Already got my league tickets. Cup tickets here we go. They have to give 5,000 plus though!
Correct, JH - in the FA Cup, don't we get 15% of the home team's capacity? It's going to be more than 6,000 then.

15% of Villa Park is roughly 6500, so that's a minimum! Villa haven't sold out for rather a long time, so hopefully they'd give us even more than that. Definitely hoping to get a ticket, hopefully the process is less of a mess than the Blues fixture.

With the first two Q/F's drawn, its the team we wanted out of who was left, albeit a home draw would have been much better.

I've no doubt Villa will get a lift from their change of manager but hopefully the Baggies will continue to gel and progress under TP and have too much for them. Having said that, being a 'derby', current form may go out of the window.

The chance of a possible semi at Wembley against Bradford or Reading is a huge incentive for any of the other teams in the Q/F's.

Bring it on.

Great to see that our players have been watching the draw and getting excited about it on Twitter. Gardner's bragged that he's won one FA Cup quarter-final against Villa and he'll do it again, and Ideye seems stoked about the derby too.

Villa is not a bad fixture. Premiership and local derby so it makes us take it seriously whilst at the same time very winnable.

Big bonus is Arsenal v Man Utd as another big club will be eliminated should we get through.

I'm disappointed to be honest. Anything can happen in a Derby. As long as we win one of them i'll be happy. If it is one I prefer the league game because if they go on in the Cup it could be that they will suffer even more in the league. A win win for us as both ours and Viles priority is survival.
