Good draw?
That's what I thought. It's definitely doable, we have a big performance in us and their minds are likely to be elsewhere.They need to be focusing on the league so hopefully they put the kids out and we can get a result. But its not a great draw.
Er no why will there be fans present ?That is a decent draw when we are home to a PL side.
Realistic chance of an upset.
Assume there will be 2000 fans present too.
Not in my opinion. We can't rely on tv or fan revenues so the club is more reliant on prize money for winning. I was hoping for a L2 team to maximise our chance of winning the bigger prize pots in R3.Good draw?

Doubt it will be on TV. Lots of other glamour ties in that round.
Yes they finished with 9 men and we just about hung on!Remember that PL match against them?
That was a rough day. Willie Johnston skinned us. Of course, six months later he was sent home from the World Cup branded a drugs cheat.Hopefully we get revenge for getting beat at The Hawthorns back in 78.
Bloody hell I went to that! 4-1? Loads of aggro outside?That was a rough day. Willie Johnston skinned us. Of course, six months later he was sent home from the World Cup branded a drugs cheat.
Went on the football special train.Bloody hell I went to that! 4-1? Loads of aggro outside?
That's the one. Apparently no one had a watch. They were constantly asking us for the time. I left it to my mate from Burton who had a sort of Midlands accent.Bloody hell I went to that! 4-1? Loads of aggro outside?
Alongside Ally Brown.Is Astle on the bench, or starting?

The away section emptied before the game ended and me and my mates from school were the only Pool fans left when we scored - according to my memory! Anyway we went berserk obviously and got stared at by the west Brom fans on the other side of the railings and we didn't expect to reach the car in one piece but somehow avoided that, i think we actually missed the fighting by staying to the final whistle.That's the one.

Bob Hatton scored from close range with about five minutes left. I saw it, but didn't manage to avoid getting a slap round the back of the head on the way back to the FB double decker.The away section emptied before the game ended and me and my mates from school were the only Pool fans left when we scored - according to my memory!

Can anyone honestly say they saw our goal? It was at the other end of the ground. Ainscow maybe? Walsh?
I reckon they admired the boing boing credentials of me and my mates and chose to slap someone else round the head. Possibly. Sorry about that. I don't think they did the boing boing thing before then, they were probably so impressed with our celebration that they adopted a version of it.Bob Hatton scored from close range with about five minutes left.
