I think more difficult than getting drawn against any in the lower half of the Premier League, as Burnley are flying. As I mentioned in the chatroom last night, they also have Scott Twine on free kicks.
I well remember the despair of being at Wrexham, losing to them when we were a lower Premier League team. I don't see the FA Cup as a free game, it still matters.
For it not to be televised is pretty poor decision making by TV, as it will probably be a better game than most of the TV games. Hopefully it suits us that it's at the proper time of 3pm on Saturday. |  | | |  |

I think a twine freekick goal is nailed on. We do give away quite a few freekicks in and around the area he loves.
Hopefully tho we've scored 2 before he does :) |  |

They are playing some great football from what I’ve seen, and supremely confident. Im curious as to what side KMc will name (ie will he risk injuries to key players. Be surprised if Hirst doesn’t get his first start, an appearance from Luongo or is he injured?
I’m looking forward to it been a while since I’ve been to an FA Cup game, it’s an exciting draw. |  | | |

Completely disagree. This is the very definition of a free hit game.
I'm expecting both sides to announce strong but rotated line ups and this to end about 4-2 to them. |  |

Yeah they're flying and will fancy a run as much as we do. It's a bit of a free hit though, as much as I want to win if offered 1 win from our next 2 I would take Cambridge. Burnley game is almost better to lose than draw, but of course hope we smash them and get a big 5th round tie. |  |

Burnley will win, but a good learning curve, |  | | |

At home to Everton would have been a good draw |  | | |

Shame last night couldn't be followed straight up with another league game. As it is, I'm just praying for no injuries, & the result not to be a draw. Wouldn't be at all surprised if we win by a Broadhead goal (or two) though! |  |

Agree. It’s totally a free hit game. A good marker against a Premier League in waiting team. But we should not play key players or any with a niggle/injury. If we get hammered because of it, who cares. |  | | |

We can all think of one poster who would make it into a massive event... | |

Ideal what ever happens happens type of game.
Lose and it doesn't matter at all. Win and its amazing
Only thing we don't want at all is a draw. I'd actually rather us score an own goal if it was 1 1 going into injury time. | |

Burnley all but promoted, would have to have a massive collapse to not get automatic now, so they will give this game their full attention, they could realistically get at least to the Semis, no reason why they can beat half the Premier league now the way they are playing.
I can't remember the last time we caused a real shock in the cup, we always seem to be on the receiving end of them, and I don't see a shock here. Will be a good test but ultimately need everyone fighting fit for the league games ahead.
Going 1-2 Burnley here. |  |

Down vote was a slip-up. Sorry.
Good points made. [Post edited 25 Jan 2023 19:00]

I'll be very surprised indeed if Hirst gets his first start, seeing as he's already had it.
Suspect he will start though. |  |
