I didn't know we'd drawn Bradford City.

Yep. Have been for a while I think. That second year in top flight killed them.

Am loving that fans in general seem to focus on the Saints second half debacle and the Everton and West Ham early season defeats.

I'm quite happy for them to igore the Swansea home win (who were flying until then), Newcastle away draw (should have won but a great result) and of course the Man City win, which was of course a freak result against thier youth team / reserves (err Barry, Milner, Sinclair, Kolorov, Tevez, Lescott, Balotelli, Toure...)

Hopefully by the time the tie comes around we will have racked up a few results and they'll be thinking....errr maybe it wasn't such a good draw after all.

Coventry away just to watch us beat them.
Never fully recovered after seeing them beat us, on boxing day, at highfield rd, with my then boss, in a corporate box, betting £50 we'd win and being stood up by my (then) girlfriend.

Bitter moi?

Actually dont really care who but home would be nice ;-)

Decent draw, I expect this'll be televised what with Sky's love of Di Canio.

Could be a tricky tie, as I'd guess di Canio will have them well up for it, but we will see them off if we play as well as we have against Citeh and Swansea.

Hope so, otherwise it's going to be another match thread courtesy of R5 Sports Extra. Think I'll stock up on Reggae Reggae sauce just in case

There's very little point in trying to predict this one.  Or possibly any game with us this season.

I think we should beat Swindon if we play like we did against Swansea and Man City.

Aah Swindon, scene of the most glorious 0-0 draw since Anderlecht. Also the team that won 4-6 at the sty after being 4-1 down.
