PETER CROUCH joked he’ll be sleeping in the “spare room” after wife Abbey Clancy warned him her dad will “kill” him for pairing Liverpool with Manchester United in the FA Cup.
Crouch’s Liverpool-mad in-laws groaned as the former Reds’ striker picked out balls drawing the Premier League’s top two sides together in the fourth round.

And amused fans on social media claim Crouchy will deserve all he gets – or doesn’t get – after he set up the classic clash.
Model Abbey, who won Strictly Come Dancing in 2013, sparked doom and groom for her hubbie by tweeting: “My dad is gonna kill you @petercrouch Man U v Liverpool #facupdraw.”
Ex-England striker Crouchy replied: “I’ll head straight to the spare room” – followed by a head-in-hands emoji.
And the pundit found little support online as many supporters argued the last-32 tie was far from a match made in heaven for both clubs.
One said: “He’s had a mare there Abbey!”
Other jibes included: “Divorce worthy” and “tell him he’s sacked”.
Gentle joshing included: “That was SO bad of him! Please tell him off when he gets home!”
But most worrying was the spate of dreadful new football songs created just for the moment.

Probably the least painful was: “He’s big. He’s red. He sleeps in the spare bed, Peter Crouch.”
But amongst the relegation certainties was: “He’s big, he’s red, he’s sleeping on the sofa tonight, Peter Crouch Peter Crouch.”
Just like the FA Cup draw, sometimes there’s no rhyme or reason!
