Luck of the Draw..

Forty clubs are interested in the draw for the Fourth Round, though eight of them will have been eliminated by the time the matches are played. The First Division has been most extraordinarily lucky, no fewer than ten of the fifteen clubs that survived the Third Round having been drawn at bone.

The luck of the First Division is hest revealed by a comparison between the representation of the divisions now and their likely re- presentation after January 26th.
