  • Woking are big at evens away to Hemel
  • Billericay 1-1 Sheppey
    Bromley 3-2 Wealdstone
    Ebbsfleet 2-2 Slough
    Torquay 0-2 Maidstone
    AFC Totton 0-1 Ramsgate
    Cray Valley 5-2 Enfield

    Means that the lowest teams still in the Competition are Cray Valley and Ramsgate from Level 8, whilst Sheppey can join them both.

    Reckon they'll be guaranteed TV appearances if they're lucky enough to get drawn at home against League opposition.
  • I saw a fabulous game at Horsham. The Isthmian Premier side played out of their skins in the first half to go in 2-0 up against National League’s Dorking Wanderers. Second half was more of a backs to the wall effort at times but Horsham missed a one on one that could have sealed with 15 mins left. To be honest, Dorking were very disappointing.
  • So hope the paper mills get a decent draw. Bring back super kev and it's there's to lose.

    Let's hope that this year we can at least exit the competition to a side in the top 48 of that list.
  • Our draw is going to be someone like Doncaster at home isn't it? And then get dumped out 1-0 by them.
  • Bromley or Cray Valley would be good
  • Barrow or Harrogate away would be nice.
  • For entirely personal reasons I want Worthing , but it's going to be Crewe Away or something like that.

  • The worst draws would be Wigan or Portsmouth away as they're the league games either side of it.
  • Away at Cray Valley Paper Mills will be tricky, they have a ground capacity of 1000 allegedly.
    The upside is it is walking distance for me, the downside is I would never qualify for a ticket.
  • Hoping for Maidstone away, the gills historical rivals
  • Squad has enough depth to take the cup seriously this season.

    Personal preference would be:

    1) Worthing
    2) Ebsfleet 

    A trip to Wrexham/Wimbledon are probably the only two football league games which interest me.
  • Barrow or Harrogate away would be nice.
    Or Salford.
  • The scars from Northwich Victoria run deep, tattooed on the heart as it were.
    For that reason I don’t want to draw a non league side.

    Checks loyalty points. 👀
  • Yeovil away would be my choice.
    I've missed that hour+ drive and old school open terrace leaning on a crush barrier.
    The monsoon game and a couple of visits with my son and his grandad, my now late father-in-law.
    Would be nostalgic and fun.

    Then again, away to FC Halifax in 2011/12 season was a great day out, apart from the early departure for a midday kick off. 
  • As long as whoever we draw away, has a rival local team, who come on here to try to get us to use their parking  and pre game bar receipts

  • Borehamwood away would be nice for me. Hemel away even better

    Thought it was earlier than that, 11am maybe, wanted to go but no trains from London on a Sunday would get me there in time for kick off.

    Yes, could have been earlier. Left Welling for the journey way before sunrise.

    I went by coach. We departed at some ungodly hour, it was cold and wet.
    In my list of great days out, it didn't make the top million.

    Just give us an away tie against a Non-League team please - Always love to see us facing someone "new", and an away tie will hopefully see us on the TV to go with it.

    If its against a local team, then even better.
  • Has the draw ever once started on time when it was supposed to? 
  • Fingers crossed for Greenwich derby.
