You’re comparing Championship football (23 games a season) to Peter Kay’s stand up tour, consider he hasn’t toured for years, plays a handful of gigs in a region etc …..your tongue must be sawdust on those boots Chaddy

EFL in Focus: Burnley v Rovers (YouTube Video) Nice little preview for everyone to start the weekend.

That’s not what he said at all, he said “cannot” and “his hands are tied” Why should it matter what others charge us anyway? Makes zero difference to what we’re discussing (our home attendances)

We're away from home on the 17th and the 26th so in reality we only have 1 home game before Christmas (PNE on the 10th) until this draw was made. Great excuse for some Christmas marketing. £10 adult and £1 kid should sell out lower tier BBE and most of JW with 5k Forest fans I'd imagine 18k or so on the gate. Could go for something like £5 for a season ticket holder or £5 if you buy a Preston ticket too. Got a month to advertise that and might help PNE walk ons too As others have said, it's literally a free, unexpected hit - which might help shift some half season tickets.

Sorry, you lost me at "Kane is average"

That's not what you said. You said it has to be agreed between the clubs. i.e. home fixture = away fixture. We can charge £5 for our fans, we'd have to do it for the away fans too but there is nothing about an agreement between the two clubs that is needed as you implied.

Yeah I had an exam the next day and decided not to go - wasn’t much revising going down when Kalinic put us 2-0 up! Anyway, Forest at home, about as boring as it gets from those teams. Hopefully a 2nd string team for them. Do they have many World Cup internationals they’d rest?

At least its not Villa again! Didn’t we play them like 6 times in one season under Allardyce.

Friday evening out and Sunday evening return @BigBarshould sort you out for a nice bank holiday. I’d imagine it’ll be the same slot as this one though, Sunday midday.

Southamptons appointment reminded me of this beauty….I always get great joy reading the comments back at when they sacked Adkins and got in Pochettino, well worth reading the replies…

I think a Liverpool tie would be better than the mid-table / bottom half clubs. They’ll stick out a youth team and have no depth whereas the likes of Leicester and Wolves will see it as a cup chance. City though…their reserves are top 4 quality I'll Take: Liverpool, United, Burnley, MK Dons, Charlton, Lincoln, Gillingham I'd Hate: Brighton Away, Leicester, Villa, Wolves, Southampton Away, Bournemouth Away Indifferent on the rest i.e. Newcastle away will be good trip and City will be fun regardless of the fact we'll get battered.

Not sure about the half and half scarf

19 consecutive successful penalties is about 1000/1 if we consider the standard of player diminishes as it progresses

Interesting that the next round is 20th/21st December so it’ll be first game back for Prem teams after the World Cup…..not sure if that means they rest players ahead of Boxing Day or would they play them as a warm up if they’ve not played for a while

Date is 20th/21st Dec I think for fixtures

Hirst up 9th. Confidence must be shot. Some team spirit though. Well done to all involved. Gillingham at home next round please or United away (if they win) for a Christmas piss up. Such bad FOMO missing out tonight - enjoy it all you lads in London Hope we’ve not used up all our luck ahead of Sunday

Which of Masterchef or I’m a Celeb is your poison?

Will the penalties be shown at all on the Sky Sports show do we think?

Hirst?

😄 maybe that’s what he was thinking!

Stick on Phillips or Batty instead of Hyam

Hyam now too - what is he thinking

Sounds like we got battered last 30 mins. No idea why he made those substitutes

Pears to become a hero 😂

You can all blame me anyway for looking up when the next round was played, about 30 seconds before their equaliser
