The last time we played Middlesbrough in the FA Cup was in 1957…

I like the cut of your jib.

A tough game but we’ve had some good victories up there over the years. A good test and hopefully we can get into round 4 for the first time in a million years.

I've come to the conclusion it's irrelevant who we draw - this is the year.

I have a really good feeling that some of our younger fans will finally experience something they never thought they would see in their lifetime.

What’s the  current rules on tickets for away games in the FA Cup, is it still 15%?

Main thing with drawing Boro is that it's away. We usually do well up there while games at VP tend to be shit.

Allocation will be approx 5000, assuming we take the full allocation.

Same here, we’re only Claret members so cup games are the only chance of an away game really!

A quick Google and Tottenham got 4,866 tickets a couple of years ago.

Leeds being drawn away makes it 13 away draws in a row for them, which is a new record. Leeds were previously tied with us on 12.

10 London clubs at home if Wimbledon get through, plus Watford & Luton. Sounds like a good weekend for London Transport to go on strike.
