So, who do we want in the FA CUP then???

[ShockingBadBuy]

Haha I wish!

Went out in the earliest round ever in our history, extra qualifying round in August on penalties against Walsall Wood!

Can't see us making the first or second round proper for a few years alas, until we get ourselves sorted and pushing back up the leagues.....until then its lingering memories of the great runs we had in 2014 and 2015 and the trip to BDTBL!

A Blade’s “other club” is knocked out of a cup by Walsall?

This Bramall Lane thing is definitely rubbing off on you, JR.

 

[spongebobblade]

Pigs away
No bus parking AND with it being a cup tie they would have to give us the entire Leppings Lane end like the old days which would really piss them off

 

[S64 Blade]

It’ll be Preston.

 

[Cerberus Blade]

It will be Hartlepool or Walsall

Pity we can’t play a combined 11 of the two really. Another tasty fixture would Gillingham away. Or Scunthorpe?

Oh those early rounds of the Cup eh? Altrincham, Burscough. Nowt like it. Dare to dream!

 

[Cerberus Blade]

Accrington away would be good for me as its 3 miles from my house

Oswaldtwistle? Reight place that!

 

[away ends always empty.]

West ham away ,love to beat them again.

 

[Blade56]

Arsenal

 

[JackSUFC]

West Ham or a non-league team away, or a top 6 PL club at home.

 

[Boxer Blade]

1. Man Utd aren't struggling
2. They'd wipe the floor with us

It's a tad tongue in cheek, but I would like a premier league team at the Lane, of course man United could wipe the floor with us but I would also have confidence is us pulling off a result

 

[snb69]

Any team that isn't in the Championship, home or away. Can't get excited about drawing a team we will have already played this season.

 

[SW12 to S12 to S18]

Oswaldtwistle? Reight place that!

I have it on good authority that Ossy is a good night out.

 

[Robby Blade]

Oswaldtwistle? Reight place that!

I never knew Oswsldtwistle had an abundance of Michelin Star restaurants.

 

[Russ]

Fleetwood. Chedwyn to score its written in the stars. A million miles away.

 

[Cerberus Blade]

I never knew Oswsldtwistle had an abundance of Michelin Star restaurants.

Michelin scar restaurants in Oz. Tyre marks outside where folks have driven off in a hurry!

 

[Silent Blade]

Oswaldtwistle? Reight place that!

That is where Mick Heaton died in a car accident

The name rings a bell Silent. I’m trying to place him. Was he a defender?

Yes, left back for the first three months of the 1969-70 season before Ted Hemsley took over

 

[Silent Blade]

Mick Heaton went to Blackburn and had a long spell there. He became Howard Kendall's assistant at Blackburn and Everton.

 

[Cerberus Blade]

Yes, left back for the first three months of the 1969-70 season before Ted Hemsley took over

I vaguely remember the name. Sorry to hear about that and was totally ignorant of that fact.

I lived in Blackburn some years ago and remember Oswaldtwistle, Accrington, and all sorts of other exotic Lancashire towns.

Enjoyed my time there. The folks were brilliant. Really friendly. Salt o the earth types

 

[Paulus]

Man City away would be my choice - a new stadium for me, a complete free hit and the fascination of seeing how CW/AK would set up against the best in the land. If we win, a great day if we lose we won't have a distraction running over the second half of the season and it would be fun seeing Kyle Walker play.

 

[DifferentClass]

Heart wants pigs at home but head thinks Bournemouth away.

 

[blade too long]

Man city at home
Can concentrate on the league then but scare the shit out of them first

 

[Houston_Blade]

Fleetwood. Chedwyn to score its written in the stars. A million miles away.

Ched didn't play at the weekend, has he played in any FA cup games this season? I wondered whether we'd put a clause in the loan in case he ended up coming back.

 

[SHOREHAMST.com]

Brighton, Away.

Or Newport / West Ham / Accrington Away.

 

[BLADES1988]

Heart wants pigs at home but head thinks Bournemouth away.

I'm not sure I could cope with Dai Brooks scoring against us. Not sure If I would be happy or sad or both?
