FA Cup R5: Home to Cheltenham

27 January 2002

Albion's reward for claiming two Premiership scalps in their longest FA Cup run for ahem (cough) years is a draw against Cheltenham Town - one of the teams they faced in this season's warmup. That game saw them 2-1 victors, but at the expense of a broken foot to Jason Roberts which kept him out of action until Christmas time. The two Albion goals came from Lee Hughes.

The game will be played over the weekend of 16/17 February, which hopefully means that our Valentine's day game at Millwall will be postponed. But only until another midweek night, probably.
