    If we put out a strong team then Adkins has lost it, our squad depth is bad enough as it is.

    If it came to a choice of winning the FA Cup and getting relegated, or going out in the 3rd round and staying up on the last day, am I the only one who'd go for the first option?

    I think Rodriguez will play instead of Rickie, but I can see Ramirez, Lallana, Morgan etc starting. I don't understand why people want the reserves to play. A cup run could be a good thing.

    I would go for the 2nd option, but I want a strong side put out in the FA Cup this season.

    For me we should field a reasonably strong side. Good chance to progress and good for morale!

    When do we play Chelsea away in the PL? It should be about the same time since that will a bit past the half way point of the season.

    Good chance for JWP and such to gain match fitness against good opposition but i wouldn't like to see us risk many first 11 players.

    I think it's a good draw. We take the FA cup seriously so expect a strong team from us. What is the allocation for cup games at your place? 5000?

    It was meant to be 15 December but postponed because Chelsea are playing in the club world cup. I would guess it will be in February or March.

    It will be 15% which is around 4,800.

    You'll get around 75% of the Northam Stand. I'm judging this from the Man Utd game in the cup a couple of seasons ago.

    They'll have a new manager when we play them.
