The more I think about it the more I can't be arsed to go.
Here's to hoping we get a draw and a replay at the CG.

I think it's a great draw, just the right distance for a piss-up on the train  |

Was a bit disappointed with the draw when we first came out the hat..
But on reflection I think it could've been so much worse..
We've been starved of any decent away games in recent years, even Palace away seems quite attractive these days, I think we'll take 2,500 down there.
Plus it's 20 minutes from my front door..

Think I'll drive to Reading and get the train from there. Cheap day return is £13.30.
Anyone know what the parking's like at Reading?

I'm pleased with the draw. I've done my positive twisting of reality and it now seems good. My reasoning is this.
Any teams below us will play out of their skins and we will be complacent. No proof required. Glad we didn't get one of them.
Weak Prem teams, whether they are complacent or play reserves, still would be a significant hurdle for us. This would neither inspire us as fans, nor inspire the players.
Teams in the same league and league 1 will just be cunt.
Championship teams are good because they will be complacent yet, hopefully, not have the skills to kill us or out play us at every turn. The players within our team would be up for it and coupled with a loud away following and a quiet home following, victory is a definate posibility.
I feel we have one of the more playable teams in the Championship and i think we can beat them and get ourselves into the forth round.

I agree with Barry Scott to some extent.
On a good day, we could go there, outsing them, they could have a bad game and we could nick a win or get a replay at least. They are 16th which shows they are nothing special in the Championship, and having watched Clinton Morrison's lame excuse for a performance in the pre-season game there is definitely some hope!
If I can get the day off work I might well go. Driving to Reading sounds like a good plan!
