Title: FA Cup Ties on TV
Post by: The Red Baron on December 11, 2015, 11:32:32 am: Live games are:
Exeter v Liverpool
Wycombe v Aston Villa
Man United v Sheffield United
Spurs v Leicester

Can't see the point of the last two. I suppose there is still a chance that we will be on BBC' Sunday coverage again, though that will probably take a few off the gate.

Spurs vs Leicester I think will be a very good game to watch as a neutral but thought they may pick another lower league team.

Might get a chance to see Kitch's brilliant goal for Orient v Chelsea in FA Cup maybe Round 5 if they see off the Scunny Bunny mob

Still my favourite Rovers Player although Paul Green (though he was not to know - or possible care) was just a game from taking over ! Had he stayed with us in The Championship even for a while he would have succeeded Kitch as my favourite but he is still only a whisker behind even now !

Had Paul played only one game in the Championship he would have become the only player in Rovers history to play for Rovers at 4 different league levels
