    It's the 5th round of the Cup, a place not many of us thought we'd be a few short weeks ago. MK play some decent football; should be a good game, with a decent chance to progress to the quarters, a view no doubt rightly shared by the MK fans.

    Agreed. Luton at home in the next round and we're a game away from the semi final ;-)

    I think it's the fact that it won't generate much money that makes it a poor draw. They may be a league below us, but anyone away from home is a difficult tie.

    We've got through two incredibly uninspiring and arguably more difficult draws already. I reckon we'll make it a hattrick of 1-0 wins! :)

    Only 9 clubs between us in the league. Very likely to get knocked out and nominal gate receipts. The only saving grace is that we could have drawn luton away, which is the armpit of the known universe.

    You've obviously never been to Kilmarnock.
