there goes our hopes of FA Cup glory!!

Why, we can beat Bolton?

[Grabbi Graeme]

Away again , think we have a chance if we play Bolton

[Exiled in Toronto]

I fancy our chances against Arsenal reserves

[Mr. E]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

why Arsenal ?? why ?? Of all the worst possible draws, away vs them was the absolute worst that we could get. If they get past Bolton it's over for us.

[G Somerset Rover]

Pile of rubbish. Yet again for the umpteenth time this season Chelsea and Utd have home draws. And Chelsea inparticular have another stinker of a team.

The order that they come out of the hat - if we get through this one, we will be no 6

Thanks for that, also something that I've never known.

[mike at picture]

crap

[Greenall_David]

no way we have arsenal or bolton.

[Ozz]

Every year I think more and more the draw is a fix. Arsenal away (prob) at probably 12.30 lunch time or 5.15 on a Sunday night. ######.

Please. let it be the Trotters.

I'm still upset over the game at Ewod, when we missed the two penalties.

We owe them for that.

Bolton at the Reebok..........could be worse. Now what will the price be £50 a ticket?

Replay is live on BBC1 on 14th Feb while we are in Leverkusen. Could be fun for those in Germany to get tix.

[T4E]

C'mon Notlob, if they get through we can get a draw at t'Reebok and do them at Ewood.

We're gonna have to do it the hard way. Looks like Chelsea and United will have no trouble getting in the the QF's, we've a 50% chance of getting one of those, IF we make it that far.

[broadsword]

IT'S A BLEEDING FIX!

Bolton at home to arsenal, I think Bolton are capable of beating Arsenal at the Breezyblock.

Nice rovers picture

They're having a charmed life alright. Macclesfield, Forest and now Blackpool or Norwich. Not to forget Wycombe in the Beer Cup.

I agree with the posters saying it's the worst possible draw (or will be if l'Arse win), but don't agree it's necessarily Game Over, even at the Emirates.

SAD. i hope bolton beats arsenal at the reebok.

[ewoodblue]

I think best draw of the round ,as to be Prreston and City

Poor Blackpool , they really do have an Everest to climb.

[Paul]

After a few moments thought this could be OK. I'd take Bolton to beat Arsenal in the replay. We seem to be preforming well in the cup away from home, two wins, eight goals. So yes I fancy this one if we get Bolton. provided the tickets are a reasonable price I'd be persuaded to break my self-imposed boycott of the Reebok and go to that one.

[gazsimm]

I really do hope it's Bolton, i don't fancy us Arsenal

[Bobby G]

Disappointed. Would have taken Bolton before hand for the revenge factor but they got to win against Arsenal first then its "meet David Dunn"

[RevidgeBlue]

Something's getting a bit fishy the way the "big clubs" always seem to get a home draw.

The coloured lad drawing the home balls seemed to look in the drum before fishing out ball no 4 (Chelsea) first.

Other than that neither party seemed to be looking in and don't see how it could be fixed otherwise.

Looking forward to possibly going to the Emirates stadium again, and we should defend a bit better with Nelsen back.

MY MATE TXT ME WITH SAME THING HE SAID ..CAMBELL IS LOOKING AT THE BALLS BEFORE HE DRAWS THEM OUT

[MarkBRFC]

So if the replay is on 14th Feb, that AGAIN leaves us with 2/3 days to sort out tickets, etc for this one.

Why is the reply so late isnt it usually 10 days after the first game?

[speeeeeeedie]

If we play Bolton we have a good chance of going through.

If we play Arsenal we are done. No Van Persie though, so it won't be that bad.

[Paul]

We really need to play Bolton. This match will be sandwiched between the two Leverkusen games, and we don't need a long trip to London and a possible stuffing during that week.

Could be a good week:

14th Leverkusen

17/18th Bolton (hopefully)

22nd Leverkusen
