    Who do we fancy in the draw then? Would love a non league team away preferably to Stockport or York to hopefully get us on the telly for some extra revenue .
    Have never understood the daft logic of just wanting to "concentrate on the league "
    We are now well overdue imo a good cup run again, can't beat the adrenaline rush of an exciting adventure in the cup to escape the monotony of the league .

    Think they should do draw for first three rounds in one go so you can look at who you have going forward

    Pontefract away would be fun, if they sneak past Halifax in the replay

    Anyone conference south or below at home to give us a much easier chance of getting through to R2.

    Reaching R3 in any way possible has to be the goal.

    If we're drawn against a big gun like The Dog and Duck at home we're out...

    Exeter at home, not bad not great. Glad we are forcing a long away trip for them though.

    Doesn't seem like a great tie really. If you were going to get a league team you surely wanted a Sunderland with a good payday or a team you should beat for a bigger chance of getting a big PL or Championship team away from home where the stadium will have 25k plus turning up

    We need to win a cup game for a change, especially if we’re now a self sustaining club. Winnable but not easy, reminds me of when we got Oldham last season.

    Home draw at least.

    Better than going to Exeter.

    Reasonable tie. As it is the FA cup, l will go to this one. Wonder if it is going to be an all ticket job or pay at the turnstile with the Covid concerns? Not that that the queues outside the stadium are Covid 2 metre distanced.
