5th round draw tonight on the One Show BBC1 7pm ish

[StraferJack]

I have a feeling Arsenal and West Ham are destined to meet in Semis or Final this year (as long as they both stay in)

I'm betting we get Palace

[Otta]

Liverpool Vs United anyone??? Or Bolton Vs Cambridge of course.

[red devil]

If we get through, I reckon Arsenal at home...

[JohnL]

Many teams don't really seem to care about the FA cup unless they find themselves in the quarters - then they go for it.

[Mick Mac]

I think Stoke will probably win it.

[Parkdrive]

Looking at the teams put out by Salford United, City , Chavs, Spuds , Liverpool and Arsenal I don't think you can say they took these games lightly, which makes the Chavs and City results especially embarrassing. Chavs Unbeaten and quadruple right?

It was Spurs 37th game of the season. Quite a few more than everyone else. And we have another two games before the month is out. We made nine changes for the game on Saturday. At least three too many in my opinion.

With ten minutes to go and Spurs being one-nil up. I still felt we needed to kill the game as I had a feeling Leicester could still win it and they did. Good luck to them.

Jeez! that's a lot by January.

West Brom away......could have been worse (or better)

I'm surprised to hear you say that Jah, Spurs have won more points in the last 10mins of games in the PL than any other team...

Although there's still the chance for an upset or two, the draw was pretty uneventful, but the QF's could be quite tasty...

Yes, but that's been when we've either been losing or drawing. Not with a one-nil lead. It's a common Spurs problem that we've had in the past - snatching a loss from victory in the dying minutes.

[Otta]

IF Liverpool get past Bolton, I reckon Pardew's Palace could be a tricky tie...

[Jah Lush]

Let's hope so. I want Crystal Palace to win the FA Cup.

[Otta]

I want to be rich, but that ain't happening either.

[Jah Lush]

No. If I was a gambling man I'd stick it on the Gooners.

Crystanbul was good...

[Otta]

Haha, hadn't heard that one.

And yeah, agree Jah, think Arsenal could retain the cup.

[red devil]

Looking forward to tonight's semi, the first leg was the best game I'd seen this season, I'll go for extra time with Liverpool winning on away goals...

[????]

I'm certainly looking forward to Extra Time as We want to win at Anfield, but BFS needs to change his mentality back to our pre-December attacking/pressing style. Bristol C on Sunday and the first half of the game against Hull were back to his grinding, defensive style which a decent side will unpick (As Arsenal and Chelsea did at Christmas) whereas the early season (no Nolan, No Carrol) had us tear both Liverpool and City apart.

[Otta]

Don't really disagree, but worth noting that Liverpool were hardly blowing teams away in the early season so not sure how big a test it really was.
