This site also seems to have ignored the match as we don't have a pre match thread, there will be players marks
Myself and @Sage made the decision not to cover Cup games at the start of this season, hence why there wasn't a write up for the AFC Wimbledon game prior to the League Cup, same with the EFL Trophy games.
Take 2018/19 for example, I had to write five threads talking about Doncaster - Gets very challenging, of course if anyone else wants to give Match Preview writing a go should we make the second round then they're more than welcome
@ForeverAddickted. Happy to have a go at becoming a specialist cup game previewer for CL. With our history, it’s never going to be a particularly heavy duty role.
Buxton FC win away at York City and in doing so, become the only seventh tier side confirming their place in the second round.
Other seventh tier teams that could join them:
- Banbury Utd (playing now) - Stratford Town (playing tomorrow)
And in true FA Cup fashion... the Buxton Manager: Steve Cunningham only took charge of the club on Tuesday after the previous Management team got replaced

I bet they'll be happy to write the preview when we get to the final
Nothing screams "Magic of the FA Cup" when the ITV commentary team feel the need to pause talking about the game they're at to bring Premier League news!!
Given the "big" clubs in League One all had home ties, its surprising that only Charlton and Portsmouth managed to avoid a replay or being knocked out.
All have faced lower league opposition as well apart from Sheffield Wednesday.

I think Portsmouth, Ipswich, Sheffield Wednesday and us are not postponed because of international call ups. Pressure of games will be racking up at some clubs.

Only joking.
Will it be a draw of two halves so ITV can go to the adverts
Sheff Wed v Plymouth - 12.15 KO today
FFS and they say romance is dying
impressed that Argyle have sold over 500 tickets for this game.
