I hope HT & Kettering aren't drawn together personally (save it for the final !). 

Be great to get Birmingham, Wigan, Bristol Rovers etc. 

Hopefully you get your trip to Exeter 🤞

Think we both pulled tricky draws there. Clubhouse liked ours, I didn't. Think this is as far as we go.

[Daggers]

Totally paid for

Just checking up on the FA Cup games and noticed the BBC said Wrexham losing to Harrogate was a real shock..

 

Well maybe on current form  but they were in the same league last season?

 

Be like someone from the Championship beating Leicester or something really...

 

Least Kettering and Wealdstone got home ties to league sides - so probably be on TV.

Hope not. I could get to a Saturday 3 but would struggle with others.

 

Think it'll be the inevitable Sunday lunchtime shitshow game.

Think Harborough getting picked is a long shot. If they were home then theyd be pretty much nailed on. Shame for them as there will only be about 5k at the game so not a lot of revenue from gate reciepts. Couldve done with TV money.

Any surprise result is likely to be via Gainsborough Trinity v Harrogate or Wealdstone v Wycombe.

Some good ties there for the teams from

non league. I can’t see Harborough being on, much like when Coalville were at Charlton

Wycombe haven’t lost in the league since their second game of the season to Birmingham (and their first game was a loss to Wrexham). 
 

It took Villa to knock them out of the League Cup.

They will have made about £80k + from the FA alone, even if they lose to Reading. I reckon they’ll be more than happy with that. 

[blueharmie]

Reading away will take that . What a super day out that will be .

 

If we give it 100% that will be enough .

 

They are four leagues ahead according to my reckoning .

 

But , this is football after all .

I’m sure it’ll make their backers happy anyway.

I think they've got a good chance to be fair, 2nd round there's much fewer ties to get in the way.

Worst of all worlds for Harborough. Not on TV, but no Saturday 3pm either. Same with the Staffordshire derby.

 

Really poor from the broadcasters not to pick at least one of them.

11.30am on a Saturday 

What's the point

It's the sort of thing i wish fans would unite and say 'screw that' and don't go.  But thats a pipe dream.

[goody2028]

That’s shite for Harborough, although selfishly quite happy as might go that now.
