Hereford at the Amex.

Unbelievable result to go to Fleetwood and earn a replay. That's more money in the kitty for them as surely BT Sports will show the rematch at Edgar Street.

The progress that they're making I think they'll be a few clubs worried about drawing them in the third round, providing they get through.

I'm just hoping for the players' sake that we get a 'big' club so they can get some more autographs.

Away to one of the non-league teams still in it would suit me just fine. Are there any non-league teams still in it?

Have you thought this through? A close and small non-league club would send NSC into meltdown over tickets. First tier loyalty points set at 370 and above?
I would prefer one of the big clubs away, so that the increased allocation would enable people to go who have missed out on the League game.
Whatever the size of ground, there should be no loyalty points awarded if it is away.

Wish the draw was tonight. I really dislike it being on the Monday night.

Any home game irrespective of the opposition other than CPFC even Liverpool again to see if we have learnt anything from yesterday.

The worst thing would be for us to get a big team like Liverpool at home, as there would then suddenly be increased pressure and expectation from people that we should field the 'first 11'. Main focus should be the league, with the cups there purely so that fringe players and one's just coming back from injury can get competitive game time. Club, players and fans don't need any distractions away from securing Premiership survival.
