Sheffield United or Middlesboro vs Cardiff City Bristol Rovers vs West Bromwich Albion Manchester United vs Portsmouth  Barnsley vs Chelsea  That's the quarter finals, as a United fan, i am sick of the sight of Premier League clubs - were at home so i think were sure for the win but god damn why do we always end up with Prem clubs  . Chelsea get another non-Prem team, even tho they are away i think they are going to beat Barnsley easily, they arn't Liverpool. The other games could be worse than watching paint dry but there you go, so thoughts, predictions again the lot, welcome here.  |

Was hoping for United at home, would have gone to that.
If I can get hold of a ticket, I'll definately do Barnsley. Got a bad feeling about this game though, I'd rather have Pompey at Home than Barnsley Away.

God damn, no wonder Chelsea have come so far in this tournament getting teams like this. Not really. I mean look at the sides United have got in the last few years of the Carling Cup, Coventry, Southend, and they went out to them both. |

You cant compare the FA Cup and the Carling cup mate, I know its all Chelsea are gonna get this season but hey  I knew we'd get either Pompey or Chelsea, but itll prove we deserve to win it this season as we've faced a lot of difficult teams. Id hope we get Chelsea in the semis instead of the final. |

We don't take the C Cup seriously one little bit but fro the last few years in the FA cup weve had nothing but Prem teams whilst Chelsea have had a huge majority of lower league sides, it almost seems fixed  . Jks, i wouldn't go that far but it is year in year out, Villa, Pompey, Boro, Liverpool, Arsenal, Spurs - it's not good for a fans morale, i wanna see us facing different teams than what we face in the league, i thought that was the point of the FA cup. |

my predictions Man United 2 - 0 Portsmouth Barnsley 0 - 4 Chelsea Bristol Rovers 2 - 0 West Brom Middlesborough 2 - 1 Cardiff City Pretty safe guesses IMO... not tempted to go for a Barnsley win as I really cant see it happening. They shouldnt get lucky again over Chelsea Lol at the Mancs getting another prem side and althought I went for a 2 - 0 win I'm not writign Pompey off yet :/ Bristol can beat WBA, IMO they will. Middlesborough will find it tricky against Cardiff but will probably come out on top in then end =S |

Man United 3 - 2 Portsmouth
Barnsley 2 - 4 Chelsea
Bristol Rovers 1 - 3 West Brom
Middlesborough 1 - 1 Cardiff City
Thats my predictions. I think Chelsea might struggle a little bit at Barnsley they are doing well.

Joke how for the last eleven consecutive ties we've had Premiership Opposition, dating back to the 5th round in 05/06 when we played Liverpool away,
1) Liverpool 5th Round 05/06
2) Aston Villa 3rd Round 06/07
3) Portsmouth 4th Round 06/07
4) Reading 5th Round 06/07
5) Middlesbrough Quarter Final 06/07
6) Watford Semi Final 06/07
7) Chelsea Final 06/07
8) Aston Villa 3rd Round 07/08
9) Spurs 4th Round 07/08
10) Arsenal 5th Round 07/08
11) Portsmouth Quarter Final 07/08
Blatantly going to be United vs Boro in the Semi's and Chelsea vs WBA/Bristol and then Chelsea and United final. The Treble is on

Last years FA Cup final was a  ing awful game of football. I'd rather we got premiership sides. I'm not paying £30 to watch us field the reserves against the likes of Bristol Rovers. If I was a ST holder with this shambolic ACS scheme I'd be well pissed if we got drawn at home against a League 1 side or whatever. |
