I would hope that this draw should be just as attractive as Norwich was for a couple of reasons: 2 seasons’ ago, THIS would have been the match against a Premier League side and Norwich would’ve geenthe Championship opponents - has much really changed in that time?? Are Norwich that much more of a pull than Stoke?
Secondly, this is only the second time we’ve ever reached this stage of the competition!!!! Just because we haven’t drawn Manchester City at home, I don’t get the underwhelming reaction to the draw from some quarters. Just get down there!!!
Agreed it will be another great night out - will be interesting to see if Nathan Jones will be their boss by then. We don’t want the new manager bounce!
Stoke have requested their full allocation, any chance of a new record attendance?
I think I spot a problem, how could Norwich bring 1000 more supporters than last night when Stoke supposedly requested a full allocation? It wouldn't and doesn't matter to the big sides as they often play their 2nd XI in a half empty stadium, it does matter to the smaller clubs as much needed income and support is swapped for empty spaces on the terraces

A very good point. It would have been great if we had filled another 500 in the south terrace.
