If we're going to get massacred, would be better coming from a PL team!

First, though. There is the little matter of winning the replay. Don't get carried away just yet, look at our home record this year. We may have a good record at home against lower division teams in the past, but when the Reading fans seem to think winning is the only option, what happens?

I'd like to see us get Tottenham at home as my nephew supports both Spurs and Reading.

Would be nice to test his loyalties.

As always for me to due to family connections, Spurs.

I would like to add that I am not tidus's nephew. At least, I don't think I am

We will be very fortunate to win the replay.

If we do I'd like Newport or Fleetwood away/Liverpool at home.

A good draw at least might mean a few more will turn out for the replay. Something like hull or Middlesbrough away will just about kill that though

They will need all the help they can get. I cannot believe they are charging a tenner for adults for the replay. Get some of the supporters back on side by charging a fiver for adults and kids free or something. Sure they'd take a loss on the initial ticket sale but they would make it up in food and drink sales etc. It would be a good news story too!

Don’t think the pricing is entirely down to the club, believe the FA have a say and that £10 is the cheapest an adult could expect in these later rounds. Anyone confirm?

regardless of that, pricing must be agreed between the two sides, since the away team get some of the gate for FA cup games, so its not as simple as us just deciding

Anybody at home, Man City would be good, they'd play their third youth team and still do us
