FA Cup Third Round Draw. 4th December, 2:40 PM. ITV1

[Rors]

I think ITV's consultation on what game to make their first choice ended about 10minutes ago...

I bet BBC/ITV will screen the Man Utd game. Again. Even though the result is a foregone conclusion.

Those bastards really have no shame.

Leeds again eh.

Lets not almost make a hash of it this time.

Good chance to be live on BBC, that's the only reason Viniger fixed this up.

Er, there is no chance of us being live on BBC I am afraid.

[Marc Overmars]

BBC have FA Cup games?

[Rors]

No chance of a live BBC FA Cup game until at least November 2014...

No. ITV and ESPN.

We were last drawn against Bristol Rovers in the Third Round, 1993. Drew the first game at Villa Park, and then "ran out comfortable winners" in the replay. Those games were most famous for Ron and Big Mal (RIP) tearing strips off each other in the build-ups.

No. ITV and ESPN.

Part of the reason it's lost some prestige is because the competition is being aired on pub team channels. imo.
