Ball. Number 3? 3? It's a disgrace.

We've been ball number three in the FA Cup Third Round draw for the last nine years.

Round Three – w/c 7 November 2022

Why the big gap until the next round ?

Truncated European season due to World Cup means a lack of available midweek dates. We have Man U the Sunday before so our game will be on the Wednesday (9th November).

Probably draw Man Utd then or Brighton who we play the next game. That coincidence of facing a team that are also scheduled for a league fixture in the same week can be an occurrence on occasions

Is that how long I've been pissed off at it for? Blimey.

Worse still, Arsenal have won the cup four times since inheriting our cursed ball number two.

I guess even ball 2 wasn't exactly lucky for us...

And how about this.
I heard that round 4 is the week after the World Cup final.

Also let's hope other premier league clubs get drawn against each other.
