How many ties get televised? There's 3 all prem ties (Spurs / Villa, Newcastle / Muff and Everton / Sunderland).
I'd expect Palace as holders to be on plus Arse, Poo and Man Ure simply because they're Arse, Poo and Man Ure.

Yeah but Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney.

Was it 81 or 82 we got beaten 3-1 at Wrexham? (When they were much worse than now.)
-
We lost at home. I was there. Someone like Mark Proctor scored after 5 minutes and all looked well.
It all went to shit. I can't remember why - apart from the whole conceding 3 without reply thing. -
Brilliant. Pinstripes again.
Feels like a transitional team with the last of the European players on their way out (Bowyer presumably injured) and before the emergence of Davenport, Fairclough and Hodge (and return of Birtles) that caused the slight mid 80s revival (before the proper late 80s one).
-
I was there too.
Wallace, Ward and Proctor. Blimey.

Think we played them in the League Cup, too, early Frank Clark era. Collymore got a hat-trick in the first game at their place but it ended 3-3.
Their striker won a bizarre penalty when he dribbled into the area being jockeyed by Scot Gemmill - he then leapt forward and wrapped his legs around Gemmill's, bringing them both down. Ref fell for it. We beat them comfortably in the replay at the City Ground
I know this because I had the promotion video on VHS and watched it that many times I must have nearly worn it out.
-
I think most us wore out that promotion video…
-
Oooh, have we got a video?
-
I think it's a nice thing that the club have taken Stephen Crean out with them to Utrecht and, obviously, he'd take a mate. But their repeated use of the phrase "Stephen Crean and his friend Philip" makes them sound like they are a couple from the days when that was more taboo. Which maybe they are but I'm guessing not.

Ola in the B Team tonight
-
Shhh! He’s far too injured to go to AFCON.
-
He's not in their squad seemingly so no need to be quiet..
-
Yep just clocked that myself. Was named this morning.
