Hopefully Droylsden away, brilliant day out.

Smallest team possible at home to get a decent 1st round draw later. Plus the cash that goes with it.

When's the draw made?
Monday?
Title: Re: FA Cup Draw Predictions

It'll be Monday, either 11 or 1pm, seems to vary.

Anyone beatable at home, then Chester away in round 1 would be fantastic (don't care who we get in round 2)

i agree, droylsden would be absolutely brilliant :)

We will be away.

To a BSP side.

It won't be local either.

That is all.

4TH Q round is regionalised so it will be local and shouldnt be any futher away than Kendal last season
Would prefer a lower league team at home but would like to avoid a banana skin such as Nantwich
1st Round would like a League team that we would be expected to beat such as Rochdale, Macc or Chester

That Stalybridge result is frightening. Everyones giving it the big 'an unknown club' and easy passage to 1st round shout, but we could be suprised. We only JUST about got past Kendal last year.

Away at Fleetwood Town would suit me  :)

If I'm honest, I don't want a team lower than us, because they will get themselves up for it and play better against a team in a higher division. Unless it's Belper Town
Title: Re: FA Cup Draw Predictions
Post by: thegazelle on October 12, 2008, 11:11:55 AM
it'll be york away
Title: Re: FA Cup Draw Predictions
Post by: robininstockport on October 12, 2008, 11:22:20 AM
It will Droylsden home or away. I'm going to enjoy watching Sewnior, Denham and Elam ripping them apart down our right.
Title: Re: FA Cup Draw Predictions
Post by: markecky on October 12, 2008, 11:54:55 AM
I to think Droylsden away
Title: Re: FA Cup Draw Predictions
Post by: Bazbatteria on October 12, 2008, 12:14:27 PM
 I went to the Droylsden game yesterday and if we do draw them we certainly have nothing to fear, it was a flurry of speculative passes wayward shots and general panicking. Brownhill looks suitably average, yet it was a bit hard to judge as no player was given any decent length of time on the ball.
Title: Re: FA Cup Draw Predictions
Post by: RocketDan on October 12, 2008, 12:41:32 PM
If we draw any of theses it would be class


Hucknall Town
Alfreton Town
Ilkeston town
Retford united
Belpher Town
Hinkley United

It won't be local RA.

Would you count Tamworth or Rushden as being local to Altrincham then?

I second that.
But I think we will get Nantwich away in the fourth qualifying round

Havant and Waterlooville away would suit me. I could walk to that!
Title: Re: FA Cup Draw Predictions
Post by: stubmanred on October 12, 2008, 04:55:01 PM
I'd like Droylsden away or Curzon Ashton (2 mins from my house!)

If we're going to draw a BSP team - we'll take Vics?! Would add a bit more spice to a derby game...
Title: Re: FA Cup Draw Predictions

Anyone at home.

He wanted to play for a more attacking team who would get a few results!

I can think of few worse draws we could get than Droylsden away!

I'm on the Isle of Wightand supported Alty for 50 years. Didn't realise there was another Alty fan so close to the IW.

Went to Salisbury last Tuesday as this was almost local for me. We're having a great run long may it continue.

Did you get the Red Funnel Ferry???

Northwich away

Ferry form Yarmouth to Lymington,train to Salisbury came back on the Red Funnel though

Post by: brian1925 on October 12, 2008, 09:42:36 PM
I predicted Kendal right last year!!! This time, it'll be Nantwich, but I'd love Vics or Droylsden.

I'm going to Weymouth on Saturday if you fancy it. I could meet you off the ferry in Pompey or Southampton.

Ah yes, Brownhill :)

Blyth Spartans AWAY

but hopefully v*cs at home.

Post by: fuertes on October 13, 2008, 09:30:04 AM
I originally predicted Southport or Stalybridge away, then both were unceremoniously dumped out. I have a slight worry that we'll get Rushden away, but I'd love Vics at home followed by Leeds away or Macc at home in First Round Proper.

I wonder if any other Alty fans have travelled by ferry to watch games....Uncle Globnasty perhaps!

Near, very near!  ;)

I think we'll get an away tie against someone we've never played before.

What time's the draw?

It has been known when slightly more affluent (it really requires bringing the car and that is a luxury I can't afford now when travelling alone). These days it has to be budget airline travel all the way.
