Villa Away

[seven stands]

Bolton v Sheff Utd/QPR

Accrington/Gillingham v Fulham

Notts County/Forest Green v Wigan

would all be better than arsenal v stoke

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Only one that I would agree is Bolton one.

Fulham will walk it, Wigan fans cant even be bothered with Wigan why would ANYONE ELSE.

 

[throbinson]

it's allways the big clubs on tv after the 2nd round, does get boring

The wigan game is the one out of those I would have picked.

Really? Why so?

For me its going to be a walk over and id rather see a tight game, plus Wigan are dull dull dull.

notts county or forest green two lowest ranked teams v a top flight team is what the fa cup is all about

But it has the least interest of most of the draw? two badly supported teams.

Is this safe enough info to book a non refundable advance train ticket on do ya think?

Is the Wolves v Scum a Sunday game?

Palarse fans want it to be on a Sunday so they can use it as an excuse when they only take less than a 1000 to the Midlands.

 

[Husty]

Wolves, Villa & WBA have all played on the same days before

Not with Brighton and palace both as away teams though I would imagine.

It's not a massive rivalry though is it, its hardly Leeds/Millwall!

If the Met can live with Leeds and Millwall being in the same vicinity I'm sure West Midlands can too.

I personally would LOVE us to play on the Sunday as it means I don't have to take Saturday night off work [self employed] but I'm not going to convince myself one of our games will be!

quite surprised brighton not on tv, i would have had money on it being on tv, still get more people to go to the game i suppose...

 

[simon195]

would be nice if the fa actually thought about the fans and annouced it early so could book the cheap train tickets!

Surely if Villa ticket office have confirmed it is Saturday at 3pm, then thats when it is....

I can understand if Birmingham were due to be at home on the same day, but Wolverhampton is a good 20 miles away from Birmingham, so I can't see it being much of a problem. I'm sure Wolves and Aston Villa would have both played at home on the same day in the past

It's not that bad for West Midlands Police, but it's the trouble that could be caused on the way up on the trains. BTP are the one's who should advise the FA about this.

FA thinking about fans? No chance!

engineering works on sunday if moved

Surely this one is down to the Police, or whoever might like the game moved? The FA have announced the kick off times and dates, it's not their call to get the game moved for other reasons...
