FA Cup Draw tonight - who do you want ? (1 Viewer)

FA Cup draw tonight @ 7pm?- who do you want?
Unlikely to be on TV, unless we get drawn away to some tiddler of a team, but it would be nice if it was someone who could accommodate a decent away following.

I'm tempted to say Notts Co away but I have a bad feeling about it if we do ...

 

[rob9872]

I guess Salford away would be a nice one - new ground to visit and possibly on tv

I'd rather not watch us lose in front of 2,000 part-time United fans, just someone shit at home where we can quietly progress into the next round

Not Southend away then, mate?

I think the Notts County fans would groan more than us, Rob?!

 

[westcountry_skyblue]

Weston Super Mare away as I live here!!!

 

[pusbccfc]

Met Police away.

Agree, I'd like another decent cup run this year so home draws against non-league sides in rounds 1 & 2 is my preference

Only if we can have Darren Drysdale as ref

 

[Houchens Head]

Met Police away.

Really? Where did you meet them? :happy:

O2 Arena, but Sting not as good these days

Got to be Haringey Borough away. They have a seated capacity of 280 and host a car boot sale before games. Also Frank Nouble’s younger brother scored the winner for them against Poole Town on Saturday

We've got a good record in the cup against teams from Haringey

Just south of Tottenham cemetery on the map - bodes well !!

 

[oldskyblue58]

for family reasons i would like us to draw Tranmere away

We shouldnt fear or worry about anyone at this stage

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Chesterfield away, so we can laugh at Kyel Reid and Tim Fisher Round 2 can take place at the train station!

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Hampton & Richmond sounds posh (capacity 3500) and Weston Super Mare holds similar (and is, I think, under cover!) Not sure what the away allocations are, though. Likely televised if we got one of these.

 

[Earlsdon-Loyal-Blue]

Grimsby Away

H&R is a pretty awful ground, won't be any cover for away fans. Also minimal places to drink beforehand and there isn't really a train station close by. Hampton is a small place

 

[Magwitch]

Met Police away.

Too many dodgy fans for my liking

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Think there is a schoolboy joke there, somewhere (titter)

 

[steve82]

Chesterfield away tops my list as it’s a favourite or Crewe too.
Failing that a easy home passage to the next round like last season to be in the hat for the 3rd round.

Hopefully be a Saturday 3pm and not a 2pm on a Sunday.

On a side point what the availability of the Ricoh pitch that weekend?

Any of the following teams away:

/ Rochdale / Oldham / Macclesfield / Guiseley / Warrington or Halifax / Chorley / York City / Stockport / Salford

 

[Magwitch]

Northampton away

 

[steve82]

Northampton away

Cannot believe I’ve overlooked them

Any non league team away. Failing that Macclesfield as they’re one of the only two I need to complete the 92 again.

 

[steve82]

Should we be drawn at home it won’t be a Sunday game, the landlords are using the stadium v Northampton saints on Sunday 4th November.

Last year we played too many Sunday 2pm games in the early cup rounds

Torquay away cos I’m down in Brixham visiting my Mum!

Wouldn't be the same without that miserable sod Nolan in charge

 

[Otis]

Me too. Not sure she can accommodate both of us to be honest though.

 

[JimmyHillsbeard]

Hmm got to raise an eyebrow at all these folk who claim “an easy lower league team at home”. Have they not seen our record vs Worcester, Northampton etc.?

Macclesfield or Stockport away for me but we’ll probably be away to Portsmouth

No, I'm going to resist...……..

 

[SkyBlueMatt]

I always like Crewe away, everything is so close. Living in derby is an easy trip over there (on the worse possible train) and it's normally always a good following.
