    Bit of a 'meh' tie, but can't complain.

    I wouldn't be too surprised if it's similar to Norwich last year: two second string sides, putting on fairly awful quality of football, with us progressing after a replay.

    Be interesting to see what Sussex Police say about ko time for that game after all the trouble last week.

    Some Brighton fans were calling for the bubble the next day.

    Supposedly a great away day though and haven't been before so am going to try and get up there. Could have been a lot worse.

    Was Norwich last year? I thought we got Arsenal in the 3rd round.

    I’d imagine Sussex Police will tell Teeside to sort their own **** out...

    Good point. They need to sort this properly. Bit of a shambles last time out.

    I said in the lead up to that match that I thought it was silly having it midweek when they haven't played for four years.

    Does anyone think Hampshire would allow that next time we play Pompey? <laugh>

    Though saying that, it wouldn't matter now I suspect with the bubble.

    That's how bad/forgettable the Norwich games were. Harry Lewis messed up and gave away a late penalty to Jerome, I think. Or something like that. Can't for the life of me remember how the replay went, suspect Long scored, but clearly we won it because of the Arsenal thrashing that followed.

    I even went to the replay! That was the worst game I've ever seen live.

    At least in the Arsenal drubbing there were goals.

    Luke Shaw starting for Man Utd. Sounds like he is doing OK but United are losing 1-0 at HT.

    He has been very good. CSKA's goal should have been ruled out for offside as well. Good game though.

    Apparently the offside law has been changed now. The old running off/leaving the field of play doesn't work any more.
