The FA Cup Thread

At long bloody last, Saints have set reasonable prices for a home cup game.

Oh CBK, where for art thou?

You read my mind.

The BBC are showing Wimbledon v Liverpool, fine, but are also showing Arsenal v Hull.

Arsenal v Hull shouldn't qualify on any grounds...not a local rivalry and both are PL teams so hardly a giant killing even if Hull win. Rubbish choice.

The united game should of been the other one

BT need some games as well.

Oh yeah, forgot they had games too. They generally always put the holders on TV in the 3rd Round though, and the fact it's a repeat of Final, think it was always going to happen.

It's due to being a repeat of last years final - Only reason I can see why.

Everton V West Ham are on TV too.

Really poor from both BBC and BT. Blyth Spartans v Birmingham should be on TV because A) The money would do wonders for Blyth and B) it would be a far more entertaining match than both all PL ties.

I would of quite liked to see Dover v Palace as well

That game is on BT sport along with 2 more games.

I would be really happy for our game to be at 3.00, so not bothered that we aren't on TV.

Found this thread wandering about on its own. We may need it today.

Come on Blythe Spartans, Dover and Gateshead!!! (Oh and Southport)

Let's have some upsets!

Stelling just mentioned his son had a tough journey to get to watch Hartlepool. Poor kid..the sins of the father and all that. I thought I'd been cruel changing my son from a ManU supporter to a Saints supporter. Social workers have got involved for less.
