Here's the Southern half of the draw:

  2. AFC Wimbledon
  3. Brentford
  4. Brighton & Hove Albion
  5. Bristol City
  6. Bromley
  7. Cambridge United
  8. Cardiff City
  9. Charlton Athletic
  10. Coventry City
  11. Fulham
  12. Millwall
  13. Norwich City
  14. Oxford United
  15. Plymouth Argyle
  16. Reading
  17. Southampton
  18. Swansea City
  19. West Ham United
  20. Wolverhampton Wanderers

Listen you creepy old raspberry l go to support the team just like my dad through thick and thin no matter who owns the club!?
You on other hand clearly just hate Sullivan and want the club to collapse because Sullivan is you're nemesis 
I bought the new shirt cost £67,50 with season ticket discount and hope that pisses you off big time
Makes absolutely NO difference to the fact that you're handing money over to, and therefore directly supporting, Sullivan.

You can throw out as many "reasons" for going/buying the latest club shop produce as you like but the fact still remains that you are directly financially supporting Sullivan.

The only clear thing is that I don't approve of Sullivan's management of the club and that I am putting off buying another season ticket until he moves on. Everything else that is "clear" to you is only "clear" in your pretty little head.

Oh, and the timing and manifestations of your grudge is getting very "Manuelesque". Maybe you should both link up to try and uncover the reason(s) you can't avoid being triggered so easily.
Ha ha you're putting off buying another season ticket....really???
How you going to get to games from the mud hut?
Mind you the raspberry section is a good view and l believe very reasonable season ticket discount 
No surprise on you being clued up on all things raspberry. At least I'm not shovelling money into Sullivan's sky and trying to pretend I'm not.

Yes. Yes he does have exactly that.

Anyone who hands their money over to Sullivan's company is supporting Sullivan. No amount of spin can make it otherwise.

How come somebody as streetwise as yourself can't grasp that basic fact?

You clearly DO support Sullivan - you willingly and freely hand over your cash to him when attending every home game...and fuck what the future might bring.

I'd be very surprised if us v Millwall is allowed to be pulled from the hat, so the midget's dream round be away at Charlton, Fulham, Bromley or Brentford - where the cup runneth unders.

About a 20% chance of us playing another London team this round.

At first I thought it was because they had to have an even number of Premier League clubs in each draw. But no, there are 11 PL teams in the draw, so why the fuck are Wolves in the Southern draw? What a load of shit.
Perhaps they just take the 20 (or whatever is half of who is in the draw) southernmost teams and group them together as the ‘southern’ half.

I suppose Birmingham still had to play Sheffield United tonight. That’s also the problem of having the draw before all the games have played out.

In other news, El Khannouss or however you spell his name missed a penalty for Leicester as they crash out. Patrick Kelly missed the chance of getting the winning penalty for Barnsley but they still squeezed through.

Maybe more northern teams in than southern, seems odd

It’s not the very worst but it’s pretty much the worst outcome. Only away to one of the B’s or Fulham is worse. 
I would have been alright with Fullham away. Might have been a harder game but easier to get to and not a bad away day.

We always get the likes of Man U, Liverpool and City so No I'm not bothered getting Wolves away...we don't have a bad record there either

Apparently we've never lost to them in a cup game, maybe they'll be more pissed off..

when you think of all the lower division clubs in the hat and that we could have been at home. 

I swear we get drawn away about 75% of the time.

If we're going to try and win a cup we'll have a lot harder opposition than Wolves, and we're shit at home so away is a bonus, can't say I'm bothered at all.. They're shit..
