fun, but you'd fancy us.

If we’re not on telly we’ll surely be on Saturday for this reason. Weds v Cov surely Sunday.

I realised that I was just looking out of interest to see of they were screwed that weekend as well
RDZ seems to take this Cup seriously and will probably have a strong team out. Sheff Utd probably not, depending on if they seriously think they can possibly avoid relegation.
Good chance to progress and maybe a plum draw next round like Grimsby last season. I will probably find a way to watch it even if it's not on TV
