This means one of two things, my uncle will either text/ring me every 1/2 hour, or, not speak to me for six months.

Can we draft in Shaun Teale for the game?

Given the history of the fixture, I can see this game being on Sky

Very little chance of it being on Sky i'd have thought. I doubt they care about a semi-final 18 years ago. If it had been at Tranmere then there'd have been a fair chance it would be shown purely as more chance of an upset.

Assuming they show 2 games then it will probably be Yeovil v WBA and maybe the sotV derby.

I'd say Sheffield Wednesday v Fulham (big old club v Premier League upstarts) and Everton v Orient (the biggest club in their eyes who are at home and they've lost a  few like this so a chance of an upset).

Sky are going to want to see a possible shock so there's no chance of our home game v Tranmere being on. I'd say looking at those games certainly Yeovil, Forest, Sheff Wed or Stevenage

[PeterWithesShin]

Sheff Weds game is a decent shout, can't see them going for the Everton game though, like ours too much of a home banker. They generally want glamour, a derby or a good chance of an upset which is usually a tie like the Yeovil one, bigger boys away to the plucky little club.

And am I the only one who finds it depressing that Tranmere was 18 years ago? Another reason to head back to the old git thread!
