At home to Plymouth Argyle. Another good draw for us.

Kidderminster at home v West Ham, great draw for the non league side.

As it happens I've watched Plymouth a few times a season and they are a very good team at League One level, they also play with wingbacks and have a very modern approach so it won't be an attack vs defense game.

Their young keeper Michael Cooper i personally believe will be playing for England eventually and he most certainly will be the prem sooner rather than later. Very good shot stopping and excellent distribution under pressure.

I just said in the Chesterfield match thread that I would have preferred if it was away. Plymouth is about as close to home as it can get for me, so it would have been a great chance to watch the team.

Sometime in the 70s we played Plymouth in a league cup game at the Bridge.

I think Malcolm Allison had something to do with them ,and they played football that was astonishingly good, almost like total football.

Think they beat us , so I started looking at their results afterwards, not surprisingly, they were rubbish !

but that night they were superb, rang rings around us really.

typical !

No, I don't watch Plymouth. I'm from Cornwall, I would never be welcomed back home if I regularly watched a team from Devon😆

They play some excellent stuff (for league one standard) presently.

Watching them the last time midway through the second half it randomly hit me that if I was watching it during the Lampard, Conte or Jose meltdown periods I'd have been genuinely jealous of what I was watching 😂

Good info to know, sounds like could have the makings of an entertaining match for us in the 4th round then, hopefully a good one to watch, as long as our team don't underestimate them, should be a good game as long as we get the right result!
