[Football] FA Cup 5th Round Draw
Preston/Crystal Palace v Coventry/Middlesbrough
Newcastle v Southampton
Aston Villa v Manchester City
Everton/Chelsea v Colchester
Charlton v Brentford
Liverpool v Manchester United
Bolton v West Ham
Stoke v Reading/Birmingham
A few interesting ones there, Liverpool v Man Utd, Charlton v Brentford (place a bet on Brentford anyone?) and Stoke v Reading/Birmingham (hopefully blues then they will lose)

Re: [Football] FA Cup 5th Round Draw
Colchester and Brentford have done well - away ties against premiership opponents (in the Bee's case, beatable ones) represent some good cash in the bank.

That could be a lot worse. Benfica are one of the easiest draws in the competition, and it's "we", not "us".

"heard us draw" makes perfect sense. I can't remember the name of the tense but it meant he was listening at the time when the draw took place.
"heard we draw" makes no sense.
"heard we drew" is if he heard it after the event happened. But you didn't say that.
Are you wrong Mr Jakiri? :eek:

It should be "we drew", sorry. "Heard us draw" makes sense if he was listening to the draw at the time, whereas "heard we drew" makes sense no matter what.
This is a victory for "posting while playing deus ex and getting things wrong".

Are we talking about you claiming that it was a "****ed up" fixture list or the "we/us" aside?
