[Greasy Chip Butty]

Should be a good tie i think and a winnable one

 

[Robbie]

We can beat 'Boro definately

Good tie for me, as got 'Boro fans in family.

One of big guns in Manure/Arsenal definately out too.

Looking at the draw though, bit disappointed there will only be one all prem tie.

At the last 16 it's good to see only 6 prem teams in.

 

[S64 Blade]

Quite a good draw really.

Definitely winnable.

 

[Tinoblade]

WE can win this one definitley

We're all going on a trip to wembely

 

[Monty's_Girl]

Good draw and winable with hopefully a packed Bramall Lane
Robson will be fired up for this no doubt

 

[MAQ]

Robson will be fired up for this no doubt

lets just hope that he doesnt feel he has any loyalty to them

 

[Sensiblade]

Clever BBC Strike again

'Sheffield United will be hoping for another Premier League scalp after their 2-1 victory over Manchester City when they travel to the Riverside Stadium.'

[RIP Niftos]

it's been corrected now Oli

 

[matth]

After the way we played yesterday, I'd say that pretty much any match is winnable at the moment! I hope we can keep it up.

 

[shorehamview]

That'll do. Tonk Boro, then Huddersfield in the next round after they put Chelsea to the sword.

 

[markdablade]

winable game hope its on a sunday because then i can go

also glad weve got through because wednesday match is now re-arranged and i wont be missing it

 

[stinkyblade]

I think it it most definately a winnable game, i reckon on BBC the Saturday evening. then go on to play Southampton or Bristol Rovers

 

[Greasy Chip Butty]

I've heard BBC coverage with a 2pm coverage on the Sunday for this match, any confirmation?

confirmed on OS

 

[stinkyblade]

I thought it would probably be but i hope it doesn't affect attendance

 

[Robbie]

Can see attendance of about 16,000 with being on BBC. I hope I'm wrong though.

Yup its official....

TV Games as follows (though one of these is incorrect because bbc & sky should have 2 each):

BBC1 - 16 FEB - 12:30 Bristol Rovers v Southampton

BBC1 - 16 FEB - 17:15 Man U v Arsenal

BBC1 - 17 FEB - 14:00 Blades v Boro

SKY - 17 FEB - 16:00 Preston v Portsmouth

 

[Tinoblade]

Another poor attendance then

 

[Sheffield-Bl4de]

cup matches always are, unless they are away

 

[stinkyblade]

cup matches always are, unless they are away

And not on TV

I bet if we weren't on TV against Boro there would be thousands more that go

Also not all cup matches are poor attendances

Arsenal a few years ago was a replay and on BBC and we got 27,000, albeit we were so much better then
