One top-flight London team down, and another waiting in the fifth round if they can do it again tonight. Follow Macclesfield v Brentford here:
“Not only is West Ham a winnable tie and a high-profile opponent, their stadium has enough room for a very sizeable away contingent and happens to be extremely well-connected to public transport,” notes David Howell. Pin that on the dressing room, John Rooney!
Here’s the latest Football Daily. Our ‘Road to Wembley’ team are Port Vale, who are now just two home wins from the quarter-finals! Home wins for Vale in League One this season: three.
In summary: crash, bang, wallop, what a draw. Wrexham v Chelsea might be the headline tie but there’s big competition from Mansfield v Arsenal, and a heavyweight Newcastle v Manchester City tie.
Straight over to Macclesfield owner Rob Smethurst: “Drinks on the house if we win tonight,” he says, hoping not everyone in the packed bar can hear him. As a non-league team, you want either a trip to a big club, or a tie you can win. Macc might have got both there.

“You can’t even see the draw on mainstream TV anymore, let alone the actual games,” says Tony Lehrle-Fry. “No doubt Sajnts will get Liverpool away again, so no point in taking out a TNT subscription.”

TNT have kicked off with a walk-and-talk around a packed Macclesfield dressing room, the only problem being that the camera lens keeps steaming up. Let’s get on with it, shall we?
Three minutes until the draw, according to an on-screen countdown that will inevitably prove to be inaccurate. I think the fifth round is my personal favourite round of the Cup; close enough to Wembley but still with plenty of room for surprises.
The draw will be conducted by Karen Carney and Joe Cole on TNT Sports. They’re at the Moss Rose for Macclesfield v Brentford, which you can follow afterwards with Xaymaca Awoyungbo. Can Macc do it all again? Don’t count them out.

We are all bourgeois Marinakis now: Jonathan Wilson on the twitchy football culture that makes long-term management near-impossible.
“It’s great to see Liverpool where they belong, at the top of the table,” cheers Peter Oh. “Even if it’s just a table of balls, I’m going to enjoy this moment. I would like to see the Reds draw Wrexham. Liverpool v Deadpool!”

Speaking of events at Villa Park, referee Chris Kavanagh has been stood down by PGMO after three big errors during the match.

SharePreamble
Sixth-tier Macclesfield FC face Brentford after this draw, and the Silkmen bring a welcome touch of romance to proceedings following a fourth-round weekend short of surprises. Mansfield Town (who won at Burnley) and Port Vale (whose tie with Bristol City was postponed) are the other teams from outside the top two divisions to make it.
Mansfield were the story of the weekend, prevailing 2-1 at Turf Moor to reach the last 16 for the first time since 1975. Wrexham, who saw off Ipswich on Friday, last made the fifth round in 1997. Only two other Championship clubs are definitely through – Norwich and Southampton – alongside 10 Premier League sides. Find out who they all get at 6.30pm (GMT).
