The fact that we are drawn against them this early seems to be the definitive sign of it not being fixed- as the FA and BBC would love a showpiece final between us and Arsenal I think Tom’s right.

No suprise, no excitement, I don't know if they are meant to remain neutral but it is a bit odd. I also think everyone dreads a one sided cup final, but saying that us against Arsenal a few years back was very one-sided but we lost on pens!! It is better to play Arsenal in this round rather than in the Final, either round it's in, it's a great game. It will be a great next couple of weeks starting with Portsmouth last night.
