FA Cup: Third Round Draw (Sunday 8th)

[Raleigh Chopper]

Arsenal v spurs only decent tie. Boring draw.

 

[Blackadder]

that 6k was almost your home average that year before all the Amex Jcl's
Regardless you got tonked 5-0 so I would have been happy for you to have 15k there to witness the slaughter

what on earth are you doing on our Cup draw thread? Is there not one on your forum?

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Arsenal v spurs only decent tie. Boring draw.

Swansea going to Old Trafford to beat Man Utd will be quite entertaining.

 

[Guy Fawkes]

That's fair enough.

My point is that how ever minor it may seem have the third round draw on at the same time isn't very clever, third. Round draw used to be one of the key dates, it seems a shame to have it on at the same time as a big pl match

Big match, really? - I can't even tell you who is playing now in the PL

At least this should give the usual suspects to start numerous threads about why they won't pay Barber for their seats.

Over to you Rev and Das.

Reading fans are just as excited as we are! http://hobnob.royals.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=121457&start=20

 

[DarrenFreemansPerm]

So what price do we expect these tickets to be?

 

[Goring-by-Seagull]

I'll be paying £28 I imagine.

 

[JOLovegrove]

Least they are beatable. Wouldn't mind a replay really as at the Uni here.

Crap tie against a crap side at a craphole ground.

Don't know what to say about that assessment.

Slade playing against his old team Yeovil. Good luck Orient.

 

[Rookie]

What a dull draw (imagine Reading are feeling exactly the same). Ticket prices will be interesting, too high and we could quite easily have a sub 20k attendance

He's already been put in his place by another Royal

And Mustafa has started the ball rolling.

 

[brightonmark1234]

i think the prices will be league prices

Don't know what to say about that assessment.

"Really? I think it looks pretty damn stunning, and for a modern day stadium at least they've tried to be different from the identikit model (e.g. Madejski Stadium)."

I agreed with this one though

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

If the club doesn't price it at £25 a ticket or less there'll be less than 15k turning up for this game.
