FA cup 4th round draw 2012/13

by DJ Legless Mon Jan 07, 2013 3:21 am

Norwich v Luton Town

Oldham Athletic v Mansfield/Liverpool

Macclesfield Town v Wigan/Bournemouth

Derby County v Blackburn Rovers

Hull City/Leyton Orient v Barnsley

Middlesbrough v Aldershot Town

Millwall v Aston Villa

Leeds United/Birmingham City v Tottenham

Brighton v Swansea/Arsenal

Crystal Palace/Stoke v Man City

West Ham/Man Utd v Fulham/Blackpool

Southend United/Brentford v Chelsea

Reading v Sheffield United

Huddersfield Town v Leicester City

QPR/West Brom v Sheffield Wednesday/MK Dons

Bolton/Sunderland v Cheltenham/Everton

As a neutral it is hard to find a tie that sticks out at you but I can imagine for fans of these clubs they might seem tasty.

What are your thoughts and predictions of the draw?

by Duty281 Mon Jan 07, 2013 3:33 am

Maybe Leeds home to Tottenham if they win their replay? Nightmare for ITV and ESPN!

by **Crimey** Mon Jan 07, 2013 3:47 am

Brighton v Swansea/Arsenal stands out because of the philosophies of the clubs being very similar, not that I'd bother watching that one.

by NickisBHAFC Mon Jan 07, 2013 3:53 am

Happy with that draw. A big Premiership side coming to the AMEX. Hopefully they put up more of a fight than Newcastle Laugh

Games that should be on ITV IMO

Brentford/Southend vs Chelsea
Stoke/Palace vs Man City

Macc vs Wigan could well be on TV.

Macc vs Bournemouth certainly wouldn't.

Perhaps best for Macc then if Wigan win and they can make more cash from round 4, albeit with a reduced chance of getting to round 5.

Think Millwall v Villa could be a tv game

by **Hero** Mon Jan 07, 2013 8:20 am

I reckon Palace/Stoke v City will be on the box, can't see Macc getting live airtime even if its Wigan, no real stand out ties though.

Norwich vs Luton ?

My beloved Oldham v Liverpool? Potential upset after our result at Forest Very Happy

Forgot about that game

It should be that game and the Chelsea game on ITV then IMO.

With 'Ice Station Zebra' being one of the coldest grounds in the country, especially now we only have three stands is not a place they may fancy coming to in January. Hopefully our boys will be up for it and put in a good performnace and maybe a win or draw. trip back to Anfield and more money for the club would be good plus TV money as well.

We have caused a couple of upsets in recent times, Man City (1-0) back in 2005, Everton away (1-0) 5 years ago and now forest away a couple of days ago. Yahoo

by **Crimey** Tue Jan 08, 2013 11:36 pm

Yeah, I think Oldham v Liverpool will be on TV for the potential upset and the possibility of another Suarez controversy.

by NickisBHAFC Wed Jan 09, 2013 6:14 am

Oldham vs Liverpool confirmed for ITV. 4pm kick off Sunday 27th January

by hornbloweroafc Wed Jan 09, 2013 6:44 am

Not being funny but how is that Man Utd/West Ham vs Fulham/Blackpool game on TV? If that ends up as West Ham vs Fulham my god that will be crap.

Norwich vs Luton not being on TV is of no surprise with it being at our place, reckon if it was at Luton it would be in with a good shout. Surprised to see Birmingham/Leeds vs Spurs in ahead of Brighton vs Arsenal/Swansea

by **Hero** Thu Jan 10, 2013 10:58 am

Simply put the reason the Man Utd/West Ham v Blackpool/Fulham game is on the TV is because Man Utd may be in it and Man Utd equals viewers.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Thu Jan 10, 2013 11:00 am

Well I hope West Ham win just to put egg on the TV companies faces. Pick the best ties, not the big teams. I mean seriously would they get more viewers for Man Utd vs Fulham or Brighton vs Swansea/Arsenal? I know which one I'd watch and you know I hate this fannying about passing on the floor crap Laugh

To be fair I hate how much they are on but I always end up watching the whole thing. Just because they might lose that is though.

by NickisBHAFC Thu Jan 10, 2013 10:04 pm

Shocked Millwall vs Aston Villa isnt on as well, that should be quite a good game.

by Shot 21 LCFC Wed Jan 23, 2013 5:26 am

Being as this 4th round is on this weekend, seems to be a good time to continue this discussion.

We have Huddersfield away and I fear the worst. We have won 5 on the bounce, they havent won since November. Also we have done the double over them in the league (including a 6-1 mauling at the King Power Stadium) so by the law of averages I cant see us winning. The only saving grace is Foxes loanees Neil Danns and Jermaine Beckford (who has a pehonmenal scoring record in the FA Cup) wont be eligible to play.

by Duty281 Sun Jan 27, 2013 4:34 am

Luton have beaten Norwich 1-0 away, the first non-league side to beat a Premiership team for 24 years! Well done Luton. clap

City and Arsenal both squeaked through, QPR lost 2-4 at home to MK Dons which qualifies as another cupset. And Giggs has just scored, 1-0 United after 2 minutes.

by Duty281 Mon Jan 28, 2013 1:12 am

Brentford 2-2 Chelsea, Brentford in the lead twice but couldn't hold on.

by Duty281 Mon Jan 28, 2013 2:56 am

Another cupset, this one the biggest of the lot. Leeds 2-1 Spurs.

by GSC Mon Jan 28, 2013 3:05 am

Nah Luton bigger

by Duty281 Mon Jan 28, 2013 3:07 am

Oldham 1-0 Liverpool after 3 minutes!

by NickisBHAFC Mon Jan 28, 2013 3:14 am

You wont get any bigger than Norwich 0-1 Luton in a long time tbf

But still if Oldham can beat Liverpool that would be one heck of an upset. Given Oldham's poor run of form in league one and the fact there playing Liverpool football club.

Sorry, I meant the biggest in terms of Tottenham being the biggest club to be knocked out of the FA Cup so far. Obviously, Luton beating Norwich is the biggest cupset for this year.

by Duty281 Mon Jan 28, 2013 3:18 am

Booo, Suarez equalises.

by Thomond Mon Jan 28, 2013 3:27 am

Good win for Leeds, losing Becchio could be a big big blow for them Somma can finish well but that's it. Need to hang onto Becchio, Leeds have lost so many talented guys already like.

by Duty281 Mon Jan 28, 2013 3:58 am

2-1 Oldham at HT, cupset back on!

by Duty281 Mon Jan 28, 2013 4:10 am

Oh my, 3-1 Oldham!

For those who like these things the Cup draw rehearsal just threw up Arsenal v Luton & MK Dons v Man Utd. The real thing on the way soon...

by Duty281 Mon Jan 28, 2013 4:39 am

What a goal for Liverpool and Joe Allen, a volley on the edge of the box which takes a massive deflection and in! 3-2, 11 minutes left.

by Duty281 Mon Jan 28, 2013 4:57 am

3-2 FT. Well done to Oldham. clap

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Mon Jan 28, 2013 5:06 am

If Man Utd vs Reading is on any TV station there is something seriously wrong with this world

by NickisBHAFC Mon Jan 28, 2013 5:26 am

I love the fa cup FA cup 4th round draw 2012/13 3559488474

by TRUSSMAN66 Mon Jan 28, 2013 5:29 am

Feel for Luton and MK dons though..
