markjazzbassist Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 very winnable match i believe, especially with the way we are playing. i imagine well see the likes of stones, gerry, jelavic, starting. good draw though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee_in_LA Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 No complaints about that whatsoever. We just can't take em for granted and play them outta the park, like we all know that we have the potential to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 Good draw. I'll be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 Team at the top of the championship will never be an easy game, tougher draw than many lower premier league sides would have been because they have a winning culture, albeit at a lower level. That said we should be OK, away would've been harder. Matt and Quinn31 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quinn31 Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 Winnable draw, but I play a strong team because QPR are doing quite well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badaids Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 Hope we smash the plastic-faced-(definitely-not-a-criminal-no-way)-gor-blimey-bumcloth's team to bits - will Barton be playing at Goodison? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Nikica Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 (edited) Out of interest, when was the last time a manager won the cup in two consecutive seasons with two different clubs? Edited December 8, 2013 by Nikica Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zequist Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Never happened, Nikica. According to Wikipedia only two managers have ever won the FA Cup with two different clubs (Herbert Chapman and Billy Walker), and both of their wins were at least eight years apart.

Sibdane Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Slightly nervous about QPR. They have a decent lot of players but as long as we are playing like we have been lately, we should win by a couple of goals at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zequist Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Mike! Good to talk to you again. Things are great with me, and I hope you're well. I never stopped reading the boards, just haven't had time to do any posting because of work and other real life stuff, but I'm hoping I can start poking my head in a little more often again, especially now that we're finally getting full TV coverage of every match in the USA.

markjazzbassist Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 Second step... Stevenage (a) not happy about the away draw but we did beat them in the league cup so i'm very happy with the draw. COYB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 They are bottom of their league remember. Not that it always matters in the cups but it should be pretty straightforward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c1982 Posted January 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 They gave us a tough game in August but we're a lot better since then and hopefully we won't take them lightly on the back of that. markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brett Angel Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 Sorry to keep going on about this guys but, no goals conceded up to fifth round, like 1995, now home game against premiership team. Like 1995..... I am not sure whether we had Newcastle at home this round or bristol city away.... Can someone tell me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

efc1111 Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 It's an interesting draw for the fifth round, with two of the current top four set to go out, and several lower division/weaker teams playing each other. Manchester City v Chelsea Sheffield United or Fulham v Nottingham Forest or Preston North End Arsenal v Liverpool Brighton & Hove Albion v Hull City Cardiff City v Wigan Athletic Sheffield Wednesday v Charlton Athletic Sunderland v Southampton Everton v Swansea City Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gethinO Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 No way am I happy with that. There were quite a few lower league teams left and any of them at home we would be through to the semis. Hoping it's Arsenal as there is no way we are winning in Anfield.

markjazzbassist Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 Tough draw away to arsenal (I hope) or the shite. Maybe we can finally break the curse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gethinO Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 Hoping it's Arsenal Mark. I was hoping we would break it when we went there a few weeks ago and it just further convinced me that we bottle it at Anfield every time.
