After 4 years without any win in a cup, we went wild for 2 League Cup victories in 2013/2014 and then in 2014/2015 decided to up our game by winning some FA Cup games again. Three victories later and we got to the 4th round.
This year, we're back in the 4th round draw without even having to win (caveat; replay to get through first!) but it's still nice to be back in there instead of watching such illustrious victors such as 2012's two leagues lower Crawley Town venture onwards to more "greats".
Anyway. The Championship teams OUT number 11.
Cardiff, Birmingham, Brentford, Charlton, Brighton, Middlesbrough Rotherham, QPR, Preston, Fulham & Wolves.
With 5 possibly joining them with upcoming replays;
Bolton, Huddersfield/Reading, Ipswich, MK Dons, Bristol City
So who do you want? Big glamour tie or something you can gracefully accept defect in and focus on the league?
I imagine we'll get a "glamour" tie against a big team at home and then lose our replay. OR get drawn away to Shrewsbury.
