Who do you think we will get? (home/away)

Who do you want us to get?(home/away)

I hope we get Histon at home!

I think we'll get someone like leeds away

Would be nice to get Leiston (where's that?) or Fleetwood at home or a game against Barrow.

Then again Leicester away (we missed out on a trip to the Walkers' Stadium for the play off final a few seasons back)

As long as we are at home and not v a non league team will do for me!

I'd rather us have a non-league team as it increases our chance of getting to the 3rd round. The lowest team left in the comp would be awesum, plus probably TV coverage! Definately at home though

If we drew a non league side then I think it'd have to be away to stand a chance of live TV coverage. The TV company gamble on possible upsets and us at home to a lower league team would be seen as a home banker in their eyes.

Would be nice to get Leiston (where's that?)

100 miles from London & 50 miles from Ipswich its in Suffolk, a coastal town , population 5,500. The team are currently 4th in the Ridgeons Premier League. They have only lost one game this season to the top team Lowestoft . Leiston's highest attendance this season is 210.
Its home to 'Summerhill school' - the school where the pupils make the rules. It's a hell of a way to go.

That's who I want then, at home.

"Number 21 - Morecambe........ versus number 73...... Awesum Athletic!"

That'll do for me.

i was thinking i had got my 1st Whoosh moment

Wouldn't mind Macc to be honest, but most definately not Blyth Spartans or any other non-league team home or away.

I remember our Cup exploits in days of old v league clubs (Chesterfield, Ipswich et al) and the way we raised our game. I'd hate for us to be the fall guys now!

Barrow away
