The draw for the 4th round of the FA Cup has not dealt Cardiff the best deal.

No disrespect to either Southend or Tranmere but after playing Leeds we were hoping for a bigger draw.

What this will mean of course is that City will fancy their chances of progressing further. Southend are 3rd division and City would have won there last year bar a Rhys Weston own goal and Tranmere are our peers this year. City drew with Wirral's finest earlier in the season.

The full draw is (ties to be played w/e 26th January meaning out home game with Bury is postponed).
