Bugger. Typical that Man City were still in there. Hillsborough used to be used for Cup semi finals back in the day. Do Coventry even play in Coventry these days?

But so were Luton, which would have been about the worst tie possible, along with Bournemouth. Premier League side, with a ground capacity of less than 12,000.

Would rather we play at Sheff Weds or Coventry than Bournemouth and Luton.

Coventry have a 32609 capacity so another decent stadium to visit if they win their replay.

I'm really hoping Coventry win the replay, I got family who live up that way who support Coventry.

Whichever team it is, this is going to be another fabulous evening out for all us Maidstone United fans. And I suspect guaranteed to be a live game for ITV or BBC because of the possibility of an upset ( or as others will be hoping for, a drubbing) and they like nothing better than that. Looking forward to it already and we should have plenty of tickets based on their capacities. I think there were a lot of downhearted people immediately after the draw for the last round, but look how that turned out.

It would be a lot easier for Coventry to give us 15% of capacity (4800) due to their stadium design than Sheffield Wednesday where they have separate stands.

I would love Newcastle in R5 but I've a sneaky feeling we'll get the winner of the Coventry v Sheff Wed game but being on a midweek evening I'm unlikely to go to any if drawn away and if it's at home then,having not seen a home this season,i feel i would have no right to attend in front of those that went yesterday. Well I was right but it was so close to Wolverhampton or Man City. Of the 2 we have drawn I think I would like Coventry as I have a friend who lives in Barming who is Coventry mad and I know at least one Stones fan whose eecond team is Coventry.

I like the fact we are unhappy about the possibility of playing at Hillsborough Just as long as South Yorkshire police aren't overseeing the game.

To any Coventry or Sheffield Wednesday fans reading, we’re not ungrateful or disrespectful. Some had just set their hearts on a big Premier League side. I wanted to be at home for the publicity, and sh*ts and giggles of making someone play on the worn out astroturf.

I hope it is Coventry only 90 min drive. Sheffield would take 4 hours.
