    I usually watch them even if we’re not in involved, but given the nature of the defeat on Saturday, ie, we should’ve won very comfortably. I’m just so peed off I can’t do it

    Let’s face it - unless it’s a lower league side they are getting beat by whoever they play. Worst team to come to Oakwell twice this season.

    I say it every time we go out, but it doesn't matter who Bristol draw, it would be an entirely different draw if we were in it.

    Rovers got Ipswich away. I assume we'd have been the same ball as them? If so, probably dodged a bullet there - Ipswich might be in the Prem this season but we've played there loads (as recently as 2 years ago) and they'd have battered us.

    Morecambe to Chelsea too. Accrington going to Liverpool is brilliant. I hope they milk it.

    That’s the best FA Cup 3rd round in years.

    My picks for TV:

    Tamworth v Spurs
    Chelsea v Morecambe
    Liverpool v Accrington
    Man City v Salford

    They’ll put Arsenal v Man U on though

    Would it? I thought the ball number you get is based on the match number you were from the previous round. So in the third round, the first 44 balls are the teams that joined in the third round and the other 20, from number 45 - 64 are the 2nd round winners by match number.

    How else would it have worked in the past with replays when both clubs were still in it.

    As far as I know, we would have been the same ball number as Bristol were and would have got Ipswich.

    The 4 ties you've chosen will be so one sided that they'd make for boring television whereas Arsenal v Man Utd will be a genuinely competitive match
