  • Brighton away please so I can get the bus over 😆
  • Anyone at home will do, preferably a team we can and will beat to go through to the next round and rack up the prize money


  •  Cardiff away would be nice for me, only new ground in Championship / League one .
  • Unless it's a local match I always want a home draw as away games midweek are a pain.

    Birmingham are in the Northern part of the draw and Wolves in the Soutrhern part yet Wolverhampton is north of Birmingham.
    It is a bit bizarre, as last year Birmingham were in the southern draw and beat us.
  • Bromley at home might be a good one, ought to win and a chance of some atmosphere

    They have to spread the higher placed teams in the pyramid evenly across the North and South sections

  • Bromley knocking Ipswich out, utterly mental.

    Fulham away could be good, the real glamour sides come in at the next round.
  • Will they run a boat for a midweek game?
  •  Brentford away would be good.
  • Brentford, Fulham or West Ham away please. 

    Or a minnow at home 
  • Brighton away would be ideal. If not then Wombles at Home. 
  • West Ham home please

    I’d be surprised if they know that.
  •  Cardiff away, give Nathan some time in the Welsh Valleys 
  • Cambridge (Away)

  • Cambridge away
  • Chance to change the whole 11 again … 
  • Take that. A decent chance of progressing to the next round, and then lets get a big team at The Valley.
  • Not too bad a draw
  • Take that and party

    Did anyone have a punt on that draw happening? 


    It will be a real education for our young players.
  • A league 2 side gives us a decent chance of reaching the 3rd round.
