That just shows how far we've come under Mike Flynn that you are disappointed about a home draw against a Premier League side.

With 4 balls left I was fearing a much worse draw.

Yep, and at that stage with 4 left I was just praying for a home draw. Could have been Cheltenham or Mansfield as well.

Happy with that.........very winnable if we get stuck in and a good shout for TV

Games played 8th-11th January. But if it is Monday 11th, we've already made it into the 4th Round Draw!

They may make the mistake of playing their reserves against us,

County have beaten Brighton on 17 occasions going back to the 1920s. Most recently in 2013 3-1 at their place in League Cup.

Welcome home Ben White.

Apart from the 6 most glamorous premier league sides, all the rest are equally as good a draw in my opinion. As UTP said it is winnable as the FA Cup will be a low priority to Brighton.

May be a BBC Wales TV game as both Cardiff and Swansea are away?

Byron Anthony last game iirc.

Live in Brighton. Been waiting years for this draw. Had to be during covid

I honestly don’t think Brighton will fancy it that much do you? Rodders on a cold winter’s day especially if spectators are back and the County faithful are having a go at them

Nah, Baggies and Blades are bigger than them. Will Des Lynham be coming?

I I was dreading a draw with a non league in the middle of nowhere and I must say Brighton was a relief and a home draw was even better though this health thing is a flaming nuesance I am happy with the draw----County you can win this!!!
Come on the Port !! Bob Bassett
