FA Cup Third Cup - who do you want?

[Osleroad]

Solihull get Arsenal at home if they beat Fleetwood in the replay

Thought they played Blackpool???

 

[Manorman]

Brentford Away. Great memories of Roofe's goal there.

63-64 great memories of Billy Calder!

 

[Johnf]

Winnable game close to home
Could be worse

 

[RyanioBirdio]

Really wanted Woking away.

 

[Leysboy]

Underwhelmed but we will give them a game.

Some proper cup ties in that draw.

Thought they played Blackpool???

Oops. Same thing though.

Ah well that’s that then

Brentford are plummeting down the Championship table - six defeats in the last seven games
and many Bees fans’ want manager Thomas Franke sacked.

If the match were played tomorrow, I'd be tempted to give us a fighting chance. Something's gone a bit weird at Brentford after a good start, and the FA Cup seems a good opportunity to take advantage of teams above you in bad form - see Swansea in 2016. Let's see where both teams are in a month though. Real shame Brannigan can't play, would have enjoyed seeing how he fares against Championship level opposition given his recent form.

I reckon we'll get away to a lower half Championship side (possibly from Lancashire) - Bolton, Preston, maybe Wigan or Blackburn

Right League, Wrong Location

 

[Osleroad]

On the list of super annoying things must be the running commentary with the draw...like for the casual viewer who thought they'd see what this cup thingy was all about.... I mean like we don't already know who these teams are and where they play!!

From our last trip there. Some helpful goalkeeping definitely assisted us but Roofe’s finish is what we all remember. That game was a real catalyst for some exceptional away performances that season.

If this was a MApp League 1 side I’d say we would have a fighting chance. Under KR we’re not quite there but it’s not beyond the realms of possibility of us winning it.

Plus there aren’t many opportunities to visit Griffin Park left. Worth going before it goes. One of my favourite London grounds.

Man united v Reading is a given

 

[bazzer9461]

I suppose this glamour tie will be on Saturday afternoon so no chance of TV coverage, on another note Brannagan’s goal has been selected for the FA cup goal of the 2

 

[bazzer9461]

Should get at least 3,000 tickets

 

[BigAlan]

Brentford currently live on sky at WBA, there not very good at defending so far.

 

[stokeu]

Should get at least 3,000 tickets

but we wont take that many

 

[bazzer9461]

but we wont take that many

Probably not

 

[Ox4Eva]

but we wont take that many

Bet we do!

63-64 great memories of Billy Calder!

My Dad told me about this one. 26,000 for an FA Cup 4th round replay at Griffin Park and Oxford winning 2-1 in the pouring rain.
