Wycombe away, if it’s anything like the home game a few years back we’re in for a treat!

Our luck in the draws so far has been unreal <laugh>
 
Man City and Chelsea also getting piss easy draws. Meanwhile, we have Southampton (most likely) away.
 
Wycombe gave us a game a few years ago:

We get Wolves/Chorley (most likely Wolves) away even if we beat Southampton/Shrewsbury (most likely Saints) <laugh>

Chelsea and City have had unreal luck in this draw. <doh>

Swansea/Forest v Cheltenham/Man City
Barnsley/Norwich v Chelsea/Luton
Are they taking the piss?

There's also: Sheff Utd/Plymouth v Millwall/Bristol City, Fulham/Burnley v Bournemouth/Crawley.
Guarantees some mediocre sides getting through, at least.
Brentford/Leicester v Brighton/Blackpool should see Leicester make it. A bit tricky with Brentford, but they'll rest players for that one.

Unfortunately, I don't think we'll be retaining the FA Cup this year. Meaning I can't post more pictures of Aubameyang lifting the trophy on your board<wah>
 
“Rigged” is trending on Twitter thanks to Utd and Arsenal fans by the looks of it.

Crouchy, your work here is done.

In fairness, your tie for the 5th round is potentially quite tricky. Everton away isn't exactly favourable and I doubt if it were rigged, United and Liverpool would be drawn against each other so early on. It's not rigged, it's just down to luck. In our case this year, rotten luck!

There's a lot of people talking about City and Chelsea getting easy draws, again.
One of them does seem to get them constantly, it must be said. Not sure about the other.

Some people have suggested that some balls are hot and others are cold, to differentiate between the 'top' sides and the lesser sides.
It's plausible, but I don't think it's true.

City habitually get easy draws, whereas Chelsea's have been a bit more mixed but generally been on the easy side. However, United and Liverpool haven't had easy draws in the FA Cup that regularly, which partially explains why neither have won it much in recent years.
