So we're through to the next round... Who are you hoping we get? Charlton, Wigan and Sheffield Wed seem like the easier draws
I reckon Sunlan is about the easiest draw left. They'll be putting all their efforts into staying up and the league cup final, literally the last thing they'll want is another cup run. Of course he'd never say it but I honestly reckon Gus will want them to lose.
We never seem to play well against Wigan either. I still remember that fateful FA Cup away day at Wigan in the snow. Hardly anybody turned up and you could literally shout across the stadium. They had a whole stand empty. Geovanni opened the scoring and we ended up getting battered. That was an awful day
It's always better to play lower league teams away. They would park the bus at the KC, our fans would be on the players backs and they would out-sing us. Look at this match. They had to go for it, the pressure was on them and class told in the end.
Away to Charlton, Sheff Wed or Wigan for me. Whilst not very fluent at times, considering that team was pretty much our 2nd string now, it's quite impressive how far we have come.
Sheffield United / home or away . Good mate supports them and I would get to the game if its away . course that's if they get into round 5
