I can see us going goal crazy in this one, 6-1 to the good guys and a trip to OT in Round 4.

We could of got anyone. Manchester City, Manure, Arsenal, Chelsea or even Everton. But we had to get Mansfield Town, oh well fourth round here we come. 
It's a winnable game, and there won't be a binfest about tickets, as the crowd will struggle to hit 5,000, so shirley it's a good draw.

The key issue is winnable for me and a cracking chance to be in the 4th round

I'm well chuffed with this draw. I bet Mansfield aren't!
May well have a good chance of a 4th round game being televised - even more dosh! Bring it on!

C, YA!
Its a plum tie, 4th round here we come. Prefer to get through and get more recognition than being dumped out in the 3rd round by a team like stoke or plymouth

Though of course this could still happen in round 4.Plymouth away is a decent day out from here.I'll take it now.Winnable,too!

If my memory serves me well, the tie has to be played on either the 6th or 7th January, as it is so soon after Crimbo & New Year, I think you will be spot on regarding the attendance.

Last day out we had in Plymouth, we lost 5....0, not such a decent day out after all
Saturday 5th.
Tuesday 7th we are away to Swansea in the JPT, in what will be the FIFTH match in 13 days!
We only lost 1-0 last time we played them down there.

Well happy. It's a double bonus for me as I am still on hols on 3rd round day so won't be able to go, so still have a chance of seeing us against one of the big boys in round 4.

This is a shite draw no 2 ways about it, we cannot assume Mansfield will come along and roll over, to get to round 3 is good and we wanted a big name and we get fecking Mansfield, thank you so much God ! " shakes fist towards the sky in a Basil Fawlty type manner ".
Isnt the club going to lose money with this draw?
It would have been better if away, unless its on TV - Which it wont be.

I have a feeling we will go far in this years FA cup.
Dispose of Mansfield, then a nice home tie against the winners of any of these ties:
Northampton/Walsall v Millwall
Horsham/Swansea v Havant & Waterlooville
Oxford/Southend v Dagenham & Redbridge
Swindon v Burton Albion/Barnet
Colchester v Peterborough

The club should advertise that all holders of a ticket stubs for the Mansfield game get priority for 4th Round tickets.
Or have it as a bundle with a league game?
This is NOT an option - the club have already sold that priority for this season to 'Gold Members' (in an attempt to encourage vital Season Ticket renewals).
