FA Cup 1st Round

[Alty]

Draw shortly. Very excited for this.

 

[Alty]

Barnsley at home. Good draw. Maybe one for the telly

 

[Jemfy]

Very underwhelming.

Winners of us and Barwell vs winners of Grays and Welling. Nobody involved will be happy with that draw I imagine.

Genuine chance to progress with the home draw, though. Could have been worse.

 

[CrazyImp]

Shitehawk away if we get past Tranmere, what a laughably terrible draw, utterly uninteresting. I was hoping for Notts/York away.

 

[Reginald Fodstain]

Whitehawk away (replay dependant). Google maps required...

Brighton. Fuck the replay then!

 

[Pliny Harris]

Would love Wycombe Wanderers at home personally. One of the few league teams we haven't played.

 

[Sparrow]

The FA Cup is cancelled this year.





Because we're out.

 

[GodsGift]

You can have that Tranmere, we'll concentrate on the playoffs.

 

[Aberstone]

Home to Colchester. Full house, possible TV game... I'll take that.

 

[Bluandwite]

Meh, I'm not arsed we're out now.

Been there, done that.

 

[Jemfy]

Genuine chance to progress with the home draw, though. Could have been worse.

Not a big prize for tomorrow nights game, but home is better than away of course, so it could be worse. So many teams in there that there were some real stories if we got drawn against.

We've just got to forget about it, concentrate on tomorrows game and see where we're at come the end of the day.

 

[eightiesrobin]

Decent draw that.

 

[FishyMackem]

Home tie against St Albans. Looking forward to it!

[Jemfy]

Home to Colchester. Full house, possible TV game... I'll take that.

I've got your lot, Didcot, Salford and FCUM as the most likely TV games. A couple of non-leaguers away at big L1 sides possible, but less likely. The media are wanking themselves in to a frenzy over Salford so expect them to be on as dead certs.

 

[GuiseleySteve]

If we can muster a victory over Halifax in tomorrow's replay, Wycombe at home will do for me

 

[Tranmerewhite]

Can anyone explain what a Whitehawk is and it's relevance to football please.

 

[Jemfy]

Decent draw that.

Outside chance of a TV slot, but a few bigger ones more likely.

It's what you get if you fuck a seagull with a wad of cash.

 

[1884 Belmont]

Got to beat Lincoln first. Could have been worse, though.

 

[rudebwoyben]

It's the part of Brighton that no one visits.

 

[Pliny Harris]

If we can muster a victory over Halifax in tomorrow's replay, Wycombe at home will do for me

I'm sure you have the greater mustering capabilities, sadly.

 

[CrazyImp]

If Tranmere want tomorrow in return for 4+ league points, then I'm not going to shed any tears.

 

[GuiseleySteve]

I'm sure you have the greater mustering capabilities, sadly.

Perhaps we should both agree to limit the game to one half of 45 minutes as it seems both clubs can only manage one good half in a game

 

[Shotsfan1993]

Bradford at home, not too bad. Hopefully either BBC or BT jump on the Bradford cup run bandwagon and chuck us a few quid

True. It might be a matter of who can keep converting penalties the longest then. Can you make sure away fans can enter for free between the van and the tea hut again?

 

[Etienne Vermeer]

What's a Fylde?

 

[Chris FGR]

Solid, will take that.

We've got the players good enough to rise to the occasion. Wimbledon will be tough, but we've got nothing to lose and have more of a chance this time then in any of our league meetings.

 

[GodsGift]

Whitehawk on Twitter: "Hawks handed a home tie against either Tranmere or Lincoln. Five years ago we were County League. Oh. My. Word."

Fair to say this would be their CUP FINAL.
