Anyway, I really would prefer a good chance of getting through to the last 16 rather than drawing a big club but either way I will be delighted. Probably means I concur with whoever said any draw is a good un at this point.

Not as a minimum price in the FA Cup it isn't, especially as most fans will be behind the goals and the facilities are not great. West Ham v Manchester City was £10/£15 behind the goals. Sunderland v Burnley was £10 a ticket.
Norwich fans protested at the £25 they were charged v Soton and lost half of their gate.
Stanley's cup pricing is economically myopic, as it won't attract new fans to grow the fan base. They should have learnt from the Burnley farce.
