Boring.

 

Cracking away day for the Skates.

 

Bad draw for us as it’s a game we most likely lose and isn’t against anyone particularly interesting.

Think the club might be happy with that this season though so can fully concentrate on the league

 

At least it's winnable.

 

Didn't we beat them in 1976, I seem to remember a Fedora involved?

 

Our record at Palace isn’t too bad, in comparison to other grounds we visit.
Jones will be trying to put his stamp on the team and will probably/hopefully go full strength. We have a chance of getting a result there.

 

I'll take that as I had to give up my Palace tickets from earlier in the season.

Should get the whole Arthur Wait stand too so will be a good cup tie.

 

I went on BBC Sports online, for the full draw, and it’s not up yet. What’s that all about?
Sky Sports News had it though.
Minimum of 5 PL teams to go out, if I counted correctly and I can envisage Bompey getting beat by Burnley.

 

But they tell you who Liverpool are playing - phew!

 

Juventus up **** creek without a paddle again.

Entire Juventus board announce resignation - BBC Sport

 

Appalling scenes from the Melbourne derby between City and Victory. The City keeper is hit by a rubbish bin thrown by the invading Victory crowd. Being treated for concussion apparently.

 

Come on Burnley!

 

Charlton knock Brighton out on penalties!

 

Charlton away please. Forest away my second choice

 

Nah, home ties now we're in the QF.

 

Is the draw tonight or tomorrow?

 

Nah we've struggled at home to league one sides so far, let's see if we do any better away.

We've not played Charlton in years so that'd be a great tie and still very winnable.

 

Charlton away I'd like, but anyone else at home please. Hopefully United will draw City/Liverpool.

 

Can agree on that. Fixed the last bit for you though
