Hopefully scum fans buy all unused tickets in home ends and it kicks off big time in the stands resulting in a points deduction for both clubs.

Looking at this draw I doubt ours will be a tv pick 

I think that has to be the understatement of all time 😀

At least anyone that's going to Carlisle on 4th round day make plans with confidence its going ahead.

Luton are shit and going down; we could well be playing them next season; if they put a weakened team out we can beat them (could even beat their best team with a good performance)

There's people on twitter who were suggesting we could beat United by 2 or 3 clear goals, therefore we'll turn these over easily by 4 or 5

Great draw

get more tickets in cup Dave

Its still not going to be more than about 1.5k, its a tiny stand behind the goal.  Good acoustics to create an atmosphere in the away end but other than that, a terrible draw.

Now, that's the spirit.

Trevor Steven has basically just given Wigan about £300k plus to spend in the January window (gate receipts/live TV revenue).

He's given us about £25k.

Not played them since they played in white! 😃

I went to this, from memory the corner for their goal came from a Willy Morgan mis hit back pass from near half way line.  It also might have been end of season as think it was FA cup semi final day, both semis played at same time- 3o clock Saturday !

Be interesting if they give United half the ground.

Was this the game we had to take our boots and shoes off when entering the game?

Fair enough, I thought it was a very tough draw even if they rest a few but I've just remembered they lost in the league cup at Exeter a couple of months ago so I've revised my opinion to 8-0 to us 😀.

They will make up half the crowd regardless of whatever allocation they get.

It won't be hard for fans of the rags to get tickets

I went with my mum and dad so we kept ours on in seats, stayed in a hotel and players were staying there too.

I'm genuinely glad its their problem not ours.

The Mrs birthday is at 3rd round time.  Since we'd avoided going to Wigan away, decided to make a weekend of this game.  Seconds before the draw I said "the only bigger shithole than Wigan would be Luton away".  Think we'll be doing a there and back on the day if we get tickets.

This.

Not an attractive draw, but with a reasonable upset chance which would gain plaudits.

If we lose, then it's simply a learning exercise and we move on.

Exactly. United away, yes please, United at home with them having more fans than us, fuck that!

I beg to differ this could be on tele
