FA Cup 4th Round - Chelsea with added potential 5th round Leeds (h)

[Holte L2]

Make it past Chelsea and we are into the 5th Round. This is when it used to get seriously exciting thinking you could be going all the way to Wembley with some really big games.
So seriously is the FA Cup taken these days that R5 games are scheduled for 28th February. That's Wednesday 28th February.

marvellous so we'd potentially have 3 games in 8 days (Forest H / FA Cup5 / Luton A)
like you say the magic of the Cup

Don't forget the Conference League away match on Thursday 7th March.

Any idea when tickets might go on sale for this ?

Might be easier to get home-end. My brother is a Chelsea fan (yeah...), think he's a member, might try through him.

[Lsvilla]

I'm pretty confident I'll get some just want to make travel plans.

It'll be interesting to see how strong the team is for the Chelsea game as I imagine he'll have one eye on the Newcastle game. As much as we won't want to hear it, he's almost certainly going to favour league and then Conference League before FA cup.

I think we’ll go strong. Its a premier league competitor and from Emery has said in the recent past, its one of the 7 or 8 clubs he thinks we are competing with

It will be our first game after 11 day break, he will want to get match fitness into the legs of those likely to start against Newcastle.
I expect him to go very strong.

[john e]

Yep I also think he’ll go strong
best to go with slightly tired legs than rusty legs

10 minute queue to get onto the website, bit annoying.

[Lsvilla]

Got mine. Straight in via the app. Although I think I really need to upgrade my broadband. These ticket purchases are way too stressful.

Looking at the  timeframe for the selling of tickets for this game, does this mean the usual eligibility rules (regarding the number of previous away games attended) are not being applied?
