Good draw. Fun day out, no shame in getting turned over, chance of unlikely glory, probably free to concentrate on the league.

Forget it. All about Barnsley for me now.

Difficult game for Mourinho, he'll play some of his fringe players who will be desperate to please and may well try and get forward despite the special ones orders.

Vyds and Lawrence should pick them off easily on the counter.

0-3 Vydra frgs.

The problem for us will be that it will come at the end of a very busy period of games with us at home to sheff Utd on the preceding Monday so we may well be resting players who are ? Tired ? Carrying knocks ? Suspended? Etc and we basically play more competitive games than they do if you know what I mean.

If Gary doesn't play his most in form team and go for the win he deserves all the abuse i'll give him when i see him on the 3rd floor of Debenhams in the January sales buying his Jasper Conran jumpers.

My recollection is that the revenue is split a third each to the two teams and also the FA. Man Utd automatically charge their season ticket holders the extra for FA Cup games whether they turn up or not (the joys of being a glory hunter) so I reckon we'll end up with a good half million, maybe more, from the game. Another reason it's a good draw. 

Win and then get even more from an away tie at Arsenal in the next round!
