Let’s hope the ticketing approach is sensible for the next round. For those of us of a certain age it would be good to get a decent away tie if they get through this one. Oxford away all over again

Tough draw for Horsham and come on Wimbledon.
SOme great ties there. . . . The first three rounds of the FA cup are still magical.

Morecambe at home - probably won’t sell out but would be WISE to get a ticket

I reckon it will.
Is that because MORE- will COME than you think?
I always wonder how this draw is done - it always seems to have been done on a semi-regional basis; there's a reason, for instance, why Carlisle haven't drawn Exeter (although Worthing - Morecambe does seem to be a bit of an exception).
It can't surely be coincidence that really long travel distances are generally avoided, can it?

It’ll be in the book.
The first round used to he regionalised, but not for the last 25 years.
Worthing played Alfreton in the north last year, and Horsham have been drawn away to Carlisle, Barnsley and Chesterfield in the last few years.
That might be it then - I was used to that happening, and assumed it still was; seeing draws like Northampton v Kettering, Bristol Rovers v Weston-Super-Mare and Tranmere v Oldham for example acts like confirmation bias.

I’d have agreed before the stadium expansion, not sure Morecambe are a big enough draw now though.
Should be looking at a bumper crowd though. 3,000ish would be my guess.
