A Really Late FA Cup Fourth Round Double Header Sunday


It's a really late start to the Fourth Round matches. It starts at 11 AM with Palace vs the Spurs followed by Chelsea vs Not a Big Club where Bob will be hoping that the visitors will be leaving Stamford Bridge feeling really Sarri. It's been a really exciting Fourth Round with even a few giant killings. Here's hoping that today emulates that.,
