  • FACup draw an embarrassment.

    Get the women out of it. They are devaluing this great competition. Anyone can read facts off a chart. What’s it doing on ITV 4 ? Get the women off the screen and stick it back where it all started for me- Monday lunchtimes on the radio. It was much more exciting. And no women involved.

    She was fine. Nowt wrong with the draw either. Jobi McAnuff comes across really well.

      They should have held it at Boreham Wood, before the game with St Albans.

          I try to avoid it now and get the result of the draw on SSN soon after. No women involved thank goodness and just straight facts: luvvly jubbly.

              There was a woman doing the SSN headlines as the draw was happening.

                How exciting are you hoping it to be? It’s picking 64 balls out of a plastic tub.

                  Thought she handled them well to be fair.

                    Can't remember her name but she's a pretty good presenter (although she did say that Cardiff were 21 in the league instead of 21st). Didn't see her last week but she's presented snooker coverage on the BBC before and knows her stuff.
                    She's no Isa Guha mind.

                      I don't mind women involved at all, but I can't say I really knew who they were and tucking the draw away on ITV4 presented by people many don't recognise does contribute to its devaluation somewhat.

                        ITV's coverage is a bit odd this season. They seem to have absolutely no self-advertising or promotion of them showing live games or the draw. I watched the draw on my phone (till we were drawn out), but had no idea it was on ITV4.

                          ITV sport has always been shit.
                          And the women thing is just producers ticking boxes- they probably have a male/female quota to stick to these days (and prob the other channels too)
