    We are second in league 1.

    Surely every game we could have got is winnable.

    Playing against ex City loanee Jonathan Tomkinson and Lee Angol?

    We do seem to get more than our share of away fixtures in cup competitions

    Every possible tie was winnable, I was meaning that the tie being winnable is the only positive of the tie

    Well that's dull. That said, we are favourites, let's get the job done and see if we can actually get a home tie for a change! I'm a bit gutted this season as I enjoy the early rounds of the cup down at VP and I can't get to a game until into November.

    I had to look them up. League two I didn’t know. Lee Angol understood, but Tomkinson there? Surprising.

    Terrible tie really but being selfish I'm happy with it as I've never been to Cheltenham so I'm tempted to make the trip so that I can tick it off the list.

    If only you could put the same level of effort into attending home games.

    In fairness, it'll be very difficult to get someone to scan my ticket at Cheltenham but if there are any volunteers I'd be very thankful.
