The thought of beating you twice in one week makes me shiver  :D

Hopefully it will be an enjoyable occasion. How many tickets are we likely to have?

I doubt it will be enjoyable as the tension will be unbelievable, with Lambert in charge we would have lost the league game and the quarter final but we now have a chance, as for tickets no idea.

Great draw, was the one I was hoping for earlier.

Will be a filthy game I expect with a cracking atmosphere. Could do with Benteke getting a couple of goals before it.

Good that Arsenal have been paired with Man United too. Thats one likely winner gone and should be a cracking game.

Bradford would be the ideal semis draw, payback for last year. Think they will get past Reading too.

Stevie G's final is looking very likely, would be a great one to shit all over and beat them.

Blackburn's front two bullied Stoke at the weekend so they will give Liverpool a decent game.

Pride of the Midlands at stake here...

Not until another Midlands team beats 7 Titles, 7 FA Cups, 5 League Cups, and 1 European Cup.
I think our former number 7 might be taking the piss.
Second time in a week I've had to explain a joke. They're obviously not funny

Number 10 (as I call them) wasn't he?

Considering our size and history the fact that this is our first 6th round home tie since 1960, has got to be one of the amazing stats in F A Cup history. Also the fact that we have only won the cup once since 1920, has to be one of the most embarrassing.

Happy enough to play them at home rather than away, hopefully we can win some league games between now and then to build some momentum.

Wouldn't shock me if it goes to a replay though.

Glad it's at home, although I reckon it'll go to a replay as well.

It's a cracking draw also because if they get through Man U will play Arsenal. And if Arsenal don't get to travel to Old Trafford, well then that's great news too! Liverpool will be happiest I imagine, though Blackburn won't make it easy.

The last time villa and Smethwick were in the FA cup quarter finals together was in 1957.  Just sayin like.

Impressive research. I salute you.

I reckon it will be a 12.30 KO on the Sunday.  5.30 on the Saturday would be ace.

And Blues were in the other semi, pretty impressive all around.

As long as it's not Friday night or Monday night.

Saturday lunchtime would suit me best!

Good luck? Seriously? I like Liam but there is no way in a million years I would wish him and his lot good luck for either game. I hope you lose both games, Liam. We both stay up and we progress in the cup.
