Draw made on Friday. Home to winners of Newcastle v. Arsenal (playing tomorrow night). Hopefully this will played at VR, last Monday's game with Everton was very enjoyable No date confirmed yet, but this round to be completed by 11th February. (Info from F.A. website)
Don't know too much about the Cup but I am sure if they put as much effort and heart into this game than the Everton one, they have a real chance.
Won it 1982 & 1989, Finalists in 1985, it's the kids version of the F.A. Cup so always a significant feather in our caps if we can make further progress.
Watched them win it in 1982 vs MU. Something like 4-4 AET at home having won the first leg 3-2 at Utd..???? Whiteside & Hughes in the MU attack.
yes...video of the match here below the Gilligan interview... https://www.watfordfc.com/magazine/back-in-the-day/otd-gilligan-header-seals-fa-youth-cup-glory-1982
Me too...and Whiteside was in the NI squad for the '82 World Cup later that year. Mind you, we did decide to allow John Barnes to play in the final.
Quarter Finals have been drawn. SHOULD we beat Arsenal on Monday evening, we will have a home quarter-final v winners of Cambridge/Sheff Wed.
