Liverpool away at a non league side im sure will get the ITV game. I imagine either West Ham vs Man United or Southampton vs Chelsea will be the other game.

We got Newcastle home, beat then in the 4th round last season 1-0. Hopefully same result this time

Crawley with another chance to keep on wining, Reading at home. Hastings United face another long trip up to Middlesbrough.

Some interesting ties there. Potential banana skin for Liverpool but we should have enough to get past that one though the home side will be well up for it.

West Ham - Man Utd will be decent as will Brighton - Newcastle. Obviously helps when the "smaller" side has home advantage.

Spurs - Coventry is a repeat of one of the last great FA Cup finals - when the cup really meant something - just a shame it's at the Lane.

Be interesting to see how Palace fare against a PL team in Stoke. We'll see how good this Palace team is against a well oiled top flight team.

will be gutted if we lose the replay after conceding in the last moments on saturday! but you can be assured we will sell out our allocation at mansfield next week and try and get the team through to face liverpool. i went kind of crazy when 59 drew 23

were coming for you wigan

And we won't be happy if we lose to a side containing Gary Mills and Adam Smith and managed by Holdsworth. Sounded like the draw was a fair result on saturday anyway. I see the replay is on ESPN so one of us should be on telly twice in a matter of weeks. What a treat for the nation that will be, especially if it's us and our hoofball.

but also containing inform players power and taylor, or, power taylor its a great financial reward, a huge one infact, as gone are the days where we were both doing well in higher divisions, with crowds for derbies of 5/6,000+. it will be my first visit to mansfield strangely, as ive visited most of the other local sides (scunthorpe, hull, boston, notts county) hopefully will be picking my tickets up this lunchtime, or tonight at our game against woking. im hoping the facts that were in good form, have one of the top scorers, a loud away backing and the pressure of you playing at home will be enough to see us through. will be a great night. tbh im more excited about this game than the prospect of facing liverpool, nothing beats an away, local game

Plus the fact that we are always rubbish on TV. We do have the best home record in the division this season though, rather oddly given how disappointing we've been. Cliche lovers would say it all counts for nothing in the cup anyway.

It certainly is good money for clubs like ours though pal. I've read elsewhere that we'll both get £34,000 for the replay being on telly. The winners will get £27,000 prize money and then a further £135,000 for being on telly in the third round. That's huge.

Did you manage to get your tickets?

i went last night, and we were very very poor. pretty decent on the ball, but awful in the final third. ive also read we receive 34k for the replay. ive estimated itll be about 400k overall when taking everything into account, for the winners of the replay. tickets go on general sale on thursday morning. however im struggling to get people to come, and last night was quite frankly, awful! Mills missed a header from about 5 yards btw. he only needed it to brush him and it would of gone in, instead he thumped it over the bar

but anyway, as you say, its a huge financial reward for the winners next wednesday

Norwich have already sold out there 4,500 allocation for Peterborough!

Darragh MacAnthony ‏@DMAC102
Unreal that Norwich already sold nearly 4,500 tickets for Fa cup game against us. Amazing after few days on sale. Can't wait for this game

Darragh MacAnthony ‏@DMAC102
Sorry I stand corrected, those tickets been sold since 9am..Wow..Be amazing if a sellout, proper cup atmosphere...way it should be!

#yellowarmy

Are you one of the 4,500?

No I was at school so didn't get any lol

JamesLincs...

Big game tonight pal. Unfortunately the time difference is too much for me so I'll just be checking the result in the morning but I hope you enjoy the match, hope it's contested and decided fairly and may the best team win!

Good luck mate.

I wonder if the time difference will be too much if you're playing Liverpool

Marky wrote:I wonder if the time difference will be too much if you're playing Liverpool

Well that game would kick off almost four hours earlier than tonight's so I reckon I could push myself to stay up, aye.

Fair enough, for some reason I had it in my head Lincoln/Mansfield v Liverpool was the Monday night game, turns out the Cheltenham v Everton game is Monday night.

I'm actually happy Leyton Orient won their tie against Alfreton because although I love the non-league sides having a good run, I expect Hull, like most teams would, would take the match too lightly and an upset would very well be on the cards.

Can't moan about a home tie with Leyton.

Unlucky JamesLincs. Sounded like an even enough (and pretty poor quality) game from what I've read.

Bring on the scousers' reserves/youth team.

Good luck to all sides involved this weekend.

Hoping there will be a few upsets on the card!

Well the fa cup third round is just around the corner which games are we most looking forward to? Middlesbrough v Hastings for me. It's what the cup is all about and a big shame it's not televised. Had harrogate got through it would have been a derby mate near enough

Hastings will be carrying the Sussex flag with them with pride.

Funny enough, i actually saw them take on fellow sussex side Lewes on New Years Day. They looked very dodgy at the back but they do have a great winger in Bradley Goldburg so he could be a man to watch on the day.

Our manager doing his best to get his big face in the papers this weekend.

And succeeding obviously.

Mansfield Town manager Paul Cox will begin the biggest weekend of his life on Friday by marrying his girlfriend at the club’s training ground.

Cox’s team from the Blue Square Premier host giants Liverpool at the One Call Stadium on Sunday in one of the ties of the FA Cup third round.

But Cox will begin the weekend by marrying his girlfriend on the training ground next to the stadium after honouring a promise he made to her ahead of the club’s replay with Lincoln in the previous round.

Having drawn 3-3 at Sincil Bank in the first game, Cox told his partner he would marry her if Mansfield went through and, after a 2-1 win clinched a meeting with Brendan Rodgers’ team, he will keep his word tomorrow when the couple tie the knot in a specially erected marquee.

A Mansfield source said: 'It’s going to be a big three days for Paul.

'He gets married on Friday and then it’s Liverpool on the day of his 41st birthday on Sunday.'

Mansfield are currently ninth in the Blue Square after losing out in the promotion play-offs last season.

The club applied for permission to use their full capacity to 10,000 for Sunday’s game but their request was rejected on safety grounds. There will be only 7,500 fans in the stadium, meaning that club will lose in the region of £50,000 in possible takings.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2256467/Paul-Cox-hoping-FA-Cup-honeymoon-Liverpool-training-ground-wedding.html

Further to that, Blue Square have offered to pay for his honeymoon if we win.

Upsets.......................

at Palace, Southampton, Bolton,

West ham, Cheltenham and Swansea games to go to replays...............

Balotelli to score against Watford.................

Ill be there at the Boro v Hastings match, cant wait, Hastings seemingly bringing a fair few thousand so should be a cracking atmosphere.
Looking forward to seeing a few of our younger lads but Im a little nervous, remember Gareth Southgate bringing down a Postman last time we had a game like this to bring us back for a replay haha

Newcastle have been truly abysmal so far. Brighton should win this

now i play in goal, im not a pro, obviously. but i would of done a hell of alot more in attempt to keep that second brighton goal out

he committed, then stopped and just allowed the player to put it where he wanted.

I feel so so sorry for all those Newcastle fans who have got up in the middle of the night to do a 700 mile round trip to watch that quite frankly pathetic and abject display.

Just didn't look up for it or interested at all

I subjected myself to 20mins or so of football and I deduce that Newcastle have several young players who appear to earn or to have already earned enough money playing for the reserves to not give a rats behind about making a success of their football career. Not a criticism of them so much as the mug/mugs that were willing to pay them. Ergo the fans.

I also saw the Brighton player rolling over and over clutching his thigh having been tapped on the foot.

No doubt he'll trot out the trite line about "Never liking to see a fellow professional being sent off"

Football is w@nk.

1am the bus left Newcastle this morning to watch that. Truly shocking. Williamson is a disgrace, club is in serious situation and until Cabaye, Ben Arfa, Steven Taylor, Ryan Taylor, Coloccini, Debuchy, Tiote, Gutierrez (to an extent) & Cisse return to the line up altogther then there is no hope.

Bar Peterborough having a chance in the first 5 minutes they've hardly had the ball near our area.

They haven't really turned up and we're making it look easy. Only thing that's gonna stop us winning this is if we get complacent

At least Pardew has 8 years to sort it out!!!

Haha we usually travel in good numbers! This will be our closest game this season so people taken the opportunity to get down there

Silkmen Silkmen!!!!!!

Kagawa is pish, like having 10 men with him on the field.

At Dortmund he had a tackle rate of 1.5 tackles per game. He makes Nani looks competitive.

WUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA YES FINALLY I CAN SHOW MY FACE WITHOUT HAVING IT PAINTED ORANGE.

Tidy but uninvolved, very much like kleberson for me.

Crawley Town scored after 14 seconds against Reading but fair play to Reading, they got stuck in and deserved the win, even if their 3rd in the 3-1 win was from a penalty that was given despite the Crawley defender cleanly winning the ball!

Still, Crawley's last three seasons in the FA Cup: 5th round, 5th round, 3rd round. Considering the only other time we've ever made Round 3 was 1992, it shows how far we've come.

Really well played to Hastings today. Really refreshing to see a non league side come and play proper football, no long ball nonsense. We were comfortable throughout but a few of the fringe players really didnt make a case to start against Watford on Saturday, Miller was just hopeless

Never mind Marky, you can get your revenge in the Championship next season.

It's a myth that conference football is long ball football these days. I go and watch Wrexham a fair bit due to my dad being a season ticket holder and some of the teams get the ball down play some very good football.

I once did London-Newcastle, Albion played so badly I left at half time, then drove straight home. Worst day ever.

I don't think we'll go up, but they'll probably go down, Reading were better than us today, but they reminded me of a good Championship side rather than a side with Premier League class.

@LeeJermyn Snodgrass was shocking

If you ever need a tweet to some up this man (Adrian Durham) this is it. So bitter. Snodgrass was by far and away the best player on the park today.
