FA Cup 3rd Round Draw

[Paddingtonwolf]

We beat them at Anfield the last time we met in the cup...

Will be on TV, 2 weeks after playing them at home. How unsociable it is timewise will make my decision up as to whether I go or not.

Glad it wasn’t the circus that would have proceeded a game v WBA or Villa.

 

[PuntsWolf]

Big crowd, big atmosphere. Forget the FA cup, we’re not winning it. We could easily win this anyway. Would rather this than lose to someone shit and possibly dent confidence further.

 

[jd1981]

Just to add it won’t be another Friday night game, as we play palace on the Wednesday before.

Was very close (in ball number) to pulling out a Black Country derby - think WBA got drawn against ball 43!

My second team at least get a Premier Team, even if it's not one of the real glamour ties - Watford will not like playing on the pitch down there

 

[Parkins left foot]

Will be interesting to see who we play as we will have had Palace in the league only a few days before - realistically where we are now the league games are more important (though we will have a bit of a gap before the next one).

Staying here, which I think we will, then kicking on next year is the more relevant issue - real cup challenges can wait still we have established ourselves a bit more (don't think that we are incapable of beating Liverpool - just that it's not the most pressing issue right now)

Quite pleased with the draw, Liverpool won't see this as a huge priority with the league on their mind (they might, but mentally they may also have eyes elsewhere) so I think we'll have a chance. Regardless of TV moves, in a Bear-este fashion, I'd love potentially up-to 4 tickets for this one if numbers are going spare please...

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Liverpool have City away the match before. That will be their priority.

If we'd won a couple of more games over the last few weeks I think we may have taken it more seriously than we will. As it is, unless we have a major uplift in form it'll be the League Cup team.

Moved to Monday night, live on BBC1

4th round draw takes place immediately after our game from Molineux

 

[Tony Towner]

That's me out then.

 

[Parkins left foot]

Won't be able to do this so soon after the Palace game - especially as it is now on free TV

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Depends when the tickets go on sale for me. Pretty skint until payday.

 

[Pablowolf]

That's a ball ache. I may let some poor unfortunate have my seat...as long as they clean it afterwards.

It's a Cup game so you don't have a seat - just that S/T holders will be able to buy earlier than others (but not necessarily yours as it might already have been sold)

Parkin you are undoubtedly the most literal person on TWF [emoji4]

Can't quite work out whether that's a compliment or an insult :icon_biggrin:

Take it as the latter, but said with fondness [emoji6]
