Will we get a big team or will they all play each other and we'll be left with Boring Wood or Hartlepool

Any big team. After getting this far from the 2nd Qualifying round we deserve a big team

I'd love Spurs or West Ham away as I have friends who are fans of both.

That said, I'd fancy us to beat anyone from the National or League 2 at home on this form.

Newcastle at home (my prem team).

Remember going to Wolves-Newcastle in the third round back in '03. Great game.

any prem team away. Preferably liverpool, everton, spurs or newcastle. Or a big midlands derby would be nice too with one of the big 4.

Big Premier League side, or local Championship club at home. Nice to get Sheffield United away, or a London club.
The best team we ever had- since i've been watching the Harriers (2002-)

Spurs away for me as the ground is brilliant, but any prem club home or away will do.
Watch us get Peterborough again lol

Man City because Pep would respect us by playing his strongest team, we may get thrashed but what an experience we would have seeing all those superstars.

Any big prem or championship side at home or Reading away (local for me and my boy's 'other' team)

Man City at Harriers would be a sight to behold. Imagine seeing that technique up close.

Folks you are all too impatient - a couple of home ties against sides we can be reasonably expected to beat followed by a Premiership side in the 5th Round.

Sheffield club away please...I could do with saving petrol money as my kitchen extension is proving to be a money pit.

I would also like to personally receive 50% of the gate receipts to help pay for the project.

Any Premiership mob and they will throw on a mix of their under 23s, 'possibles' , 'probables' or 'highly unlikelies' as they usually do against such "plucky non-leaguers" (copyright BBC)

Much better would be Blues or Forest away, or Shrewsbury at home.
Which probably means it gonna be Harrogate away......
