i'll start

2-2 Peterboro 86

The goal scored by the snow!

2-1 Liverpool 83

First trip to Anfield, expect to get tonked and was deliriously disappointed!

In recent years:

Liverpool 6-1 Brighton

Stoke 3-0 Brighton

3rd trip to Anfield. Expected to get tonked. Not so delirious this time but pleased we still scored more than them!!!



1984 away to Watford. Lost 3-1. Alas didn't get a ticket.

In 1984 - the year after our Cup final appearance - we lost 3-1 at Watford (after beating Liverpool in the 4th round).

One of the most famous ones was West Ham at home in 1933 (2-2, lost 1-0 in the replay). That was the season we failed to apply for exemption from the qualifying rounds - and played a total of 11 matches in the FA Cup, scoring 43 goals in the process, which must be some kind of record.

Wish it was in the EU
We've always seemed to get a difficult away tie in this round. I've counted 1960, 1983, 1984, 2011 and 2012 when we drew a top team and even Peterborough in 86 was awkward.

Statistically we should be due home tie.
