And for the hat-trick....northern away game or a non-league team at home would be good......

Sutekh Barrow away please.


^This. Last time we played Barrow was January 1972, the week before the FA Cup 4th round tie against Arsenal. Crowd was boosted to 11,000+ by the handout of vouchers to buy cup tickets. Barrow lost their league status at the end of that season, losing re-election and replaced by Hereford Utd.

According to Talk Reading the odds of drawing Huddersfield away three years in a row is 2,000,376/1 :?

Every United tie since 2000 has been chosen for TV.....with the Jaap angle, I can't see that changing!

What an utterly crap tie to get. Still at least there'll be a load of cash for playing it and we'll be on the telly (mind you what's the betting it'll be the first ManU fa cup tie since what seems like about 1990 not to be televised).

And then we can concentrate on the league.

+1.

Not as if we had a chance of winning the cup anyway , and in any case we are a beautiful blue and white banana skin for United. Will be epic.
