Some of those Marines are pretty tough:

Fantastic draw for both clubs. Marine will make a load of money, just a shame for their fans if they're not allowed in. GGreat for us as well - Dele might get a game, Lamela or Winks captain, Sanchez and then a load of the 'lads' - Cirkin, White, Scarlett, Clarke, Whiteman etc. when it's 1-1 at 78 minutes, we'll bring Kane, Hojbjerg and Son on and win 4-1.

That was my first thought. It could be a brilliant day for them, and IMO what the early rounds of the FA Cup are all about, and you have to feel for them if nobody can be there. As you say, it's a great draw for us as well, I have no actual evidence to back this up but it feels like we're always playing PL sides in the Cup. I wouldn't complain if we had an easy run into the quarterfinal or so.

Marine should make enough money to last them 5 years, this will be picked up for TV. The only shame, is that the Marine boys are not coming to our stadium. I know they probably think being at home will help them, but these boys may never get a chance to play in a premier league stadium again

As well as being humourous....are there no replays this season?Thats a shame for lower league earners if so.I guess if there was to be crowds,they may have switched venue?many do for a few extra years money.

But lets not forget,they are fucking scousers!!!!

 

[Don Diaz]

If switching grounds was an option, and I owned Marine FC, I would 100% take it. Plus our coaches wheels won't get nicked.

Seen quite a bit of Wycombe this season since they've come up to the Championship--not much quality, but very big and physical (as they've been for a while now).

My local team! When we played that game at WHL in the cup a couple of years ago when they nearly beat us, I got a last minute invite to a box full of Wycombe people in the old West Stand. Cracking game but being in a box is a bit shit tbh. No atmosphere.

 

[J.spurs]

They're very likable--Gareth Ainsworth is quite the character and of course Akinfnewa. Definitely rooting for them to stay up, they're a colorful team.

They were lucky to come up last season though....to be honest they’re really a top of league 1 type standard. They don’t have any real money.

 

[Dave]

One of those tricky tie's. Should have enough to get past them but they'll be tough enough I'd say.

 

[USspur]

Theyre 24th in the championship, which means nothing. I expect a 1-0 win after scoring in the 25' and promptly parking the bus.

 

[Don Diaz]

We'll win this comfortably.

Play the kids...

I'd say he'll play the same 11 that started v Marine.(if there's no injuries). Jose doesn't usually go all out kids when there's the sniff of a big shiny cup in the air.

Are we home or away to the winner of Everton/Sheffield Wednesday? Assuming we beat Wycombe

Away.

Really want Akinfenwe to score. But two from Ndombele in response.

Easy, we play Sanchez and watch him get crushed by this absolute beast.

They were pretty dominant throughout the season, but cocked it up towards the end and lost 8 of their final 13 or 14 games. Automatic promotion was a nailed on certainty which they somehow managed to cock up.
