FA Cup 3rd Round Draw - Stevenage (a) weekend of 8th January 2011


Recommended Posts

Chelsea will get some s*** home tie against QPR or Sheffield United or Reading, or some other s*** team.

 

Funny you should say that.

 

I'm trying to avoid doing work, so I picked a few teams and looked at their third round draws over the last 5 years. All pretty run-of-the-mill (lots of home draws for Sunderland, lots of away draws for Newcastle) but the Chelsea draws look suss!:

 

Spurs H Champ H Prem H Prem A Champ A Champ

Newcastle A Champ A Prem A Champ A Champ H League 2

Everton H Lgue 1 A Lgue 2 H Lgue 1 H Prem A Champ

Villa H Prem A Lgue 2 H Prem A Prem A Champ

Arse A Prem H Champ A Champ A Prem H Champ

Chels H Champ H Lgue 1 H Champ H Lgue 2 H Lgue 1

Man U H Lgue 1 A Champ A Prem H Prem A Non-league

Sunderland H Non-l H Prem H Prem A Champ H Non-league

Man C A Champ H Champ A Prem A Champ H League 1

Liverpool                 H Champ A Champ A Lgue 1 H Prem A Champ

 

All at home and no Prem sides?

Interesting stuff there leffe. I have thought the same thing many a time. It isn't just the third round draw either - I'm almost sure that in most recent seasons, their 4th, 5th and even quarter final draws were consistently 'kind'. I think one season they got something like 2 L1 and 2 Champ sides, all at home, in their 3rd, 4th, 5th, QF draws. :lol:

:sadnod: I'm sure Frank Skinner did it at some point last season.

 

Would prefer someone even more random i.e The Archbishop of Canterbury or Chesney from Corrie.

 

Tell you who they need drawing the away sides: that bloke who keeps appearing in the background of live TV reports. :lol:

We'll either get Arsenal at home or a non-league side away, then Arsenal in the 4th round

 

"And Newcastle, in this 4th round draw after a superb 2-0 win against Arsenal in the 3rd, will play.... number one, Arsenal.

 

Well that's quite unlucky for the Toon Army."
