Dover away anyone??

 

FC United play Stalybridge today in the competition.

 

normally second to last or last weekend in October, as it's scheduled for 8th November (1st Round) it'll be the 24th October I reckon as the plods need minimum 10 days notice for an FA Cup Tie to take place,

My flatmate at Uni played yesterday for Coventry Sphinx against Bedworth and despite beating Stafford in the last round (3 levels above them) they lost 1-0 so the ideal 1st round draw for me is out the window. Cheltenham or Gloucester away (as local as possible) or a TV game would be ideal for me.

Would really like AFC Wimbledon.

 

That said, it would be nice for the fans in the north to see an away game in their half of the country before December 28th, so maybe not. On the other hand, I'm a selfish barsteward...so Wimbledon away please! :wink:

 

EDIT: Failing a game in the capital, somewhere in the East Midlands please, any excuse to get back for a weekend. Notts or Chesterfield away with their Latics connections would be interesting.

My pick of that lot would be Gateshead away (for fairly obvious reasons). The FA cup like our league does appear to be Southern heavy- which is weird as its fairly obvious there is a bit of regionalisation in the draw. If I was TTA I'd want FC United at either home/away (is Bury's ground as big as ours)- good gate guaranteed and possibly a bit of TV money.

My pick of that lot is the fact Bromley got a home draw v Ebbsfleet. Bromly knocked out my local side at the weekend, so that would have been consider a local(ish for us) derby. A former boss is scout at Ebbsfleet too.

Crawley v AFW is a cracker too, used to live very near there so a feew mated there.

I want Stalybridge to beat FUM ( I refuse to bow to their deliberately contentious moniker) to get a Cheshire derby with Northwich

Halifax v Wrexham is another big guns former league teams game

As is Workington v Rushden

Alty ahve a tough one

 

Afew others tand out such as big spending Chelmsford v Stevenage

I do think of myself as having a good knowledge of English geography, but I'll have to admit I had to google where Paulton Rovers were. I'm sure BigFin wouldn't mind them away.

 

Are they the lowest ranked side left in the competition?
