[andy]

Stratford at home

Not the greatest tie, is it? Will be a very tough game.

[KenR]

yes AWY but a home tie and a very winnable one.

Agreed. Hope we don't give too much away tomorrow against them. All the players who are not getting full games hopefully. Lull them into a false sense of security then bring in the big guns in the FA Cup and smash them.

Looking at the full draw in what I would guess would be 'our region' there aren't actually any small teams left in it. Quite a few at our level but nobody we might hand pick as an easy game. I'm just glad we're at home. I don't fear anybody yet.

Yes I think only Loughborough were available from a level below us, they have the delights of a visit from Tamworth.

glad you said that Andy. I did a quick analysis of our 'region' and then compared it to the others and it looks by far away the toughest group. The South and the North are all loaded with step 5 clubs I've never head of, and in our section there are 14 step 3 clubs.
It will make it all the sweeter when we get to the First round proper

Joking aside I have a feeling we may get to the first round proper. Glad Ive got the day off to see it.

To be honest I wish it was a more open draw. The fun of being able to get anyone from anywhere rather than a pick of the same old faces. Everything we play in all season is regionalised, it would be nice if the FA Cup was different.

When we make it to the next round does anybody know how much it opens up, or are we doomed to Stourbr*dge away?
