i think you can change the fulham spurs one to fulham with 30 mins to go 4 down. what a draw for crawley town.

With all due respect to Notts County I think Villa will be facing City but you never know

I was as made-up as the Crawley Town chairman when their name came out to play United! Looking forward to seeing loads of new faces who'll enjoy one of the greatest days of their supporting lives, lose, lose or lose! lol!

Seriously though, good luck to them and I'm sure they won't get beaten by a stupid score, especially as United go to Marseilles four days later for what Ferguson will regard as a far more crucial match, hence the probable motley crew of reserves, has-beens and never-will-bes who'll line up against the Conference leaders.

Elsewhere, Manchester City (Notts County not-withstanding) against Villa looks the tie of the round, and Leyton Orient v Arsenal is another traditional David v Goliath tie.

Who did Liverpool get???

spurs

I hope they show the Man United v Crawley and Leyton Orient v Arsenal matches on TV. Thats what the FA Cup is all about, matches featuring underdogs against favourites. Two great david vs goliath style ties.

I think they're sure to show those two ties, Regenerated! I just hope the United v Crawley one is on a Saturday, else it costs me good money in lost pay to have to miss my Sunday shift!

The Man City v Aston Villa tie, should it happen, will surely also be televised, but they're the only ones that for one reason or other stick out for the neutrals.

Ah there's no doubt about that:

Although to be fair ITV/ESPN have to show United v Crawley
