Ray Lewington said a home draw was a priority and he got one. The Watford boss is clearly delighted with the Hornets cup run, a run that is helping to alleviate the current financial pressures.

Lewington Pounds, not prizes !

Ray Lewington has expressed his delight at his sides developing cup run. Lewington seemed more pleased about his side "earning some money, which in our state is vital", than having the possibility of reaching the Semi-Finals, and maybe even the final.

The draw seems to have opened up with Arsenal and Chelsea drawing each other, and the stage is seemingly set for a Nationwide Team to progress in to latter stages of the tournament. Will it be Watford? who knows, but with Sheffield United, Burney and Wolves all in with a chance of reaching the final four, Watford have as good a chance as any of them.

Consequently Lewington is thrilled with the home draw against either Burney or Fulham, with him believing that Fulham are the weakest of all the Premiership sides left in the draw.
