FA Cup Round Two

When's the draw and who do you want/predict?

I'd love Alfreton away. Definitely a 'live game', so a big pay day and should be in to Round Three.

So, Stevenage away it will be then! :roll:

To answer my own question:

"Fans can watch the FA Cup 2nd Round draw from 2.30pm on ITV1".

Believe 8th tier Ramsgate are the lowest ranked team left so them at home please. Failing that any of the 6th tier teams that are left, ideally at home but if any are north west based I’d happily take that. Would be great to have a relatively easy route into the third round and then fingers crossed for a big money away tie.

We really know how to get crap draws, don't we? Could have been worse, but not much... AGAIN.

Yet another garbage draw. I think Dave Salmon mentioned 20k for beating Lincoln. So the benefits are whatever we get for and a possible big payday in round 3.

45% to each side, after match day expenses, I think.

An unexpected draw by the Northern Premier side against high flying Conference team. About twenty fans went to the replay.

Thinks this was the following season after the Hull fa cup tie. Morecambe unlucky not to have got a draw. Remember a goal line clearance.
Amazing how far Morecambe have come, considering the finances

I think there is a photo that shows the ball was over the line, hit the stanchion, and came back out.

The scorer of Hull's winning goal in that controversial match at Christie Park was Russ Wilcox who has recently been appointed as Gainsborough Town's new manager and in his first game they beat Lancaster City 1-0 :D

If we were at home, perhaps, but rare to have the lower club, away from home, if fishing for an upset.

If I am remembering the correct game, I was on the Professionals minibus (at least 15 people) but came back with an old school friend who had driven down from Grange on his own.
I would say at least 150-200 fans made the evening trip and I think we managed to keep the 'Red Army'
chant going for most of the match.

Another evening replay trip of distance was Dag & R in the Trophy which was also very well supported.
I think that went to extra time....got home about 2.30am!
