So, progress to the next round...will we get a 'decent' draw ?
Looking back at who we've been drawn against in recent years, we've not exactly drawn the jackpot have we...
here's the list..in chronological order
Charlton (A) 1-0
Swindon (A) 1-4
Cambridge (A) 1-1 replay 2-1
Macclesfield (H) 6-0
Dover (H) 2-0
Arsenal (A) 1-2
Dagenham (H) 6-1
Port Vale (A) 1-0
WBA (H) 0-2
Port Vale (H) 3-4
Accrington (A) 3-2
Grimsby (H) 3-0
Birmingham (H) 2-1
Oldham (a) 1-0
Chelsea (A) 1-3
Blackpool (H) 0-1
Welling (H) 4-1
Worcester (A) 1-0
Chelsea (A) 1-2
Stockport (A) 1-3
Accrington (A) 0-1
Swindon (A) 0-1
Ebbsfleet (H) 2-1
Mansfield (A) 0-4
Bristol City (H) 0-2
Liverpool (H) 0-2
So that 26 ties and the best we've done for a home draw was Liverpool back in 1999, 14 years ago...We've had Swindon twice, Port Vale twice and Accrington twice, with 3 good draws against Chelsea (twice) and Arsenal, but all away from home.
So, we MUST be due a plum home draw this time, yes ?

So if we win this one,
Can we call ourselves 'Giant Killers' !
You know, beating a team from a bigger city, Higher in the league than us, more fans, recently beat us - to some tune !
38.
Just asking. Wouldn't a combo of Vaughan/Novak be better than Vaughan/Church. Because clearly, Church does not want to be there (at Town)..
not from what I witnessed anyway.
I just hope Pearson sees this fixture as a hindrance & holds back on picking his finest eleven, although I'm not sure he's that sort of a bloke. I have a feeling they will be coming to WIN !
Two good performances against Brum & Watford though will make this one hard to call.....
Lets see how we go till then.

Cracking gesture from Town, £10 admission and £5 concessions for the Cup game................
Let's hope we get 18,000 down for this now....no excuses...
