Fourth Round Draw on 13:38 - Jan 11 with 1823 views | durham_exile | Daniel - 4th round proper - first time since Parky's time, don't you think KK looks a little bit like PP!! Man U, Man City, Liverpool or Arsenal Away preferred. Obviously no-one knows the draw yet but I have a sneak feeling we won't be too disappointed. 5th Round here we come! Up the U's | |

Fourth Round Draw on 14:06 - Jan 11 with 1815 views | Leadbelly | As long as it's not Leeds I don't really mind although a cash generating trip to Arsenal or ManUre would be good. Probably away to the winner of Carlisle v Yeovil though. | |

.....or Bury/Bradford City for us northern exiles. However we are sure due a decent draw and let us hope it is a big 'un. Could we give Chelsea a scare? | | | |

Definitely - the big U'sual question now is where webmeister Daniel will be sitting ;-) | |

Not the first time I've been asked this I'll be 100% behind ColU whichever team we play, but would love it to Spurs. | | | |

Likewise. Can you imagine, U's v Spurs (no offense to Leicester, that wouldn't suck either) ... It will be painful rooting against Spurs if it comes to that. This is great! Derby got ManU at home, not bad. Arsenal hosts Burnley, nice day out for them in London. Looks like the U's v Spurs or Foxes is one of the most interesting ties of the day ... Sha-boom! | |

Fourth Round Draw on 10:57 - Jan 12 with 1437 views | gerry_us | Great draw for us. Would prefer Spurs to make it a "localish" derby but Leicester would be more beatable I fancy. With Spurs strength in depth even at half strength may give us a bit of a struggle. However we have more important matches coming up as we are getting a bit isolated down t'bottom. Will be good to see WHCS absolutely full even if there is no likelihood of my getting a ticket. Hopefully there will be no gaps as could be seen on Boxing Day. Does anybody know what is the definitve capacity of the ground and will we be able to get to that capacity with all the ground regulations on segregation, safety etc? | | | |
Fourth Round Draw on 11:46 - Jan 12 with 1426 views | Moor_Pinot | A king draw at last! Bravo. Result not that important - performance is and that continues this Saturday when the result is far more crucial. We must not lose to the Blades. Up the U's | |

Fourth Round Draw on 14:28 - Jan 12 by Barsidepete | In theory, 10,105, Gerry... But I have a funny feeling it will be 11-12,000. Spurs or Leicester fans will find a way in. And when we see em at the Victoria or Brickies, treat em well, buy em a pint or two. Totts or Foxers don't hate on the U's. Will be more than happy to support wha'ever winner the next round Seriously. How can you root against Spurs or Foxex? Tis is pretty much the only reason I watch the BPL. *edit: This is one of the greatest FA Cup ties in Colchester ever! oly sh&t! [Post edited 12 Jan 2016 14:35]

In the unlikely event there are 11,000 or 12,000 fans allowed through the turnstiles where will they sit in an all seater stadium with a maximum capacity of, as you state, 10,105? | |

The U's played Spurs in a pre season friendly on 20 July 2013 in front of almost 10,000 at the WHCS. Score was 0-0 There is no reason why we couldn't match that for this cup tie, both attendance and result!!!! Up the KK inspired super U's. | |
