All the non league sides at home will get a TV game I reckon

The delights of The Scally scaffold possibly. Which is now reduced capacity so if we get through it be a nightmare to get a ticket 

Don't they have to give us 15% of the ground capacity?

Priestfield is a 10 minute drive from my house, so happy with that draw.

The most important result for Cafc today was Pompey had two injured players who I believe are regular starters.

Portsmouth really won't care about going out the cup when they are desperate to be top 2 and go up automatically.

Chesterfield would've taken a defeat today if it meant League 2 football next season.
It will help their confidence but promotion is their priority.

They are presuming we’ll beat Cray Valley - never presume !

Chester/York vs Wigan and Eastleigh vs Reading are both great ties. Two former PL sides away at non league sides, one a recent FA Cup winner.

I imagine Gillingham vs Charlton would have been 6th or 7th choice if we had gone through first time.

Wrexham again. The Manu of the lower leagues. On every time!

3.45pm on a Sunday = Sunday breakfast / brunch in the US. Those yanks will want to see how their team is doing.

I notice Portsmouth’s front runner for POTY did his ACL against Chesterfield last weekend. Massive blow for them.

Imagine if May started against Cray and the same had happened to him… 😳

We’d have brought Kanu back from Southend to continue what he started at the beginning of the season

I assume he's not cup tied then

Not anywhere close to being at the same level. If we lost May we'd be absolutely fucked

Slough having a week to forget. 

Lost 4-3 to Welling at weekend, who are having a terrible season, and now 7-2 down to Grimsby

Gillingham away will be limited tickets .As the Scally scaffold is no longer able to have 3000 people due to safety restrictions

Charlton are meant to be playing Port Vale away on the 3rd round weekend. Both clubs have tricky away fixtures with Stevenage v Port Vale in 2nd round.

Because probably half our season ticket holders are not interested in turning up for cup matches, so the club does not open all the home stands.

Because we close most of our stadium for cup matches.
