Ashley17 Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 I'm not ashamed to admit that I love the FA cup, but this year it's going to be weird. With us not a top flight club, we could be drawn at home to say Wolves and if we win it's a shock However, I fear Hughton and co. will play the kids in the cup, which I know is probably for the greater good but I don't like seeing this cup being played down. What does everybody else think? Do you give a shit about the cup? Would you even give a shit if we were in the Prem and, for example, midtable? The draw for the third round is tomorrow (Sunday) after the Kettering/Leeds game on ITV. We're ball number 25. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElDiablo Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 The excitement of the draw is better than the actual game tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steggy Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 I want Spurs, Chelsea, Arsenal, Man United, Man City or Villa away. Otherwise i'll be fucking pissed off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Away trip somewhere interesting please, not a PL club if possible. Not that it matters as we'll draw Arsenal in round 4 as usual. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Part of me wants an easy draw so we can progress, but another part is desperate to play a Premiership team......the players have a point to prove. Playing the kids is totally understandable because we're never going to win the thing, however I would actually like Hughton to play a good team.

Pilko Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Right mixture of youth and experience, I think. Start Kadar, Ranger, LuaLua and Krul and otherwise keep it first team regulars, with a few more kids on the bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as the team is closer to the one that started against Huddersfield and not Peterborough (Carling Cup game) then I'll be satisfed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JH Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 I'd take a PL team at Sjp. Would love a big game and a proper test, but an away tie would be too testing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 I'd love to get Sunderland home or away, but we'd get pretty much humiliated, even if they don't start a first choice team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mistle17 Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Would love to see a Prem side like City come to SJP in front of a full house. The atmosphere would be fantastic if we were to win. However, as numerous people have said I'd like to see players like Lua Lua, Krul and Kadar stretch their legs. They need to play. But it'll be Arsenal away, lets face it.

Stifler Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Anyone but Sunderland, a home game would be prefferd, mainly for the revenue for the club, then on the other hand, I'd like to see us play in our 3rd kit this year. A home game against Carlisle would be interesting, though secretly I want one of Arsenal, Man Utd, Chelsea, Liverpool, Spurs, Everton, Villa, or City so that we can be knocked out, hopefully away though so we have a chance going all season unbeaten. Also a tie against Leeds if they progress as they should would be interesting. If we were in the Premiership it would be a different story (unless we were fighting for survival), because right now we only really have one goal and that is promotion.

nufcmichael Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Stoke, Birmingham, Sheffield clubs, Wolves, Milton Keynes, Notts C, Nottm F, WBA, Aston Villa, Man Utd, Man City or Leeds... of course away... I live in Stoke, so an away game nearby would be nice... a shame Port Vale are out. Leeds away would be nice. Edit: Forgot Derby Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
