FA Cup 6th Round Draw

[fineintent]

Newcastle vs Tottenham/Notts Forest

Southampton/Brentford vs Manchester Utd

Bolton vs Arsenal/Sheff Utd

Burnley/Blackburn vs Leicester City

Fuck on the Newcastle away front, hooray for Brentford if they beat Southampton.

I'm vaguely happy with the draw...

Out of the 14 ties we could have had this is better than Arsenal home and away, Man Utd home and away and Bolton (probably) on Bolton's recent form.

I'd pay £1000 today if I knew it would guarantee a Spurs vs Arsenal final - it's what it's pushing towards.

I'm glad to see the Rovers get Leicester City after we knock out the scum, not onlt does it mean we'll have beaten Burnley, but it'll be a big piss up for me and my mates from home when the Rovers play my 'hometown' team

[9 to 5]

Well Leicester is the best draw I guess we could of gotten, just over Soton/Brentford. It means I get to see a fave of mine in David Connolly play at Ewood (a CM god for me, yeah) and a good chance in getting to the semi's.

[Jonny D]

Good draw for Man United, sould ease into the quarter-finals.

[supergrass]

Fantastic draw for Brentford. I'm going to the Southampton game again, the players have got an even better incentive to win that game now. Not that I'd expect them to get anything from Manchester United, but it'd be a great occasion if they can make it there.

Newcastle vs. tottenham could be a good game the rest dont see too exciting

[FLiam]

I don't like Bolton.

[Guest Red Devil]

I think Newcastle will beat Spurs after they knock out Notts Forrest. I think Shearer is going to finally win the FA Cup this season and end his career on a high.

I'm fairly confident that we can beat either Soton or Brentford. Should be a formality really.

If Bolton stay on their recent form then they have got a great chance but i think Arsenal will be to strong for them, although Bolton did beat them this season.

I think Blackburn will probably beat Burnly and then beat the foxes to go through to the next round.

I'm predicting a Man Utd v Arsenal quater Final encounter and i think Man U and Newcastle will end up in the final.

[Different Cloud]

Arsenal will win it.

[jrhodes]

I'm praying for a Blackburn vs. Bolton FA Cup final. Gives me the chance to make a trip to the Millenium Stadium for the first time since we won the league cup.

Thank fuck Southampton will molester Brentford in the replay. Not that I'm bitter or anything, I just think it's retarded when a Referee sends off a player after 7 minutes, only for the red card to be taken away the next day.

Same here, for many reasons. Mainly because I will be going with my dad for his first match since the 70's. Aside he will be for Bolton.

But for the neutral it should be an exciting final and for the fans, mega.

[Sam]

Diego I can tell you now that Manchester United will not meet Arsenal in the quarter finals. Why you ask because thats what yesterdays draw was for. The next round is the semi finals.

[AJ]

No-one other than Arsenal and ManU can win it in my opinion. I don't get why some people think Newcastle have a chance, just because it's Shearer's last season? Pft.

[public enemy]

Newcastle are only up for it because realistically its the only cup they can win this season, that and the fact that they put out Chelsea.

Still, United and Arsenal are favourites to win it.

Good draw, would have prefered Leicester to have drawn Bolton - but there is a good chance of us getting to the semi's going on our performance against Charlton.

Aye, any team with super David Connolly has a chnace against Rovers.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Newcastle will go out.

Spurs'll scrape past Forest, then draw away at Newcastle then actually give them a tonking at home as we hit 70 minutes of Tottenham at their best and Newcastle at their worst.

[Farmer Reil]

Meh. Usually I support the team that knocks out my team (better to lose to the eventual winners, right?), and if they get knocked out then I support the team that knocked THEM out..

...but that means supporting Man Utd :'(

So I've pretty much lost interest now. Newcastle/Spurs should be interesting though..
