Just got home from the pub :doh:
We've had some great nights in this competition and tonight was up there with the best.
Its been a long time since I've seen such a dramatic finish to one of our matches.
Burnley and Preston done - Blackburn next please...
Preston at home for us - we've avoided them in the cups until now.
A tough one for us although we had a great time in this competition last year beating Bradford and Burnley before narrowly losing away at West Ham.
Probably about 1,500 which is an open end terrace behind the goal or the shitty Whinney Hill stand which is covered and has seats but very small. I've been waiting for this draw as I'm from Preston originally. We still have the friendly going ahead too beforehand.
Preston at home for us - great tie and should be a good crowd on. Our run in this competition was one of the highlights of our season - beating Bradford and Burnley and running West Ham close.

Our chairman isn't making any friends with the Premier League regarding the money we receive in League 2 from them - was wondering what other fans thought?
Andy Holt has been brilliant for us but does like a good rant on Twitter!
I saw a couple of people with Burnley, Blackburn and even PNE (brave thing to do in Blackpool) scarves on so a huge help.
Newport away next weekend so we'll be back to away crowds of 75 :sad:
Yes - I think the previous was around 850 at places such as Bury and Chester in our first League season. We took about 700 to West Ham earlier this season.
There are fewer better away trips to have on Easter weekend than Blackpool, together with the fact we've never played them there in a...
Just hoping for a better game than the one on new years eve (although it was the first one we won in ages) and that the manager of the month curse doesn't hit us - speaking of managers Crewe seem to have had a new lease of life after Steve Davis left Artell seems a very wise appointment.
We are more skill based and will probably come at you - although it is hard to predict which Stanley team will turn up I reckon it'll be an entertaining game. Don't worry about your 9 yr old we came across some of West Ham's finest back in Sept at their new ground in the League Cup ha. May well...
We're unbeaten in 10 now so full of confidence - we're playing similar to last season although some of the departures from last season hit us hard - not just the two lads going to Rangers. I'm going down to Home Park on Sat but missed last season's trip where apparently we put in one of our best...
Halliday and Mingoia were brilliant for us last season - big losses for us. Have they been in good form for you this season? I still cant believe those penalty misses at the Abbey - we went on a shocking run after that. Its nice and sunny in Accrington (for a change) so game on at the 3rd time...
Thought Grimsby were one of the better sides to come to our place this season - Coleman said this in his interview too. McCarten has scored a few free kicks like that this season - if he gets them right its difficult for any keeper to stop them...
Looking forward to seeing Grimsby again at our place after a few years away. Always used to bring a good away following even when struggling in the League. We're unbeaten in 9 so hoping to make it double figures and put right the result from boxing day.
Every credit to the travelling Orient fans - I noticed how the majority of them stayed behind to clap their young players off. I suppose losing Nicky Hunt (a former player of ours) was a blow too with his experience.
Some of us were speaking to Danny Webb before the game - seems very down to...
We're very unpredictable still but after a good result away at Exeter I'm fairly confident (although I thought that when we played you away in December...)
I hear your fans are having a bucket collection tonight - I'm sure our fans will be happy to contribute especially as we've been in the shit...
