Bradford v Fulham would be dire from a viewing perspective and would be dire from an atmosphere perspective with virtually no away fans there!! But I do agree that they should have been rewarded with one of the game regardless. At the end of the day there are 5 of the 8 games live on tv and they should have had one of those spots!!
Looking at the draw, Blackburn v Stoke (assuming they get through) could be interesting. There really are no standout ties in this round, just the way the balls fell I suppose, but there could have been some much better games had they come out differently.

Stoke did get through, SCO. They won at Spotland on Monday night, 4-1.

Missed that one!!! That would be an interesting game. Really the tv companies should be honour-bound to show the games where lower league teams face prem teams at home, that is what the cup is all about!!

I don't like how BT Sports pick the best games and the BBC have to make do with the Ok games.

I would assume they paid more for their package than the Beeb did, so get first dibs!!
I suppose. The BBC are picking the wrong games to broadcast if they want cup upsets.
