The 4th round tie is scheduled for Saturday 7 January 2012 and we'll have to wait until Saturday to learn which team wins the replay at Hampden.
After eleven years on the road we are the recipents of a home draw. No doubt the away day junket will take place in the next round (assuming no banana skins!).
