Macc away please! I work with a few Macc STH’s and it’s local. The only issue is that if we draw them we’re out.

[Pamplemousse]

Not too many localish ones left.

Brighton maybe if they beat Man Utd, but next up you have 5 London teams left (Fulham, Brentford, Chelsea, Arsenal, and either West Ham or QPR), Bristol City and Oxford. Swindon another potential one if they beat Salford. All the rest are all based in East Anglia, Midlands or the North.

Burton, Grimsby or Macclesfield away please. I’d like a new ground. 

[Mattio]

It’ll be Palace again, oh wait…

[davefizzy14]

A home draw against lower league opposition would be the preference.

Burton new ground and new Manager/Saints team will do.

[SNSUN]

I'll go for Newcastle at home. TV game, Ramsdale unavailable against his parent club despite his penalty saving heroics.

You know it’s gonna be the longest away trip possible

Liverpool

Everton out too. If Liverpool lose tomorrow we might just get a by into the fifth round.

[Dr Who?]

Looking for away of course

Wigan, Grimsby, Burnley, Macclesfield, Burton, Hull, Leeds, Mansfield. Ideally Macclesfield, Burton, Hull or Mansfield, as I have been to the others, but my son has not been to any of these. 

 

[Andy Hill]

Any team from any division will be a massive challenge for this lot of no hopers.

[ErwinK1961]

Hull away.

Burton or Macclesfield particularly appealing having proper terraces for the away end , would be nice to have that again, none of this allocated spot, get there early secure a good vantage point, send kids down the front , marvellous

4th round is on Valentines day so hopefully i get the chance to take my missus up the Arsenal.

[franniesTache]

Is the next round midweek again? If it's not then any of these away

Vale

Macclesfield

Grimsby

Burton

Mansfield

Salford

As they're the only ones i've not done (technically haven't done Wrexham but we'll do that later in the season)

Must be due a home draw, 4 cup draws so far this season have all been away

No Saturday 14th Feb (or weekend of) , replaces Leicester away in schedule 

[Willo of Whiteley]

I’m going to take a different approach to this - I don’t think it matters who we get 😂

We'll probably draw Leicester away in the cup.

[Stripey McStripe Shirt]

I have little doubt that it'll be either Ipswich or Norwich away.

[Stripey McStripe Shirt]

Leicester home.

[macca155]

Ha ha Leicester again

Not far off😁

[LGTL]

Good god. 

[davefizzy14]

It's a home draw, I'm happy with that 😊

[AlexLaw76]

Home match, for El Crappico

[beatlesaint]

Ironic given we were away to them in the league that weekend 😂

[whelk]

Wonder what time that will be given. No tv appeal

[die Mannyschaft]

Could be worse. Time for the coaching staff and board to read how to play football books and get us playing football. 

[Saint Fan CaM]

Get a decent striker in and we’ll thrash ‘em 9-0. Or something like that. Err…

[S-Clarke]

Our Leicester league match was postponed, so we could play Leicester.

[LGTL]

Should just count the result for both matches. Would save the completely pointless league game having to be played. 

[Whitey Grandad]

Eminently winnable.

Schroedinger's fixture. Both winnable and loseable at the same time. Good job there aren't replays anymore so fans don't have to sit through it more than once.

Not many worse draws than that.

[Football Special]

Incredibly boring draw , hope the club are sensible and do £10 adults £1 kids and give it a chance of being a decent size crowd 

Leicester only brought 600 down in the league , they won't fancy the trip

Boooooooooooring.

Not a chance, can’t remember them ever discounting tickets to that degree. I totally agree with you that they should, but this lot don’t want to discount anything for our fans if they can get away with it. £25 adults, £15 concessions and £10 kids is my prediction

I'm sure you are right, and a crowd of only 13-14k

February has 4 home games in 18 days now, that's a tough sell 

7th Feb - Watford (home) 

14th Feb - Leicester (home FA)

21st Feb - Charlton (home) 

24th Feb - QPR (home Tues night)  

The question everyone wants to know is will we wear our limited edition kit?!!
