Which 3rd Round Fa Cup Games will be on TV?

[northampton_seagull]

I think

Man City v Man Utd

and

Arsenal v Leeds (ITV LOVE Leeds)

 

[BHAFC_Pandapops]

yeah, that's where Granada are based, eh?

 

[Poyetry In Motion]

Manc derby is a no brainer for live tv....I'd quite like to see ( apart from us obviously ) Spurs v Cheltenham ( potential giant killing / cricket score )

 

[gjh1971]

Bristol Rovers v Aston Villa

 

[Weststander]

I think

Man City v Man Utd

and

Arsenal v Leeds (ITV LOVE Leeds)

If so, the Derby is interesting and even,

but the second televised tie is an uneven game with home advantage to the big spenders (Walcoot, Van Persie, Arteta & Co) versus a team on a Ken Bates budget. Utterly pointless unless you are one of the tiny proportion of the UK who support Arsenal's foreign legion.

 

[DaChiken14]

Man City vs Man United, Arsenal vs Leeds for definate

 

[Dan Gleeballs]

No doubt the Manc derby but a sneaky feeling we could see Everton face the mighty Tamworth on the TV

 

[pseudonym]

I think

Man City v Man Utd

and

Arsenal v Leeds (ITV LOVE Leeds)

The possibility of our game being changed to accommodate tv is 1 in 3, as S4C welsh channel will have a live game,depends which one they want.

Brighton & Hove Albion v Wrexham

Barnsley v Swansea City

West Bromwich Albion v Cardiff City

I don't think they will go for swansea, so out of cardiff or wrexham i bet my bottom dollar they choose Wrexham which will mean we have an early kick off on the saturday.

Rovers-v-Villa. End of this is the Cup.

 

[Leekbrookgull]

did54,i dont think SC4 cover Wrexham them being a BsQ Prem team ?

 

[Turkey]

My guess is,

Man Utd vs Man City
Chelsea vs Portsmouth
Arsenal vs Leeds

As even though Chelsea/Arsenal will both win the broadcasters love the opportunity to show them live. Plus Pompey have the recent history as winners.

Fourth game hard to call, I'd guess Rovers vs Villa, but could easily be Birmingham vs Wolves or Sheff Wed vs West Ham.

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

Chelsea v P*rtsm**th is a cert as it's a repeat of the 2010 final.

 

[slimes]

i hope tottenham v cheltenham will be on tv

 

[TS90]

i hope tottenham v cheltenham will be on tv

Why?

 

[blue'n'white]

The Manchester derby is almost a no brainer - I reckon that is a cert probably for the late Sunday game
I reckon the return of Tony Pulis to Gillingham is odds on too
For the others I reckon they'll go for high v low which brings in Everton v Tamworth, Chelmsford/Macc v Bolton, Fleetwood/Yeovil v Blackpool, BHA v Wrexham and Spurs v Cheltenham. TV loves a potential giant killing
Whatever - I shall be at the Albion
