[Archived] Fourth Round Draw

[Robin]

So of the three live games chosen by the BBC five of the six teams are from the Premiership?

Aren't these the same tossers who constantly whitter on about the FA Cup being the cup for glory and upsets? Isn't there already a Match of the Day and a Match of the Day 2? What need of a third? So many more interesting games and yet they chose these...

Saturday

Chester/Cheltengam-Newcastle 12.15 BBC1

Bolton-Arsenal 18.40 BBC1

Sunday

Wolves-Man Yoo/Burton 4.00 Sky Sports

Portsmouth-Liverpool 6.00 BBC1

Now im waiting for the swedish TV to choose wich game will be showed 3.00(16.00CET), but i suspect that it will be chelsea versus Millwall/everton....

Hopefully unlike the link above, this one actually opens. It is a rather good preview by a Hammer.

[Ozz]

It does! It does! It's your computer Philip!

For me Rovers should play a reserve team and forget about this game.

We have a "replay" agaisnt manure next week which IMO is far more important.

We have to wreak revenge on this red scum of a football team so we should rest the like sof Gray, Nelsen, MGP, Neill and Savage.

SSN reporting Dean Ashton out with a groin injury!

No way. Let's not treat the greatest domestic cup competition in the world with contempt. The 'red scum' you mentioned did that when they jetted off to Brazil, I hope never to see the day Blackburn Rovers scorn the FA Cup.

[1864roverite]

its only in preference to a higher league position

[Flopsy]

we have no strikers to speak of - id give Jemal and Kuqi a run up front - MGP on bench, Peter on the left wing

You said on the Man U thread that if we lose again it would reduce our confidence and send ud down the league! Surely winning would help our league position by keeping our good run going and keeping our confidence high?

Usually a good cup run helps improve the league form too. It's not so often that cups interfere with league form - at least not just the one cup anyway.

Jemal is @#/?, I think hughes has sussed this due to him not even making the bench of late.

[SuperStella]

With one fit striker why have we not asked for Gallagher back?!!?!?!?

i think it's something to do with sparky not rating him

[OJRovers]

I think the WHAM game must be the time to play MGP up front, Peter / Emerton on the wing. Hope Reidy continues his good form.

[philipl]

Nice interview!

After scrolling past the violent neanderthals, I loved this comment:

"that has to be wind up re Dailly?"

They are quick those Hammers.

This West Ham web site doesn't even know what round they are in. And they forgot to type in the team!

Lawro's Prediction

-----------------------

West Ham v Blackburn

I have to go for West Ham. Blackburn are the same as Wigan in that they had a really big game in midweek against Manchester United.

They are also looking a little bit short up front at the moment with Craig Bellamy out with an injured hamstring.

Full match preview

Verdict: 2-1

SURPRISE SURPRISE

[pick32]

2-0 westham

we dont look capable of scoring with our attackers

[frosty]

West Ham 1-1 Blackburn

Harewood 62

Kuqi 64

I think if we could bring them back to Ewood we would be okay

Where is everyone planning on going for a pre match pint tomorrow?

As for the score........i would be happy to get a draw.

[USRoverME]

With one fit striker why have we not asked for Gallagher back?!!?!?!?

378690[/snapback]

He may have been cup-tied for the ManU match and W. Ham as well?

so maybe the thought is to let him keep playing, then recall him?

[roversWASmylife]

Can't afford it, hope it's being shown somewhere.

[waggy]

just shows how far the fa cup has fallen in fans eyes,just 4 pages off posts and 3 off them were on about the draw.i am not sure what will happen tomorrow,we need at least a draw,but most off all we need a centre forward

[nonaynevernomore]

I think:

Kuqi playing...

West Ham 1

Blackburn 0

Nowt up front

No Kuqi..

Hammers 0

Blackburn 2 Emerton 33, Pedersen 55

Cant see it happening IF WE PLAY KUQI
