    Careful what you wish for.
    Although I understand the sentiment and agree would take losing this to beat Wigan.
    Although of course two losses feels more unlikely right now

              Home supporters are advised that there is a preferred walking route recommended for arriving the Stadium from the city centre, this route will take you down Ninian Park road into Canton and into Sloper Rd.
              Please note that a police corden will be enforced on Sloper Road to post match ensure the safety of both sets of supporters.
              Supporters should note that a c20 minute window will be enforced at the end of the game to allow the safe departure of all supporters.
              A police corden will remain in place on Sloper Road, meaning that Leeds United fans will be escorted right out of the stadium towards Grangetown and back to their City centre Parking & Station. Cardiff City supporters will be asked to turn left towards Canton or wait in the Stadium until clear. The Ninian Bars will remain open.
              All bollocks

                  Match Facts
                  • This is the first FA Cup meeting between Cardiff and Leeds since January 2002, with then third tier Cardiff winning 2-1 against the Whites, who were top of the Premier League. At the time, it was the first time a side top of the top-flight had lost to a team from outside the top-two divisions in the FA Cup since February 1971, also Leeds against Colchester United of the fourth tier.
                  • All four times Leeds have been eliminated from the FA Cup by Cardiff City has come in the third round, doing so in three consecutive seasons between 1955-56 and 1957-58 and also 2001-02. Only three fixtures have seen a team knock out another more often in the FA Cup third round: Man Utd vs Reading (6), Man City vs Leicester (6) and Man Utd vs Aston Villa (8).
                  • Leeds have lost their last six matches in the FA Cup, a run stretching back to January 2017. Only once have they lost more consecutive games in the competition, losing seven in a row between 1955 and 1961, a run that included three defeats in a row against Cardiff.
                  • This is Leeds United's 10th consecutive away match in the FA Cup, stretching back to January 2016. They are only the second team in FA Cup history to play 10 away games in a row, after Stockport County between 1996 and 2001 (11).
                  • As a Championship side, Cardiff are winless in their last nine FA Cup matches against Premier League teams (D2 L7) since a 2-0 away win at Middlesbrough in March 2008, going on to reach the final that year.

                    I'm going tomorrow. Going to the Grange before and after the game. Will I really have to walk via Clare Rd and Ninian Park Rd to get to the ground and reverse to get back after the game?
                    Sounds a bit draconian.

                        Hard to work out if Cardiff fans can or can’t walk down Sloper Road.

                        “Cardiff fans will be asked” what does asked mean in this context? A polite “we’d prefer you to go another way round” or “you can’t come this way”.

                            Not worth a separate thread, but for those interested......

                              Got to be honest this is probably the least interested in a Cardiff match I've been for years. Literally couldn't give a single toss about this game, just hope no one gets injured.
