After the nation saw us battle Swansea at the Liberty Stadium it was a little surprising that the replay wasn`t afforded the privilege of live television coverage.
Clearly, the Champions League cash-cow takes priority.
But, with ITV and Setanta sharing the franchise for the FA Cup this season, it was blatantly obvious that all four ties would be televised live and that all that needed to be decided was how they were going to be split.
Thankfully, seeing as ticket sales for the Manchester United quarter-final are flying out, it`s ITV (if you can put up with missing the odd goal or two) who will be showing our tie, no need to for an awkward Setanta subscription.
Our tie will kick off at 17:15 on Saturday 7th March.
Best of luck in getting a ticket, I have the feeling there`ll be a fair few more in Craven Cottage than the 12,000 who turned up for the Swansea replay!
