FA Cup 5th round draw

Swansea away that's another hard game for Fulham, would have been nice at Home.


Full Draw:

FA Cup fifth-round draw:

Sheff Utd v Hull
Watford v Chelsea
West Ham v Middlesbrough
Sunderland/Blackburn v Coventry
Derby/Nott'm For v Man Utd
Swansea v Fulham
Liverpool/Everton v Doncaster/Aston Villa
Cardiff/Arsenal v West Brom/Burnley

 

Predictions (based on almost no info):

Shef U, Chelsea, WH, Sunderland, ManU, FULHAM, Liverpool, Arsenal.

If that happens, the odds of us not drawing one of the big four in the 6th round (I think): 3/7 = .429

 

Bah, you've already seen them in person. :3d funny:

 

Though as I recall the '27 Yankees specialized in playing the long game and I think our defense can stop that...

 

No way Don, it's Wembley or bust.

Think about. K-Town aside, We're the perfect cup team: We dont score, we dont concede.

Roy is often portrayed as an Italian manager, and who does well in knockout competitions? The Italians!

 

Other than Murphy, do we have anyone who can score penalties? If you're going to play 90 or 180 deadlocked minutes and hope to advance, you've gotta be able to knock those home.
