But they have made the disparity between the haves and have-nots so great in other ways, they don't need to worry about cup draws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even this year there was a 50/50 chance of matching up with a lower league team. (I agree that it would be easy to fix if you wanted to). I wouldn't need much convincing, however, that the warm and cold balls was happening in the 70s. Interesting stuff...how would you heat them there balls? And would they not have cooled by time draw was made. If we can work that out, there's a book deal in this... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As others have said, however, when the draw is on the radio only, you don't need to be that clever. You just read out whatever you like.
