Shearer Gives Us Horror Cup Draw!

Last updated : 09 December 2014 By Footy Mad - Editor

Former Newcastle captain Alan Shearer and local grassroots volunteer Paul Adamson pulled the 64 balls out for a draw which featured a number of intriguing ties ... but not the one Magpies fans had hoped for.

Yes it's the same old comment from every manager "we would like a home draw", but in Alan Pardew's situation, that is not the case.

We travel to Leicester City, a team we have never played in the FA Cup before in the history of both clubs.

Blyth Spartans claim they did not get the glamour tie they were hoping for, but a home tie with Birmingham City will have the ground full ... just as it would have been against the Premier League giants.

Blyth manager Stephen Turnbull said: "(It is) a bit of an anti-climax. We wanted Manchester United. We'll give it our best shot."

Our other non-league club DO get a crack at a Premier League side ... West Brom host Gateshead.

Sunderland host Leeds in a re-run of the 1973 FA Cup final.

League Two AFC Wimbledon - in the third round for the first time in their 12-year history - will host Liverpool in a match which will have many reminiscing about the 1988 final, won by the original Wimbledon.

There will be four all-Premier League ties: Burnley v Tottenham, Leicester v Newcastle and Everton v West Ham, plus Arsenal v Hull.

Manchester City are 5/1 favourites for the FA Cup after being drawn at home against Sheffield Wednesday.

The Citizens are closely matched at the top of the betting by Chelsea who are half a point longer at 11/2.

Manchester United 7/1 third-favourites.
