The date and time is yet to be confirmed, but Arsenal will presumably be pressing strongly for a Saturday kick-off, perhaps an early one, because the Champs League starts again with the away leg in Munich on the following Tuesday.

West Ham let the Blades off the hook at the Boleyn Ground on Saturday. Only 1-0 up after a totally dominant first half, they let the visitors back into it in the second. Still, it took a possibly dodgy linesman's decision to seal the draw. Haven't seen replays yet but I'm told it's a very close call.

The United-United replay at Bramall Lane will be a lunchtime kick-off on Sunday 13th.

There are 2 big all-premiership ties in the round which seem likely to be the choice of the TV companies. But with our match being either an much-missed London derby or a repeat of the infamous "Steve Bruce, cry-baby" match, it's quite possible that they'll be interested in it too. Full draw:

Bolton                 vs Derby OR Fulham
West Brom OR Tottenham vs Nottm Forest
Everton                vs Man Utd
Charlton               vs Leicester
Burnley                vs Blackburn
Southampton            vs Brentford OR Hartlepool
Newcastle              vs Chelsea
Arsenal                vs West Ham or Sheffield Utd
