The rest of the draws: Tottenham v Leeds United Tranmere/Wolves v Crystal Palace Aston Villa v Brighton Preston v Chelsea Portsmouth/Coventry v Sunderland Bolton v Sheffield United/QPR Everton v Nottingham Forest/Birmingham West Brom v Plymouth/Newcastle Scunthorpe United v Manchester City Notts County/Forest Green v Wigan Athletic Stoke City v Arsenal Bristol City/Cardiff City v Leicester City Millwall/Derby v Brentford/Doncaster Reading/Liverpool v Burnley Southampton v Ipswich I'd really like to see this team reach Wembeley, so easy draws don't bother me in the least.
Oh man, if its Gillingham it may get messy. Fulham and Gillingham is like oil and water. Bad blood to say the least. Should be interesting.
Wait, there must be a mistake with the above listing. Arsenal and chelsea on the road? Somebody in the FA office is in trouble.
On the other hand, courtesy of some research by nmancini04 and myself, Fulham have never played Accrington Stanley in a competitive match, not in the league, not in the FA Cup, not in the League Cup, not the current incarnation of the club that was founded in 1968, not the incarnation that existed from 1891 to 1962, not never. (Come to think of it, this may have been mentioned last year or the year before in discussions of FA Cup opponents we'd like to see Fulham draw.)
Accrington Stanley -- Gillingham delayed for another week -- http://soccernet.espn.go.com/match?id=286842&cc=5901
why is it bad to get gillingham? If it doesn't list something bad about fulham on their wiki page, I have no idea why I should be concerned.
today's league match at Accrington was cancelled due to a waterlogged pitch. God knows when they'll be able to play the match against Gillingham.
Neither team can afford to let this game get delayed again so I'm sure Accrington are doing everything they can to get that pitch ready for Tuesday.
I saw a thread this morning on another Fulham site saying that FSC has the match scheduled LIVE on Saturday at 0900 Central. Better and better. Also, just by winning today, AS guarantees that they'll not only continue in business but will be eligible to participate in the transfer period. They came very close to going out of business in November.
Yes, but unless they move the match here to NY to avoid having to play on Accrington's soaking wet field, I don't think it's going to happen. For what it's worth, my cable listings confirm what Don said about live coverage on FSC, but unfortunately I won't be around this weekend to go out and watch. (Anyone reading live in Ithaca, NY?)
Well, the schedule on the proper FSC schedule just lists an FA cup game. preceded by PNE v Chelskum and followed by Spurs-Leeds You guys DO understand that the 'Rayv' site is for online, right? If you find a TW or other provider listing that specifies FFC at 10, lemme know.
