    I can't wait to watch Totsfan rush the away end live on BBC.

    We can't do much worse against Fulham than our last cup game at Craven Cottage. I deserved a medal for staying until the end, my mates didn't come back for the second half :D

    I left at half time and went to the pub to drown my sorrows although once Daws was sent off and we were 2-0 it was over.

    We need to take this one seriously and put out a far stronger side.
    We also need to buy Sessegnon tomorrow and loan him back... <whistle>

    Good to be going back to the Cottage, possibly my favourite away ground. Lovely people at Fulham, a civilised football club.

    For years I've claimed the draws are fixed..

    The odds of this happening were so high.....

    Someone did the maths, and someone checked their maths...

    1.99% chance. Or 1 in 50.

    It happens.

    Only been Craven Cottage once, was the 3-3 about seven or eight years back, good game but we messed up royally to let them back in it.

    Will be interesting to see how we approach it, I still think the back five will be rotated but I reckon we'll see the likes of Alli/ Eriksen/ Kane all feature from the off.

    Add that 1 in 50 to previous years odds of particular draws happening and you are in much higher numbers.
    It might happen (once in 50-pretty high) , but it '' happens'' consistently year after year.

    It's a huge exaggeration to say "no premiership teams face each other" consistently happens year after year

    If someone wants to come up with a explanation, other than heated balls and numpty footballers being able to follow a script, I'm willing to listen to it

    And this round it would mean trusting Robbie Savage not to blab about the fix. Only a fool would trust him to be discrete.

    Our game against Fulham's been selected for TV.
    It will be on Sunday 19th February at 2pm and it's on BBC1.
    Hope we pick a strong side.

    Arsenal going for a draw to get Sutton back home to win by an own goal.......

    I had a bad visit one year to watch Spurs at Fulham.I faced the sun all day,getting in very early.On the way home a got to Liverpool Street,then got on the train with no one in the carriage and began to lose my sight due to a migraine brought on by the sun.I rode all the way to Lower Edmonton almost blind.Got off,went,somehow to the Hospital in Edmonton and,wouldn't you believe it(?),me sight returned leaving me with one hell of a headache! A day to remember.
    p.s. We Drew!

    No and I'm all for that. I live in the Borough and go to the comedy nights at GGL. It's an excellently managed club and set up but half of the gate from The Emirates could go a long way. I'm not even sure if it's possible to do any more.

    The gate receipts will come from the replay. Being live on TV must bring some big bucks? Any Prem team playing non league should forego their TV fee and let the non league have it all.
