It's viewers the TV companies want and Man Utd draw the most viewers. End of story.

Any chance that Lincoln cup game could be televised ?

A different kind of pasty
Bit of an odd choice picking the winner of Plymouth Liverpool against Wolves. If Plymouth win, is Plymouth v Wolves really a big tv game?

Least attractive tie in the whole round
Hardly. United are arguably the biggest club in the world. It's a local derby against recent winners who have fallen from grace. Plus it gives Dave Whelan a platform to tell us all about how he broke his leg in the cup final.........again!

Any replay certainly would be.

The local paper is saying there is a possibility of the BBC/BT Sport picking up the game for the Monday night slot.....

Lincoln City's FA Cup earnings could be about to pass half-a-million pounds.
Prior to last night's epic FA Cup replay victory over Ipswich Town, the Imps had already made in excess of £300,000 from prize and TV money.
The dramatic 1-0 victory over the Tractor Boys saw the club pocket another £67,000 for reaching round four.
And if City's fourth round tie with Brighton is screened live, as is being rumoured, the club will receive another £144,000 in TV money.
Most of the televised ties in round four have been unveiled but a Monday night spot remains available.
Could that be filled by the Imps and Chris Hughton's Seagulls?
The BBC were certainly impressed by Danny Cowley's side, with Match of the Day pundits Trevor Sinclair and Terry Butcher highly complementary of the Imps.
If the Brighton tie is selected by the BBC or BT Sport, it would mean four Lincoln matches in a row would have been televised, as the club's next two National League games against Dover Athletic on Friday and Barrow next Tuesday will be screened live by BT.

Why would anyone want to see Plymouth or Liverpool at home to Wolves ? That doesn't make any sense

You left out the glamour tie Man Utd v Wigan live Sunday BBC 4pm
There won't be many players involved in both games so I wouldn't worry too much.

If there is still a Monday night slot available then ours is the obvious choice. Logic would say that that would be unfair given we have a game on the Thursday, however we have already shown that we don't play the first team anyway so we have a weak case on this.

Did he. Do you know what, I'm not sure he's ever mentioned that. He really should.

To be fair I always thought their game against Wigan would be on. Cup holders against recent previous winners, North West Derby, emotional return of Warren Joyce to Old Trafford.

I would absolutely LOVE it if Plymouth pulled off an upset tonight then whoever chose that match would have boiled, fried, poached and rather a lot of scrambled egg on their face.
