Yes, shouldn't be a problem they are a much bigger proposition than Worcester City

This will be a good one for me to swerve it’s the sort of match I might pay a fiver to watch but doubt it will be that low.

Exactly the type of game we don't want, no pressure on them but the freedom to play on a big stage with the ability to sneak a win

For us more pressure and frustration against a side who will sit and frustrate

At least we can go into a cup game knowing we've a squad to select from unlike previous years I suppose.

Maidenhead United. Founded in 1870, 13 years before us.
They played in the first ever FA Cup, before we even existed.
Have reached the quarter-finals more often than us.

A good omen is we've beat the "magpies" 3-0 already this season

Two wins then draw Tottenham away. We always beat them at Wembley.

You never know Robins might bring Ponticelli on for the last 20 minutes instead of the final five ?

It's awfully posh around there, lots of grand houses by the Thames, I doubt they will bring much of a 'mob' !

It's just another game that we have to approach prepared and focused.

A cup run with a big Premier League team away in the third round would be great

It's funny - not long ago (well, maybe a while) it all started from the 3rd round for us - not a cup run reaching it!!

Hope we win but not really bothered about the big day out etc in the 3rd Round. We have bigger fish to fry and need to get out of this League asap

Midland 'holders', yes. There have as I'm sure you are aware been a couple of 'contenders' to our title but their efforts have been mainly laughable.

Not that any of us were expecting to be televised the 3 televised games are-
Hyde v MK
Chorley v Fleetwood
Shaw Lane v Mansfield

Still no confirmation of what day city's game will be played on.

Had really never heard of Shaw Lane, it's a good job we hadn't drawn them.

Still says both us and Wasps are kicking off at 3 on the Saturday. Great news. We might actually score in between those posts. It’d also be interesting to see D & D Kelly-Evans, Opeti Fonua and Simon McIntyre all sharing the same pitch.
