Well everyone it’s our favourite time of the year when we give someone the gift of a
place in the fourth round.
Which lucky team will it be this year?

Probably not too many grounds you haven't been to Steve.
Would be great to have a cup run. Been a while.

The sad thing is the decline in popularity of the competition with the big clubs appearing
to see it as an unnecessary distraction.
I can still remember the buzz when the Rs first round cup match was and fans made a big
effort to dress up in the late 50’s and early 60’s.

Maybe putting 3 past West Brom is a sign that a cup run is imminent
