And its 1972 all over again.....Whites draw Arsenal.
Crank up that Ford Cortina....bring out those flares and break open a Watneys Party Seven....its a repeat of the 72 Cup Final.
Leeds have been drawn away at Arsenal in R3 of the FA Cup.
The whites' will make their first ever visit to the Emirates on January 8th/9th in the New Year.
It isn't really the order of the draw the whites' would have been looking for, drawing one of the hot favourites away from home. If only the balls had come out of the bag the other way round then a full-house at ER would have been guaranteed.
Even as it seems Arsene Wenger will rest his stars and play his kids, does anyone seriously give us a chance? Even though our away form has been better than our form at ER this season?
Elsewhere holders Chelsea entertain Ipswich and the tie of the round sees Liverpool go to Manchester United.
