Surely the best draw in this year of the loss of Big Cyrille would be City v West Brom

Surely the best draw now is a game where we can win like Newport at home? Oops...

Just think it would be fitting. Cyrille's two main clubs and it would make for a fantastic atmosphere.

It is now.

Guaranteed TV coverage, guaranteed big crowd, guaranteed fantastic atmosphere because of what Cyrille meant and still means to the two clubs.

Obviously a local derby to boot!

Baggies are through. Could be a huge tribute game for Cyrille Regis if we draw them home or away.

I’m hoping for this. Will be a sell out home or away.

Was that the game where Doyle got sent off early on? We got dominated that day and were lucky to get away with just conceeding 5. If I remember rightly, Andy Marshall passed it straight to Roman Bednar for their second

Doyle was sent off late in the first half I think. Don't think he imagined he'd be playing for us in L2 10 years later though.

Anyone at home. I want to see the Ricoh full... or there abouts. Or failing that Wigan, Rochdale, Either Manchester team or possibly Huddersfield for selfish reasons.

For purely financial reasons, Manchester United at home with the hope we can then take them to a replay. Furthermore, any possible deadline day signings might then want to join us in the hope of playing against United.

Would love to see the Ricoh full. Let’s face it won’t happen vs Accrington.

Price it right and a home Draw vs anyone can be see a full Ricoh.

Not sure who I want, big home time I suppose. Be the end of the road but I'd rather that.

Worse case scenario would be Rochdale away should they beat millwall. Have we ever won there, I'm still pissed off with our last fa cup exit there 15/16 years ago!

8 games in next round. 5 of which WILL be live.

Would love us to get a big game at home. Live, make our 300k from this one match (gate receipts and tv money) . Get knocked out. And quickly get back to concentrating on the league.

This now officially a CUP RUN. 5 games and counting.

Let’s really hope this a good distraction.

As a target man wouldn’t mind that Henderson from Rochdale. I know there’s no chance they will sell.

Wasn’t that the first game post Dowie? The real start of the Sisu era? Should’ve seen the signs.

Rochdale away. Another game outnumbering home fans with 5000+ in that side stand.

On a side note, if we draw Leicester or Chelsea, I'd love to see the club limit the away allocation to the maximum of 4800 (ish) and not 6000.

I think the away stand holds between 6 and 7 thousand.
It would be limited only on safety reasons for the few morons of each club who can't take banter and want to fight.
I wonder if ours know it costs us money ?
