Alfreton 0-0 Walsall at half time

It isn't impossible of course but you'll need a few upsets and the big boys to face each other. And then, as above, it's likely one of the mid-table teams would win it. When the 2008 winners won the FA Cup, the other semi-finalists were three Championship teams! As well as cheating, they got lucky in that aspect.

Swansea have sacked their manager and Nathan Jones is the frontrunner apparently! Could make our Boxing Day against them very interesting indeed.

Hoedt own goal and red card would be nice

BBC and ITV take turns each year to host the draw, so I think the scheduling is up to them

Yeah definitely. I can understand if we sing it against Swansea given that his goal sent them down but it was hardly like he even was an important player for us like MLT or Lambert

Replace I'm Blue with James Bree. James Bree da ba dee da ba di, I can see the Northam rocking already

That's what worries me. I hope sort of that we get a decent Premier League team in the cup and we can see how we adapt (or not).

1.30pm

We would need to change our tactics and buy at least 5 starting players - LB, CB, CM, winger and striker for starters.

We'll win, and I expect trouble in town after the game

First half was pretty even, second half we were well on top. Deserved the win imo.

The attitude was so much better once we scored. We actively looked for the second goal and as a result we weren't sustained to any periods of pressure from Bristol City like we were at Huddersfield. We didn't get the second goal which would have killed the game but the intent was there.

That's the version we come out to at St Mary's.

He massively overpaid

I don't mind the Fratton Park is falling down chant, but the last two away games it's been non stop, and it's getting a bit weary now. We need more chants about our players. Kyle Walker Peters deserves on, and I heard a great one about Adam Armstrong at Stoke away (the same one as the England Harry Kane chant) but not heard it since.

Should win this, another early home goal and hopefully this time we press on and get a few. 3-0

I think there is a player in there. He was pretty good when he came on against Hull and was involved in the goal. But then at Preston he was terrible. I don't think we should write him off just yet but if Ballard comes good that's another one ahead of him in the pecking order. Hopefully we get someone shit in the FA Cup and he can play 90 minutes

No reason to change a winning team. I don't see who can justifiably be dropped. I suspect for the two homes games there may be some rotation to keep things fresh.

Good, we need more arrogant players on the pitch, rather than the ones we've had recently feeling sorry for themselves after another defeat. I liked the comment about us as a club getting back to where we belong.

That FA Cup win will always have an asterisk next to it.

Hopefully we get near to 3000

I am incredibly shocked and surprised that Harry Redknapp could be involved in something like this.

My Irish friend texted me this - Bazunu 10/10 performance. Manning was complete shit and wondered how he played for 90 mins... Sounds familiar
