I would prefer 5 v 4 - but you just know if it came out we would lose the replay!

Nightmare draw has to be 9 v 4.

Not many of those I wouldn't call a good draw home or away,for a good day out how about 1,2,3,5,6,8,14,15 or 16. Pretty much the same teams at home although 9,11 & 13 would all give us a fighting chance. Great 2nd half performance yesterday but I do wish we had gone **** or bust in the last 5/10 minutes as a late winner was always our best hope of making the next round & they looked shaky when we attacked them.

So we've got a 1 in 3 chance of a massive draw (I'm including Leicester as a massive pull along with Chelsea, Spurs, Man U, Man C).
1 in 5 chance of a terrible draw (Wigan, Cov, Mill/Roch).

Perhaps we should win the replay first.

BT sport normally show 2 replays.Notts game now has to be the one for a more likely upset along with Birmingham

I think Spurs v Newport will be first choice, then it's a toss up between our game and Birmingham v Huddersfield for the second pick. If 3 games are televised, then surely we have more appeal than Rochdale v Millwall?

Hopefully B'ham v Hudders is too closely matched with no giant killing potential. A possible upset with Swans v Notts may be more attractive?? Hope so anyway.

I imagine BT Sport/BBC are waiting for the draw to be made before they make their final pick for the 2 ties to be televised (I assume there are only 2 but I suppose they could have one on a Monday or Thursday and go for 3).

If the winners of B'ham v Huddersfield would go to Man U in round 5 then you imagine that would nudge up the probability for that being televised. You would think Spurs v Newport is nailed on for one of the spots regardless.
