I’m back, and ready to disappoint a lot of people again. If you dislike Tottenham and Portsmouth, you can selectively scroll around for the non-Tottenham and Portsmouth bits, because I may as well warn you – there are quite a few today. I will be starting with something related to neither, but, as I said…
FA Cup 4th Round Draw: Arsenal, Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool expect easy passage
While there aren’t any jaw-dropping ties in the fourth round of the FA Cup, there are definitely a few ties worth watching. However, we don’t know who we’ll be watching in many of the ties, as there are still 12 places yet to be decided by replays that will take place over the next two…
