You prodicted it.

[Tiddysdad]

Everton at home.
Wow

[Pancho Regan]

Yes we preducted it!

Yay!

[Monkcaster_Rover]

Great tie. 12/13k there with a bit of luck.

[donnievic]

Chance of being on tv aswell along with Salford v Leeds

[RoversInSpain]

Could be televised. Nice bit of income for TB’s investment

[Tiddysdad]

I was reading all the hopes of people on here and a lot were saying Everton. So when they came out all i could think was wow.
Great to be at home but would you have preferred it away?

[Donnywolf]

Probably Home better for Fans

Away better for Club ?

[Thorney]

Not sure it will be televised.
Think it may more likely be Chelsea v Wimbledon and Fulham v spurs,
Both London derbies with 2 teams who were expected to be in European competition this year

[afro goal machine]

Tbf every year someone romances an everton draw

[richtherover]

Brilliant draw. I was half expecting Lincoln or Crewe. Hope it's on the telly for us exiles!

  After being so poor for a long time in cup football at last we have gone out and created interest in the club, enthused the fans with an unexpected win against higher placed opposition, and can generate some much needed extra income from a game against an attractive Premiership  side.
   Just looking at this and other threads shows what interest can be generated by being interested in cup games, if we can combine it with a decent league season and be involved in a cup until after Christmas  we could create welcome income for the January transfer window apart from getting some respect and local support back  after a torrid few years.

guaranteed tv game is Wrexham v Bradford

We haven’t been poor for a long time in cup football. We’ve been poor the last couple of seasons but then we’ve been shite in the league so it just matches that form. In the 2020-21 season we got to the 4th round of the FA Cup, winning at Championship Blackburn along the way. We were out in the 1st round of the League Cup, but that was also at Blackburn so no shame in that. The season before that wasn’t great - out in the 2nd round of the FA cup at Gillingham (same level) and out in the 1st round of the League cup at Grimsby (league below so not a great result), but in the 2018-19 season (McCann’s only previous year in charge) we got to the 5th round of the FA Cup (a great run), again taking a Championship scalp along the way, and went out in the 2nd round of the League cup to League One Blackpool.

Even if you include the disasters of the last couple of seasons, I bet we still have a decent 5 year record against other League One/Two clubs in that time given we’ve got to the 4th & 5th rounds of the FA Cup.

  I know some people don't like the  other cup we enter especially put together for poorer clubs and u23s  add that and tell me we are ok and combine it with the others.
   Chesterfield, Lincoln, Rotherham and Barnsley have been to Wembley and built promotions on the money they have got from cup runs, we have been pathetic and were lucky at Chorley the season we got to the fifth round and we had a good side that season.
  It has cost the club a fortune compared with our local competitors. Even Rochdale earnt a million pounds to relay their pitch in a couple of seasons, one at out expense

Brian, you talk as though it's a conspiracy by Terry and co to deliberately avoid interest in the cups. There can't be any continuity in this, because we've had a different manager and practically a different team each season for the last few years.

I think it's no more than a coincidence. Our alarming slide down the leagues in recent years has been more of a concern to me.

[drfchound]

Well we beat Man City in the league cup after they put out a weakened team and we progressed in the competition so maybe Everton will underestimate us and do the same, giving us a better chance of beating them too.

[Sammy Chung was King]

It’s a winnable game, if we are set up properly, with a plan, as we were at Hull.
Have a go at them but also stay nice and solid. Have a feeling George Miller will get the winner in this.
