Eloquent lot, these Stoke fans:

"Fuck sake"
"crap"
"shit"
"Bollocks"
"BUMSTICKS"
"Bastard"
"Shite.."
"oh fiddlesticks."

Particularly liked that last one.

Thank God it's at home. All that time wasting drying a ball with a towel.

I mean really, what's that about ? Why don't the opposition demand so much extra time to throw the ball in ?

I reckon one team will take the piss out of Stoke with the "ball drying" routine and it will cost them.

They are the worst team in league football.

I hope we destroy them.

I just wanted a home draw, the fact we have avoided Chelsea, Villa and Spuds is a big bonus and can see Spuds dropping away with there extra fixture in cup (hope so anyway's)

Home draw against a weaker team. One step nearer the Final as long as we play to our strengths.

Glad we avoided Chelsea, Spurs & Villa.

Spuds won't make the next round.

Having Vieira on the squad might be quite handy.

Hope he is fit for two games in four days!

Great draw IMO...we can beat anyone at COMS...just need to watch Delaps throws!!


Naw mate! .. Delap is only a threat at the brittania because they've made the pitch there as narrow as possible to accomodate his long throws + ball boys with hot and cold running towels!
Our pitch is much wider and he can barely reach the 6 yard box.
Take that attribute away and he's crap!

I really like the sound of this...

With the other three of the big four now out of the FA Cup, holders Chelsea were handed a Fifth Round home tie against lower division opposition when they welcome the Championship's Cardiff City, losing finalists in 2008.

Second-favourites Manchester City were rewarded for their 4-2 defeat of Scunthorpe United with the visit of Stoke City, who conquered Arsenal in Sunday's early game.

But the plum draw of the round, and the one bound to contain the most needle was Southampton's pairing with Portsmouth at St Mary's. The South-Coast derby will be rejoined for the first time since the 2004-5 season, when Saints were relegated from the Premier League. Southampton, in League One these days, may fancy their chances against the Premier League's basement club.

Sven Goran Eriksson's Notts County, the last League Two club left in the draw, need to replay against Wigan Athletic, with whom they drew 2-2 on Saturday, for the chance to visit Fulham in the last 16.

Aston Villa, already at Wembley as Carling Cup finalists, face a trip to either Wolves or Crystal Palace, who also drew 2-2 on Saturday.

Nigel Clough's Derby County have a further chance to put an indifferent Championship campaign to the back of their thoughts with a home time against Birmingham City, who knocked out last season's finalists Everton.

Spurs and Leeds United face a replay of their tea-time thriller for the right to travel to Owen Coyle's new charges Bolton Wanderers.

And Reading, vanquishers of two Premier League teams in Liverpool and Burnley, now face a team from the Championship in West Brom, who must travel to the Madejski.

Still no date/time for this although they are usually announced fairly quickly - game is less than 3 weeks away.

According to http://www.livesportontv.com/football/all-fixtures Setanta Ireland are showing FAC5 games at 1230, 1500 and 1700 on Sat 13 Feb, and 1300 and 1530 on Sun 14 Feb. So, ignoring the 1500 Sat game that won't be shown live here, that makes 4 out of 8 games live on Sky/ITV. Reckon we must be in with a shout.

OK, this is for real, my daughter is some sort of freaky witch doctor.

I said, not 3 minutes before the draw, 'Go out and sort Stoke at home please'. She left the room and returned, said she had fixed it. I nearly fell over when it came out.

Choice draw for us I reckon.
