Marie Partner has her fingers crossed that Premiership side Blackburn Rovers will be the venue for Colchester United's FA Cup fourth-round tie.

It will either be Ewood Park or, if they succumb to Cardiff City, a trip to Ninian Park for the U's after yesterday's draw at Soho Square.
And, with 12,367 more seats at the Premiership side's ground, U's chief executive Partner knows which one she would sooner be heading to.
"Blackburn would be ideal," she said.
"It could be a great earner. We never budget for these FA Cup runs.
"All the extra income is welcome as it helps give us a bit more clout in attracting new playersd uring the summer."
