FA Cup 4th Round

[ChesterDave]

Its 100/1 at Bet365

To be honest though, I would only consider Bournemouth away at 11/5 (

[RichC]

Bristol City, Brighton, Bournemouth treble is 85/1

92/1 on sky Bet

70/1 I think

BRISTOL City Football Club says it has identified around 50 West Ham fans who have bought tickets among City fans in the home end for this Sunday's FA Cup fourth round tie at Ashton Gate.

A spokesman said "a few" West Ham supporters - a club which previously had a reputation for football hooliganism - had even bought memberships.

Bristol City Football Club says it has spent the last two days checking every single online purchase against its database.

A spokesman said: "As a result we have identified around 50 West Ham fans who have been phoned or emailed to be told that their tickets have been cancelled. They have until 5pm to get a refund, otherwise they will lose their money.

"We are confident that we have done everything we can to stop West Ham fans getting in - inevitably some will slip through the net."

The club said that any West Ham fans who are identified in home areas will be ejected from the stadium.

The spokesman added: "Bristol City fans who think they have spotted West Ham fans in home areas should notify the nearest steward and let them deal with it.

"Any City fans who decide to take matters into their own hands by administering a 'shoeing', a 'slap' or any other violent act, will be arrested, and will run the risk of a national football ban as well as a guaranteed indefinite ban from Ashton Gate. We will have 8 million people watching on TV on Sunday. Please don't let the club down."
