    Some good fixtures tonight and tomorrow but not great for travelling fans.
    Unless they don't matter of course.

    Too much choice. I can't make my mind up which one to watch. Probably Fulham v Leeds.

    Is it because the break in the season for the world cup congested the fixture list and there's not enough Saturdays left for these games? Just guessing like

    West Ham's tie with Man Utd the other year ( last game at Upton Park) was midweek too.

    Could do with Portsmouth doing us a favour tonight and Cheltenham pulling off a miracle, unlikely I know.

    The 5th round ties when we played Chelski, in the Val season, were also midweek.
