[Archived] FA Cup 13/14

[Tom]

3rd round draw on ITV now

I'm guessing Cardiff away or a similar tough but unglamorous tie

[Amo]

It's gonna be Villa, isn't it?

Man. City (Home)

[Tom]

Home v city lol

[Majiball]

4th round here we come!

[Amo]

Vinjay will be pleased.

[Mike Graham]

May as well give Citeh the: Darren End; Jack Walker and the Riverrside.

We still will be unable to fill the BBE. 25K Citeh wallies and 5K Rovers fans.....what a bum day it will be.

I don't think I'ts a bad draw.

No expectations, therefore no further humiliation of our club and a few bob in till.

[chaddyrovers]

reckon the game will be TV. either ITV or BT Sport

[Tom]

Plus they may take us for granted and we can Appleton them

[Giant]

Great draw. Big crowd, make some money and then concentrate on promotion with no distractions. Perfect.

[West Yorks Rover]

Similar crowd to Leeds 20k if we do ok results wise until then. IMO.

If we do well up to then 22k. depends how people enjoy Boxing Day good performance and win, many will come back.

[Boner]

They'll put their reserves out and we'll do 'em. Match 1 on our fa cup winning dvd.

[Rover_Shaun]

Out of the league cup. The league is a bust and now the fa cup is something to forget already. Amazing season

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

Nobody gave us a chance at Arsenal last year either. That was a tougher draw.

[Mike Graham]

I have just spoken to Rovers new Head of Ticketing Information Telesales (Head TIT) and Balaji has asked for the game to be moved to Man City's Maine Road ground.

Why do we get such hard draws every year ? All I want is to see Rovers play in a Wembley final before I turn up my toes up.

Maine Road's now a housing estate. Or was that your joke ?

[West Yorks Rover]

The Rao's will love it, they'll think we're in the final if we beat City.

I bet they turn up in a fleet of Rollers.

I'll get the eggs out the fridge, they'll be nice and pungent by then.

My joke Jim. Bit like Ed Balls on Thursday ;-)

[Salgado Is A Hero]

I predict we'll do better than the last time they played here

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

You mean in the FA Cup.

[Mr. E]

How absolutely heartbreaking that Rovers are playing Man City.

Heartbreaking because not too long ago, we were a proper football club, a standard of quality and management, fighting around the European places - while City were some 2nd league stragglers yo-yoing in and out of the top division,and it would have been a good little game we would have won 3-0.

Now Man. City are a Champions League team, and we....well.

Thanks Venkys, again.

I think the joke's on Osbourne. Any sign of a recovery where you live ? There is where Iive, there were 5 jobs advertised in my local paper instead of the usual 3. There used to be 10 pages of jobs not that long ago.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

I just can't wait.

[magicalmortensleftpeg]

Shot to nothing. Probably prefer Man City at home then a midtable Championship team away. It could get humiliating but its hardly something we're unfamiliar with these days. Might get on TV at least.

[arbitro]

I hope it's on TV and I hope Rovers are sensible about ticket prices.
