Is it really too much to ask for a home game against some third division team just once?
Not the usual away to a PL team shit that we normally get.

Will never happen.
Heavens above!
The game's paymasters will never accept a team like us still in with a shout at the business end of the competition.
So what sort of team do you consider Crystal Palace to be? You know, the FA Cup holders.
They're not media darlings and there was zero interest in the final where I was at the time.
Couldn't find a bar showing it. There must have been some, but I couldn't find one.
Not good for the sponsors who pay for and control the game.

Would be interested to see how many times we've drawn Man Utd over the years.

Next.

Premier league team away nailed on. Most likely one in the top half right now.
Sunderland away is my bet.
Bloody good shout that. Exactly the sort of draw we tend to get. I'm feeling a Liverpool (again) or a Chelsea.

Seriously though do we need the extra games in the cup where there’s a possibility of injuries/ suspensions with our squad, apart from some wins giving us some confidence I think this season is all about staying up.

Seeing as we avoided defeat at Old Trafford last night, we'll draw Man Utd away to ensure that we lose there at least once this season.

Well im hoping we can get at the very least, get a good way into this competition and give us all some hope and something to look forward too, its also our only hope of Europe next season in the unlikely event we can win it, as realistically we aint finishing top 8
Let's have some easy if boring fixtures against much lesser opposition to get to the 5th/6th round, then when in smelling distance of Wembley, we are well up for it and finally "ts our year"
You know it makes sense
