FACup third round draw

[danumdon]

So, Harrogate go to Leeds, Salford go to Man City, Accrington go to Liverpool, Bromley go to Newcastle, Morecambe go to Chelsea, Tamworth host Spurs and Doncaster go to..................... Hull FFS

Yes and if we beat Hull the odds on getting a big club in the 4th round double.

Thats if there's any left!

So Liverpool, Man City, Spurs, Chelsea, Villa, Leeds are all going to lose to Accrington, Salford, Tamworth Harrogate etc etc & Arsenal and Man U can’t both lose as playing each other.

CR, we know that none of them should be loosing! should of put a smiley in there for you.

Remember McIndoe and the plane and the vikettes   and the trophy.

Was it the League Cup that we won in there early on last season?

[andysly]

I went last time we played them in the cup in 1981. Chance for revenge??

Yeah me too, crammed in worse than sardines. Pre-Hillsborough obviously.
Rubble, darts, something set on fire all coming over the segregation fence towards us.
Good old days eh

I seem to have in mind I was on the pitch at full time

I remember that season vividly. Hull City had drawn their second round fixture at home to Blyth Spartans and so Rovers were awaiting the outcome of the replay. Many were expecting a trip to Blyth, they had reached the fifth round in 1978 and had a good cup pedigree. The replay also ended in a draw and the second replay just a couple of days before Christmas saw Hull edge through to the third round.

I still don’t know how Rovers lost that day at Boothferry Park. Chance after chance went begging and Hull managed one opportunity which fell to the Welsh International Nick Deacy and he stuck it away.

In the next round Hull lost to Spurs at White Hart Lane, Spurs went on to lift the trophy that season.

[Usher wide.]

Superb draw; already checked and train costs a small fortune.

It feels like im driving to the Eco-Power and on a coach with Paul M.

Surely 3k in the away end.

That’s the way philsky! Positivity.

This is a fixture that for so many reasons (but not as many as us supporters!) Grant will want to win AND, it’s a very winnable game for us.

Hull have drawn one & lost five of their last six games. They’ve only won three league games this season & see themselves in the bottom three.

Their fans are on the backs of the players, management & board. They’ll be dreading us (with McCann as OUR manager) going there & winning this game & win it we most certainly can.

This time next year I would imagine this fixture being played out on at least two occasions in League 1.

Bring it on!

Millwall v Dagenham is basically Millwall v West Ham, ouch

I think return train is £25-£30, was last time I went to Hull on a Saturday (admittedly not for footy)

But probably not from where Philsky is travelling from. London ish as I recall.

[moses]

For anyone looking at trains but live east of Donny, it is currently cheaper to get a ticket from Donny to Hull than from Kirk Sandall or Thorne North on the 11.05 train that stops at both Kirk Sandall and Thorne North.

im sure the odds would half of getting a big club in rd4 if we progress, rather than drawing a big club in Rd3

[adamtherover]

Reading the hull fans on Insta, 99% predict an away win, with a sub 10k crowd..  and hull fringe players starting..  to say they are not up for it is an understatement..

[Goole Rover]

Was that the game we battered them and ended up losing 1-0

I never seen a more one sided game and lost my life.

[Butchers Red]

I think its a decent draw, so much history and connections between the clubs

Our record 37,000 odd attendance was v Hull

That famous headline "Anderson's men thrill 20,000 fans " when we beat them 2-1 in league cup in 70's as a Div 4 side versus top Div 2 Hull

Battling them for the Div 4 title in 04-05 -  full away end at their place saw great free kick equalizer from Mulligan into top bins but later Doolan slipped a horror cross field ball for the god botherer to latch on to for their winner

And very nicely they nicked Grant and then binned him off - plus we have Nixon and Fleming who will be fired up to prove a point alongside Grant.

Really looking forward to it, very winnable and should be a great atmosphere

[Donnywolf]

Believe it or not , I was wondering like everyone else who we would draw

I thought , can't say a premonition , I wonder who Ball 16 is as 16 v 61 would have a certain symmetry to it

I looked and it was Hull so I thought no no ffs no

Fast forward Number 16 , and Mrs Dw was impressed as I said Hull City before it was announced  and moreso when I said go on go on 61 ... Sixty (expletive deleted) one

[Padge_DRFC]

£13 specific times there and back on the train

Ball 51 (Accrington) were pulled away at Liverpool. With the light shining on the ball it looked like 61.

[BobG]

I'm almost tempted to say I'm glad it wasn't ball 61. Despite the money I wouldn't have enjoyed losing 18-0 to Liverpool reserves.

Remember it well Butchers, was speaking to Ray Ternent not too long ago about his goal in that game, it was a low header inside the box, from which he lost a few teeth!. We made the back page of the Mirror the following morning with the headline 'KITCHEN SINKER!' great night.

[Herman Hessian]

now listed on the HCFC website as a 3:00pm kick off on the Saturday, but no such confirmation on our site - has this been firmed up anywhere - train tickets to book !!!

[Lincoln Rover]

No the TV companies have to take their pick of the games, then it’s agreed. REALISTICALLY I don’t expect us to be chosen for telly.
