Odds to win the FA Cup despite always being drawn away 13:37 - Jan 7 with 2133 viewsajmcglashan

Looks like we are about 33-1 to win the cup - which hasn't been helped with the impending Bony sale. Thought they were decent odds but then I looked at our history of being drawn away. 7 of the last 8 we've been drawn away and 24 times out of out 34 since 2000. Is the FA against us winning it or something because we are Welsh?!

Written about it a bit more here:

Still - means we can say we've only been beaten at home in the FA Cup twice since 2001.

A) It's done at random out of a bowl.
b) Cardiff get a lot of home ties it seems.

Clearly the balls are weighted and if you watch closely you can see balls being "pushed" into the pickers hands.

33-1 seems about right to me.

Looking at the replays and fourth round ties to come, if we can get past Blackburn, the draw for Round 5 is likely to contain twelve other Premier League clubs (including all the big boys) and only three others.

Very little chance of a spawny draw carrying us into the quarter finals, we're going to have to be at our very best to progress.

If you'd had more faith, you'd have had a flutter way back in August @ 50/1....like me

Some of the balls are heated beforehand, which then distinguishes to the person drawing the balls, the 'hot' and 'cold' teams.

This has always been common practice
