*Official* English Football Season 2014-15

Best possible result for the U's.

Practically guaranteed a televised replay, which is another £144k in the coffers.

The TV rights for the tie alone have brought in roughly 25% of their annual turnover.

Kinda thing that saves the little clubs. Without wishing to be too sanctimonious, that's the real magic of the cup.

First away game of the season for me today. Massive game for us but an even bigger one for Norwich.

It'll undoubtedly be on tv because it's Man United and they haven't had a non-televised FA Cup game in more than 10 years, but seeing as they get a share of the gate receipts that will far dwarf the tv monies and it'll likely be a walkover, couldn't they put someone else on tv?

Dunno. Think ManUre showed enough to think they might give us a game.
