Hopefully United and L'arsenal will draw each other, who does everyone fancy? Dingles? or shall we save that for the two legged semi's?

[bennyboyt11]

watford for me please!

I want the six-fingered,banjo-playing,knuckle-dragging,dingles in the semis then we can take away their chance of going to Wembley at the last minute.

[Tom]

I think we'll end up with Spuds away, personally any of the four lesser teams will do me but Burnley would be nice.

[Anti-Dingle-Brigade]

Spurs, Arsenal and Man U will all mysteriously be drawn apart and the bloke pulling the balls out of the pot will be in hospital with 3rd degree burns on his fingers.

[Rover in Liverpool]

Burnley away would be great!

[67splitscreen]

It must be time for technology to take over.

Something similar to the way the lottery is drawn, IMO.

No need for a couple of old has beens, making more money, for doing sweet F all.

[Ben-2000]

Burnley away would be great!

I agree but then there would be hassle/worry about getting tickets... so Burnley at home for me please - let's knock the inbreds off their Carling Cup perch

[all you need is duff]

Does anyone know what week the ties will be played in?

[Tris]

Does anyone know what week the ties will be played in?

w/c December 1st (so Tuesday 2nd or Wednesday 3rd)

[Rover9]

Arsenal v Man U

Stoke v Spurs

ROVERS v Watford/Derby

Dingles v Watford/Derby

Now that would be ideal as it would give us both one hell of a chance to get to the semi's and a dream double header to show them their place both on their patch and ours

[Hughesy]

Derby at Home, followed by Dingles in semi's.

Just watching North West Tonight and some random Burnley fan in a very depressing shopping centre was shouting 'get us back in the premiership, back where we belong' ( anyone spot his mistake?)

I want them in the next round the sooner the better for me.

He can't use capital letters?

[allrovertheworld]

He can't use capital letters?

NO THATS NOT THE ANSWER.

[bazza]

Spurs, United, Arsenal............No thanks.

Derby County, Stoke City, Watford.......Yes please; preferably away!

Burnley? A side that can thrash Chelsea at the bridge? No thanks.

My right cheek has a lump in it...............It's my tongue

[rovgers]

My ideal draw would be

Rovers v Derby

Burnley V Watford

Man Utd V Arsenal

Stoke V Spurs

And the semi's to be

Rovers V Burnley

Spurs V Arsenal

No doubt we'll get Utd, Arsenal or Spurs away!!

[Mr. E]

No doubt we'll get Utd, Arsenal or Spurs away!!

Those are the exact scenario we need to avoid. Anything else, even Spurs at home, I think we can handle.

[chocky]

You don't honestly believe that The F.A.'s two glory teams will be drawn together in the quarter finals..get the heavy draw balls out...bet we get United...

I see two mistakes.

[MarkBRFC]

I presume out tie will be on Wed 3rd of December seeing as we at Portsmouth the previous Sunday.

Watford, Derby or Burnley at Ewood for me.

Wed 3 December has been confirmed on the official MB.

[JC4LAB]

Man U is good for us at anytime...but I would like to see Ince to take us the Semis and give him a confidence boost in his first season.

[philipl]

Numbers 1 and 5 will be on lego bricks...

[American]

My simplistic math tells me there is a 12.5% chance that Arsenal and United will be drawn together.

Of course, when they aren't, it is going to be down to conspiracy.
