:hehe: I thought similar. Saying that, it shows we've made some progress in recent months. At the end of September, OJ Simpson's lawyer would have struggled to make a case for us beating Forest Green, let alone Fulham.

Re: Who do we want next in the Cup?
Only 5 non Premier League sides through at the moment. I'd happily take any of them and hope for 5 or 6 all-PL ties in the next round.

Re: Who do we want next in the Cup?
Looks like there'll be 11 Premier and 5 Championship teams in the 5th round. An all-Championship tie will do. The glamour home tie can come in the quarters.

Can we do all Championship up to and including the final - then win it.
Avoiding Burnley!
A legendary cup run. :hehe:

I was going to say any non premier league team at home. Plymouth at home would be my pick now they have gone through. Though they would be a totally different proposition to the last time they were down here. But saying that, we would have played them away only a week before, so would have a measure of them.

Re: Who do we want next in the Cup?
Liverpool, Arsenal & Chelsea all out already, one of Spurs & Villa to follow, both Manchester clubs beatable. Things are starting to open up a little bit
Doncaster or Exeter if they make it through please, if not Plymouth would be nice

And they would have a measure of us. And they'd definitely sell out their allocation. What's the capacity without Tan's Folly? 27,000? That's over 4000 away fans on a high from beating Liverpool and possibly from beating us.

And I thought I was being optimistic suggesting Fulham were beatable :hehe:

Plymotuh have 4 points away from home all season and have zero wins, they sold out their allocation against us and we pumped them 5-0

And now they have a new manager and just beat Liverpool. And I'm sure you know their allocation for an FA Cup game will be much greater than it was for the previous game. I don't really fancy it. But if you do, fair enough.

15% would give them just shy of 5000 (or anyone else) that’s most of that end.

They've been absolutely dire in some of his games too. At home, I'd back us. They're going to be the worst team we could face unless Donny get through

Not going to be easy whoever we draw so Man United at home would be my choice.
