Huge one. Proven cup fighters who knocked out Whitby.

Agreed, it's a great draw and we really shouldn't be referring to this as a banana skin - anything less than a win would be disastrous.

Would love to be still in the cup by then perhaps with a

Big pay day at Old Trafford.

I happened to attend the 3rd round qualifying tie at Hillheads Park in October 2008 when Nantwich Town, captained by Phil Parkinson, won 5-1 away. Darren Tinson also featured, but the star player was Mike Lennon (who I always thought could have done a job for us) scored 4 goals. Hopefully, that is a good omen, although any sort of win would be welcome.
