I’m happy with that. Might be on TV and we’ve nothing to be scared of. If we are going to win the cup we’ve got to beat the best.
Remember Wolves and John Cockerill years back?

I actually think it’s a good draw . A chance to knock a good side out in front of a decent crowd hopefully. It’s what the cup is all about.

Why is everyone thinking it's an awful draw ? Do you really think they are over the moon about coming here ? A banana skin for them .Hurst will have them well up for it . Will they be ?  They may give some non regulars a start . A great chance to show what we are made of .

Not sure about all this " crap draw" malarkey. Home draw against a top team. Full strength team, decent crowd - certainly a test to see how far we've come. Looking forward to it!

Don't understand the negativity. A good side at home with a decent away support so should be a cracking atmosphere and a chance for the lads to show what they're made of. A win will give them a massive confidence boost but even a defeat gives them great experience playing against better players. What's not to like? 🤔

Please invite Ian Holloway back as a pundit. Might be an interesting experience for him.

I was just thinking the same thing .
Wolves was top of the old 3rd division and Steve Bull was knocking goals in for fun .
We beat them then beat Rotherham in the next round who was top of division 4 .
We went on to have one of our most famous cup runs.

Its funny that people see Plymouth who are top as a crap draw yet I guess most fans would have seen Sheff Wed at home as a great draw and their third!
