Gillingham vs Villa and Southampton vs Man United are other ties, one more that I can't remember.

Wolves travel the short distance to St Andrews to take on Birmingham City in what should be a fantastic game - hopefully Mick will put a strong side out because I really want us to do well in the FA Cup this season.
ANYWAY I was thinking of a game - and that game is basically say the name of your team and who your against, and who'sever team gets the furthest in the competition, wins.
What do you win? A big ol' pat on the back. So who's your team's facing?

Blyth Spartans v Blackburn, you have missed.


Cardiff face Reading for the 2nd time in 8 days, maybe 9. Mr. Routledge decided to **** off to QPR so Whittingham will be played, joy. Hope Eddie gets a start up front. Reading will field a weakened side so I hope we can get through. Saying that, their weakened side contains Shane Long and Leroy Lita.

Oh my good god!


Macclesfield are crap really. 14th in league two with the 3rd worst goal difference in the league, -18. I know they're underdogs and at home but it really shouldn't be a problem.

No, they're actually 15 points clear at the top of the Championship with a goal difference of +43.

You should pay more attention to lower league teams. That's where the true football is played.
