Now we've just been mocked by Adrian "Ate all the pies" Chiles. We aren't much of an incentive for Crawley supposedly.

Smarting after that draw westy.

Now hoping for a Crawley upset against the Rams and for us to progress to the 5th Round....and finally land our long awaited pay day.

I'm hoping its Derby.

+s..

- About 1000 Rams to come down
- ^ means better atmosphere
- if PB is still here, and we have the same players here, then we know we can do it.
- 4,000+ attendance
- Derby seem in a bit of freefall after a good start, they won't fancy a trip down here.
- Robbie Savage. I like him, but he'll no doubt be a scapegoat for some stick (wheres your caravan.. etc etc), and I can see him enjoying it.

-'s.

- more chance of getting knocked out


With Crawley...

+s..

- smaller opposition

-s...

- pressures on us, we'll be favourites (in the 4th round?! mental!)
- they will see it as a great chance of getting to the 5th round
- they'll probably knock us out
- they'll bring no away fans
- people won't turn out for it
- club won't get much money through revenue

Also, if it were to go to a replay, I know I'd prefer to go to Derby than Crawley!!

Im keeping my fingers crossed for Derby to win tomorrow TBH. Nick got all the reasons above ;-)

Still remember Benners making Robbie Sav look silly in the PSF, nutmegs FTW!

Well i'm happy it's Crawley. A game against Derby would have been...alright. But we'd likely have lost, and the rewards wouldn't have been that great.

Of course Crawley are a reasonable side and we might still lose , and the gate recipts will doubtless be smaller. But we have to have confidence in this group of players winning that game don't we? And we'd have the added pleasure of dumping Evans and Rayner on their fat arses. What we will lose out on in terms of money through the turnstiles, we have the opportunity to recoup (and more) in prize money.

The 5th Round is a real possibility now. The last 16 of the FA Cup! And, with there being every chance of us being the lowest ranked team in that draw, we'd have to have a decent chance of TV with even a moderately exciting game.

If we get to Round 5, we'd probably have more chance of an exciting draw than a dull one. Our time in the sunshine is coming...
