Sheffield United or Middlesbrough v Cardiff City

Manchester United v Portsmouth

Bristol Rovers v West Brom

Barnsley v Chelsea


Good reward for Barnsley, and as a Baggies fan, I reckon a good chance to get to Wembley (again!). smile

Shame it wasn't Rovers at home - their pitch looks impossible to play football on.

Man Utd have actually been pretty unlucky recently with the draw. If i remember correctly, this is the 12th time in a row they have drawn a premiership side in the FA Cup.......

Yeah, but a home tie for them again? Only thing I can hope for is they have a big(ger) game shortly afterwards so field the reserve team instead wink

They haven't actually played a non-premiership club in the FA Cup since Millwall in the final 4 years ago.

Can anybody tell me the last time there was an FA Cup semi-final WITHOUT Man U, Chelsea, Liverpool or Arsenal?

1987!!

Coventry beat Leeds 3-2 at Hillsborough and Spurs beat Watford 4-1 at Villa Park. Christ.

A very refreshing change at last!

I think this is great for the FA Cup. I would like to see West Brom or Portsmouth win it.

I hope Portsmouth play WBA - cos they're the best two teams I think. Let Barnsley play Cardiff for the honour of playing at Wembley.

Oh, they already are - which is wrong. ste atmosphere, a long way, and a crap pitch - let 'em play at Old Trafford or Villa Park.

Agreed!

I think the other 3 teams all want Barnsley IMO. As a Cardiff lad, i'd rather play Pompey than WBA.
