So close to Pompey away there I'm fucking gutted. 

 

Piss easy draw the should be. 

 

My guess was nearly right, thought it was on for you mate.

Mixture of kids and returning squad players. 

 

A few of the lads should be back to be mixed in.

Didn't souness get sacked after we lost to Bristol city in 94? At home? Nice bit of added incentive to beat them. Not for souness, but the cunts beat us at ours!

[Dr Nowt]

Souness will have flinched when he saw Bristol City.

 

Brian Tinnion just went through his mind’s eye.

[alles ist gut]

Fearless prediction: TSOP won’t have any for this.

[Lee909]

Hopefully Shrewsbury do them and save us from endless replays of the games and 'can they cause the upset again' 

[dockers_strike]

Nice payday for either Bristol City or Shrewsbury. If we play Shrewsbury, Id hope the club let them keep our share of the gate receipts.

Repping you too much. Both of us are gammon pervs, I reckon.

4th round?? How many rounds are in the fuckin thing anyway??

[Chocoholic]

As the balls got fewer, I fully expected us to be getting Man City, who were also still in the pot. Thankfully it didn't happen.

Assumed Bristol but hadn't realised the original drawn match was at Bristol , so could go either way.

Yep. We drew both of them in the FA Cup under him. Beat Rovers in the replay after drawing at Twerton Park on our way to the trophy in 92.

No. He decided to resign which Moores accepted.

Bristol City need to catch up in the Championship to make the play offs, they'll rest players in their replay away to Shrewsbury, so hopefully we get the Division one team to play.

There's loads of rounds even before the league teams get involved in round one.

Like Everton qualifying for the qualifiers of the Champions League... then failing to qualify.

[dockers_strike]

PL sides enter at the 3rd Round Proper, so called because there are other qualifying rounds. It takes 6 wins for a team to win the cup from and including the 3rd Round making 6 rounds in all.

[Harry Squatter]

Glad we've got someone different. Thought we'd get drawn against man city away. See they get their usual home draw against lower league opposition.

Yep, Port Vale at home in R3 and now Fulham in R4 at home. No warm ball there, eh?

Urgh. Horrendous days. As awful a manager for us as he was brilliant a footballer. Almost destroyed the club.
