If you just gave a quick glance at the draw you could be forgiven for thinking you were looking at a round of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy.

Or the early rounds of the league cup

Sunderland or Fulham at home, a good draw because we'll dick either of them at Valley Parade.

Bugger! Chelsea vs Fulham would've been good.

Anyway good luck to you lads whoever you get.

Could be.

I must admit I regard the early cup rounds as a bit of a nuisance, getting in the way of your league programme. But once you get as far as the fifth round it takes on a whole new meaning as you can see a chance of some real glory.

Downside being, of course , that should you go out the disappointment is crushing, whereas in rounds three or four you just shrug your shoulders and go, "Ah well.."

Err - not really!

God, that was boring, my lad fell asleep after 70 minutes.

My daughter started projectile vomiting, 5 minutes into the match. Perhaps she had a premonition!
