Don't think the FA allow that nowadays. TV coverage? Probably not. | | | |

Swapping grounds not allowed unless the team drawn at home has no possibility of hosting the fixture 'for public safety reasons'. I suppose it would have to be a very low-ranked team drawn at home to a Premiership club, but I can't remember it happening for many years.
Apart from anything else, Leeds will sell every available ticket and won't relish coming here for a cup match. Even the Tykes supporters will be cheering us on.
Bring it on............ |  |

There's not many ties in the draw where they can push the possible giant killing act like they can with this one.
Macc v Sheff Wed?
Grimsby v Huddersfield?
Leeds' history might make our fixture stand out. |  | | |

I think we've got a decent chance of a televised game. As Col said, not many fixtures stand out as possible 'giant killer' ties (and boy do the Leeds fans think they're still 'giants'), so a high flying League Two club from Lancashire vs a traditional big club from Yorkshire matches the criteria.
Fingers crossed. |  | | |

I think Grimsby v Huddersfield might attract the cameras, especially as it is a '3 division gap' and Grimsby beat league opposition in round 2.
Same with Macc. Having lashed Swindon 4-0 in Round 1, they might be seen as a better attraction for the telly.
I'd rather watch Dale v Leeds though if I was a neutral. | |

Arsenal v Spurs nailed on.
Liverpool v Oldham/Mansfield is likely too
then
Everton v QPR
Notts Forest v West Ham
Kidderminster v Peterboro
Rochdale v Leeds
Villa v Sheff Utd
All have about equal chance in my eyes. |  | | |

A great draw for us and a game that we have a chance of winning.
Can't see it being on TV though due to Leeds being a second tier club. |  | | |

Would be very surprised if the Liverpool game is shown live, the chances of a upset in that one are very small. |  | | |

leeds will bring 3000+ easy |  | | |

Same here, nor Villa v Sheffield United. Maybe if the ties had been drawn with the Premier League clubs away instead. | |

Personally I don't think it will be televised. However it should be a sell out or near sell out crowd depending on the Leeds allocation.
Either way it should mean a decent pay day for the Dale with gate receipts around £100000 for us and Leeds if it is £20 a ticket |  |

Won't be anywhere near that sum! An 8000 crowd at an average entry fee of £15 = £120,000.
Vat man takes £20,000.
Stewards and Police take a chunk.
FA get a small percentage too.
We'll then split the remaining £90,000 or so with Leeds.
Where we will gain 100% is in hospitality and match sponsorships, programme sales, shop sales etc. These could bring in an extra £10,000 if done right. |  |

I think your last point is probably the most pertinent of the lot, tbf. | |

Your guesstimation is very near what the above said. Pnc4eva said £100000 split between us and Leeds, then your total comes to a £90000 split. |  | | |
