FA Cup 5th Round - Leicester at Home

[PeterWithesShin]

How many ties do they show? I really can't see ours getting picked as for telly appeal, it's probably 6th or 7th most attractive I reckon.

I should probably add, as they are out the cup, and were due to play Boro who are still in it.

Ah, good point! Wish I was clever. Surely Villa and West Brom can play at home on the same day?

They showed six last time including one on BBC Wales. Now all the Welsh clubs are out I'm not sure if they'll just show five or if they're allowed to show an extra game on BBC throughout the UK to make up for it.

Decent draw. Big crowd, great atmosphere, and we will win. I must say I do love a good run in the FA Cup.
If I live to see Villa win the FA Cup I will die a happy man.

It's the perfect draw. We're at home to a club who still think the Premier League is a happy, shiny place and they'll not want the nasty FA Cup getting in  their way of staying in it. Plus there are at least three nailed-on TV games.

Everyone needs to stop, I'm starting to dream the impossible dream.

The One Show did the expected lousy job.  They did not summarise the draw after they had made it, which every similar programme has always done. Palace & Arsenal will be the televised picks. We may squeak in as 3rd choice.

However I did like it when the announcer (was it Mark Chapman?) said Preston or Sheffield United will play Cambridge United without mentioning you know who.

Surely we should hope for a Sunday game again.  Two Sundays two wins.  Lets not fix what isn't broken.

I'm demanding my nephew brings his Aussie fiancee again as a good luck charm.

Who at the club/police made that bizarre decision one year to give Man. United the whole of the Witton lower?

That was love and hated. From upper Trinity I loved it when Ian Taylor scored the second. Just the look on their faces priceless however it was horrific later on.
