Not meaning to get ahead of myself here but I'm in Mexico for the 5th round.
Still hope we get there and draw a cracker though!! obvious but here you go....... oooh matron. You know what Mex I didn't even think of that as I typed it. It conjures up an awful mental image though. he clearly has a very deranged mind

If you're not satisfied with a premiership side at home then there's something wrong. Even the prospect of a local derby at home is a good draw imo.

As regards TV, theres a lot to be decided by the replays, but NO WAY would I I have Wigan v Chelsea.
Us V Rovers on TV would be immense. Not many local derbies in there. Although to be fair, I think one of the ties of the round is Hereford v Cardiff (provided Hereford get through thats a cracker).
To much to be decided by replays before you can tell if its a good draw or not.
Town V Rovers 4th round would be mental.

I'm pretty sure we'll lose to Barnet, but if we DO go through...
Fulham is a good draw as I have a friend who supports them Rovers us a good draw as it is winnable and obviously the whole derby match thing is a bonus!

I think we'd be better off with Rovers...
I cant think why Sky or BBC would be queing up to get the rights to Swindon Vs Fulham. I mean Fulham are one of those very much nothingness Premiership Clubs no one cares about.
More chance of Sky or BBC wanting to show a local derby which had a penalty and 4 red cards last time.
Plus Rovers would sell more tickets than Fulham and we'd probably get a bigger crowd!
We'd have to pay shit loads more for policing...but meh. I dunno.

even if we win the replay I think we can rest assured there is NO CHANCE of us being selected as a live game

Bouazza could be back!
I'd prefer Fulham as Rovers are violent thugs and I don't want them back here after last time. You thought the game in November was bad? Your probably glad you missed the 06/07 games then....
