    Not sure who I want, but I can think of 79 other teams who will be in the first round, all desperate to draw us.

    I'm just waiting for the stage where all I can do is throw my hands in the air and laugh like a maniac at the whole thing. That could well be the tipping point for me.

    I'm just glad we didn't have to qualify for round 1. Because we wouldn't have.

    This is rubbish. A few years ago we were in the bloody semi final draw. Now we'll be shocked if we reach round 2 against anyone.

    We have to go into round one with the mindset that we are conference standard, and underdogs. We might then get a draw.

    I see Macclefield just evaded the worst start accolade yesterday, losing to them wasn't so bad after all.....

    Rochdale last year used the cup as a distraction from their poor league form and went well in it and still stayed up.

    We need some positivity back. Get back to winning ways. Take anyone really. Should be winning the games at this stage

    Hope we get Met Police, then they can arrest our squad and Rahic for stealing a living whilst they are slapping us about.

    In one sense I’d love Gateshead away, the international stadium is 7 miles from where I live and just down the road from my in-laws.....but my life would be fkin murder if we lost (which I fear we would)

    I believe we can win any game of football until the whistle goes anyway

    Those were the days my freind,
    We thought they'd never end
    We'd chant and dance forever and a day
    We'd live the life we choose
    We'd fight and never lose
    For we were good and sure to win the game.

    Were Bradford City we do what we want seems so long ago :(.

    Now that would be some fixture in the first round, the game could be promoted by Frank Warren.
