Has anyone not received their tickets yet?

 

Yes, Tuesday, but if they don't arrive in today's post, call the club. As a final resort, they can always arrange for tickets to be picked up at the ground which isn't uncommon for Cup games.

Trains from Southampton go direct to Clapham Junction but on the Fareham/Havant line. Not the quickest but we’re making a day of it anyway. Paid £32 return with a railcard 

Makes me feel better, mine was £31.99😀

Help please. It says it’s on Discovery + but it looks like you have to sign up to TNT?

Yeah you have to sign up to the sports package which is £30 a month!!

If your phone is with EE, or know someone who is with EE, you can get a discounted price of £20 a month. That's the cheapest (legal) way to sign up.

Thanks guys!

So we have Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and Man City through to the next round. If we win the  we are likely to meet one of them in the next round.... Or if we got even further, in the subsequent round. I suppose that we could get lucky, as a certain Welsh manager did once, but I want us to concentrate on the League now and aim for a playoff place.

Setting off now for the day, enthusiasm gradually being sapped, you're right this is all completely pointless isn't it 

Decided to leave my cardboard cut out FA. CUP covered in foil at home 😞

This. Stick the reserves out today and save the first team for Wednesday.

Free entry should be given to all fans turning up with that, a rattle and rosette. Bring back fun.

I remember going to Bolton 1992 in 5th round, took massive numbers, I was just a kid, remember two blokes walking around the terrace with bags full of cut up newspaper saying take handfuls to chuck in the air when the players run out, different era , no one begging Branfoot to play the kids in those days 😞

All the rage after Argentina won the World Cup in 1978. 

[StrangelyBrown]

These days it feels like we're just in the FA cup to make up the numbers before one of the big boys wins it.

As a consequence there is no FA cup magic and I couldn't give less of a shit about what happens today.

[VectisSaint]

Beginning to wonder if there's a game today. 

And just as I posted the team news came out. Charles and Stephens missing.

Strong line up tbf tbf

[Sheaf Saint]

[Sheaf Saint]

Is Stephens injured or suspended?

[The Wyvern]

Good strong line up. 
 

Wonder why a different approach to the Leicester cup game?

I assume he has been rested. Charles is also not in the squad.
