    Wolves v Manchester City

    Cardiff v Burnley

    Blackburn v Newcastle United

    Arsenal v Bolton

    Stoke v Liverpool

    Aldershot v Manchester United

    Crystal Palace v Southampton


    Everton v Chelsea


    Good draw in my opinion. I'm happy to avoid the large Premiership clubs for another round and would quite like to see us do well in a cup this season. But securing a place in the final 16 with the likes of Chelsea and Manchester United (and Aldershot!) is something to be happy about!

    I'm looking forward to this game. I'd quite like to go and should be able to get there by the skin of my teeth if I catch a train straight after work!

    But a great chance to get through to quarters. Let's meet a top team at Wembley.

    I meant the final is at Wembley so we must avoid the best sides till then. You never know we might get Aldershot in the next round:laugh:

    Fairly boring draw, decent chance of going through though. I believe in the last round tickets cost a fiver at Sellhurst, so could be a fairly cheap away game. It also falls in Half Term week for the kids so you could perhaps kill two birds with one stone. I reckon we could take a fair few thousand up there if not sell out with it being cheap and the oppertunity to progress further in the cup.

    Just been on a Palace forum. Before the draw they all wanted Aldershot or a big side. After draw, disappointed but reckon it will be a chance to get to the quarters. Sound familiar!
