FA CUP 5TH ROUND DRAW

[Columbia6]

The last 16 (and probably last 8) looks good for us. Due to results over the last few years, I would be more confident playing City or United in the last 8 than playing Arsenal or Liverpool.

If we beat Oldham we'll be in the quarters without having faced a Premier League side, can't complain about that.

 

[Brennan]

Not unless you've invented a new line in maths. Our chances of getting a home quarter-final are exactly 50:50!

Please tell me you're joking.

50/50 actually.

Nope.

Exactly this. It's been a kind draw so far. I just want anyone at home next if we can get past Oldham. They won't be a pushover but hopefully Moyes will have a decent game plan.

Feel bad for Luton. I know a few guys there and Millwall at home for them must be like waking up in bed next to the anti-christ. No TV money, no golden bingo moment against a prem club away and they'll probably spend more in policing that they will get back. At least they might win it and land a big quarter final.

Please tell me you're taking the p*ss!

It's the quarters after this round mate, then the semi!

Yeah, as I said MK Dons/ Barnsley in quarters then Luton/Millwall/Leicester/Huddersfield/Wigan in semi.

Won't be though, get City away in quarters if we beat Oldham.

If you flip a coin three times and get heads each time, is the probability of getting heads a fourth time in succession 50/50 ?

ffs.. goes into law of averages story...

Wouldn't you have to take every draw we've ever had into account?

 

[Lien]

Good draw, but be under no illusions, if we're not game then we will go the same way as Liverpool. Not all counting chickens here, even though quite obviously I'd prefer to go to Oldham then any of the top PL clubs.

Please tell me you're joking.



Nope.

you could not be more wrong.

The chance of a home or away draw in the next round is in NO WAY WHATSOEVER influenced by the outcomes in previous rounds.

Before all four flips, the chances of getting 4 heads in a row was 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 = 1 in 16

After 3 flips have come up heads already, the chance of the FOURTH ONE coming up heads is 50/50

Yes, of course it is.

Everytime you flip a coin, its a 50/50 chance.

Brennan you seem a bright lad most of the time but obviously must have slept through your maths lessons when the subject of probability was taught. Scan this link and we'll say no more about it xx

If united or arsenal are still in the champions league, come quarter finals then I would really fancy beating either of them at Goodson, especially with the teams they have picked for the fa cup so far. City is another kettle of fish, they have no euro football to go for and would play a full strength team against us.
