Football supporters have taken to social media with some rather bold claims following the FA Cup fourth round draw, insisting the whole thing was "rigged" after Premier League heavyweights landed what many see as dream ties.
It's fair to say conspiracy theories are flying thick and fast online, with fans pointing fingers at what they believe are suspiciously favourable matchups for the top clubs.
The league leaders Arsenal will welcome League One side Wigan to north London, Chelsea have been handed a trip to Hull, and Manchester City find themselves facing League Two opposition when they take on either Salford or Swindon.
Naturally, supporters of less fortunate clubs aren't best pleased with how things have panned out.

Among the most vocal critics were Aston Villa and Newcastle United fans, who found themselves drawn against each other in what promises to be a proper Premier League battle on the weekend starting February 14.
Neither fanbase seemed thrilled at the prospect of facing top-flight opposition while watching their rivals cruise through against lower league sides.
The Chelsea connection to Hull raised eyebrows too, given that Liam Rosenior previously played for the Tigers before his managerial career.
Meanwhile, Manchester City's draw against fourth-tier opposition had some supporters rolling their eyes, with one pointing out the league leaders seem to consistently avoid the trickier ties.
The so-called "big six" managing to dodge one another entirely only added fuel to the fire for those crying foul.

Fans certainly didn't hold back when sharing their thoughts online.
One supporter wrote: "Another rigged draw for Manchester City. Second-lowest seeded team at home as per. Couldn't give them Macclesfield, would be too obvious."
Another declared: "One good game all draw, just rigged at a new level."

The Chelsea-Hull connection prompted one fan to exclaim: "ROSENIOR SOMEHOW DRAWS HULL CITY, MOST RIGGED FA CUP DRAW I'VE EVER SEEN."
Newcastle supporters felt particularly hard done by, with one stating: "The big six all get easy draws again whilst avoiding each other cos the FA Cup draw is rigged yet Newcastle Utd always get the toughest fixtures too."
Another simply added: "No hesitation, no doubts, the draw was rigged."
There is absolutely no suggestion the draw was actually rigged by organisers.
