Lovely.

What a boring draw, none of the big teams drawn against each other. Could make for interesting semis though if the favorites go through on R5.

I am pretty happy with Sunderland / Southampton. Would have been better at home but we should be able to make it to the semis

Southampton in their own backyard would provide us with a big test as they have been in good form lately.

Hammers could repeat their demoliton at WHL again and Stoke now have a chance to revenge for the defeat at the last weekend.

I'm assuming it'll be Southampton with the form they're in.

They'll have real belief they can go all the way, so they will not field their second string team. But it'll be a big test for ours...

Southampton away should be a good test for our B team

[Jase 43,479]

Incidentally, we're also playing Southampton(H) and Sunderland(A) in the Premier League in December. So, we'll face either one TWICE in the space of 2 weeks.

And the Sunderland v Southampton tie in the 4th round will take place next Wednesday at 7.45pm UK time.

Southampton is in fine form.

Definitely a better test then Arsenal! :-)

I ABSOLUTELY hate the fact that we got another away match which is our third in this competition. Meanwhile some teams like Spuds are getting only home matches. The FA needs to find a way to guarantee a balance between the home and away fixtures for every team in the tournament and the same regulation should be applied for the FA cup as well..

Excuse me, but how can you ask to see FA finding a balance between the home & away games ?

As we have seen FA is full of clueless ex-manures staff. Therefore it´s almost impossible for any of them to think before they do anything.
