The good:Everton at home, big crowd, realistic potential upset. Or Forest Green Rovers (if they win the replay) new ground and chance to taste some vegan food!
The bad: bloody Bolton away again, or Luton Town, won 5-0 away today and already scored 8 goals in one game and seven goals twice this season. Potential banana skin.
The ugly : Port Vale (if they win their replay). After last season, I predict a riot!

ill take the old cliche anyone at home although its strange one with the timing. because i love fa cup & want to progress as far as we can. but with the derby 4, 5 or 6 days after (depending on when game scheduled sat sun or mon) we will be resting our better players. so preferably a lower league would give us a better cgance of progressing

although as someone pointed out we have got possibly of 3 derbies in 10 days if we draw wednesday & it goes to a replay

Why rest players if it is six days before the Derby? We played leaders Wolves three days after the Hillsborough game and still beat them (impressive even though they had a player sent off).
 
Boring and cliche as it sounds I'd quite like a big Premier League outfit at the lane.

We will get Walsall away.

I’ll be you anything we don’t get Walsall away. You can name whatever odds you like

Newport County discovered to have cheated in their first round match and get thrown out of the cup maybe? :)

Hereford away, if they can beat Fleetwood in the replay. Nearest ground for me!
 
Somewhere where the ticket allocation will be reasonable so there is a chance to get a ticket. :rolleyes:

Somewhere that does not necessitate walking a mile, getting four trains and then a bus/taxi. :eek: and then the same in reverse in the rain. :(
