Been to Braintree v Oxford today. Pityfully small crowd; poor game. Last week saw Daggers v Luton. The gulf between Division One and Two/Conference is massive based on what I saw. The U's should fear nobody in round two (except perhaps our nemesis the Cobblers).

Looks like a random draw to allocate numbers, which means last out the hat again .
Will get a Shabby away draw .

Poll: No half measure either 1 or 2 ?

Away to Maidenhead United should they beat Port Vale as will be in UK visiting family in that area.
Also been to the ground before and a decent little stadium which they claim has had football played continuosly for longer than anywhere else!

No we're number 40 because we were the 40th tie out the hat in round 1
In round 3 premier and championship in alphabetical order then 45 onwards relates to 2nd round tie numbers (ie if we first/second out of hat tonight we will be 45)

Not sure what to make of that. Positives: Home advantage, a chance of make Round Three.

It'll do for me. Currently watching FCUM vs CFC on BT Sport - what a buffering pile of crap that service is too, makes U's Player look like the complete package.

My one and only visit to Moss Lane was in the 1990/91 season when we drew 2-2 and Tony English and Roy McDonough scored in an entertaining match.

I don't particularly want to return there and so we need to finish the job at home in Round Two.

You can't ask for more than a home match with a non-league side even if they do have a strong record against league teams in the cup!

Well, had such a strong record - prior to last round against Barnsley, they hadn't beaten league opposition for over 20 years.

And that was against a Barnsley side on a horrible run of results. Lee Johnson could be gone if they lose their next game.

Happy with the draw but it presents me with a problem. I had planned to be at Elland Rd on 5 December for Leeds Utd v Hull. What chance the FA Cup game will not be on the Saturday?

I reckon it is a nailed on certainty it will be the Monday 7th featured BT TV game. It won't be on Friday 4th December as Ipswich are at home also being televised (Sky).

BT TV will inevitably be looking for potential 'banana skins' and/or historic interest. Adam Virgo will also want to buls#it his knowledge about the U's. Whilst I reckon this will be another easy U's win; the producers will hence focus on these fixtures for the Friday; Sunday; Monday TV games;

Why don't we run a sweepstake on this I say.....

Friday Northampton Town v Northwich/Boreham Wood
(Lots of background newsworthy interest here)
Sunday Stourbridge v Eastleigh
(Note Birmingham & West Brom are both home Saturday)
Sunday Grimsby v Shrewsbury
Sunday Welling United v Carlisle
Sunday Salford City v Hartlepool (possibly not as TV already been)
Sunday Dagenham & Redbridge/Morecambe v Whitehawk
Monday Colchester United v Altrincham

If Party's lot win the replay their tie at chesham must be a tv game.

Salford will be on the BBC as they are their pet project at the moment. Northwich are, I believe, the lowest ranked side left in the competition so expect them to be on along with Chesham because of thier first round performance. I have a feeing Chesterfield v Walsall will be on somewhere as they might well be the two highest ranked sides left, or certainly close to it. Altrincham's gives us a decent shout.

Personally, I doubt very much we'll be one of the televised games, but I reckon one of the 2pm Sunday slots are very likely indeed.

Is that how it works? I've never had it explained that way, GSY.

So after this win, what number would The U's be?

Poll: In Daniel's PL, Sector4 is top, I'm 2nd or 3rd depending on the update
