Potential banana skin. If we win the maximum number of Premier League teams left in will be 12 + us. Hope we go for it!
Best FA Cup draw we’ve had in a long time.
If it is Mansfield then we get to relive that wonderful night under Micky Adams in 1997. If Wigan win, we might get to see a Sessegnon v Sessegnon battle and there’s another reminder of that remarkable Third Division promotion season.
C.B. is right that the draw might open up for us and I think we know after the team selection against Watford, that Marco will pick the strongest side possible.
Hopefully, this isn’t a Thursday evening affair so we can enjoy a good old-fashioned away day wherever we end up going!
