Charlton Athletic v Middlesbrough
Aston Villa or Manchester City v Bolton Wanderers or West Ham United
Chelsea v Newcastle United
Birmingham City v Liverpool Ties to be played on 20-23 March
 
Liverpool appear to be the big winners in the draw.

Newcastle should bring back bad memories from last year for the Blues.
 
could've been worse, obviously we have to beat Villa in 2 weeks, at least we are at home and we can beat anyone there.....anyone apart from Bolton :roll:
 
I initially thought it was a typo...but after further research It seems that all 4 ties will be played on mon-thurs 20-23 march?? wtf?? Fa cup ties are on Saturday (unless switched to Sunday to placate TV companies), replays are midweek.....It's the law!!!! :evil:
 
They moved the ties in order to speed things up and make sure there's a pre-World Cup break at the end of the season.

The worst part is that if either Chelsea or Liverpool make it to the FA Cup final and the Champions League final they will have to play two huge games in the span of a week (May 13 & 17).

Also - this just in. Wembley won't be ready until the Community Shield, so it's back to Cardiff for the cup final.
