FA Cup draw - Dermot O'Leary

I've just been watching the FA Cup draw for the semi finals, I swear blind that Dermot O'Leary who is an Arsenal fan deliberately drew out Arsenal to play either Bradford or Reading, he seemed to be looking at the monitors, there were only four balls in the see through bowl it would be quite easy for him to cheat and pick out Arsenal's number when he saw that Bradford or Reading had been drawn out. It's the perfect draw for Arsenal.


 


Anyone else see it? I think the people they choose to draw the balls should be neutral especially when there are very few balls left.

What happens if Reading or Bradford win them? I quite fancy Bradford to make the final.

Just after we beat them on Saturday in the League Cup. ;) Every game from here will be a cup game for us! I didn't see the draw so I cannot comment.

Redraw anyone? I bet both are eager to play them to be fair.

When people ask what 'American Pie' is about, they're missing the point. The song isn't about the lines themselves - it's about what is between the lines. The song is about what isn't there.

Anything is possible but if you wanted to choose which ball to pick to ensure the best chance of getting to the final I would have picked the ball that was Bradford or Reading.

Absolute Radio are onto this, they believe he cheated also. It's quite funny because their show mocked Match of the Day and it of course centred around the possible scandal (despite the main host being a Gunner).

I'm glad someone else noticed it, I am convinced he cheated, he looked sheepish after he drew out the ball but in a smug sort of way.
