We won't be playing Macc this season. It's good to score 4 goals away from home - but not if you concede 6 !

I seem to remember me and a mate used to chant for the allotments (and Kenneth Dewey and Sons) on the bus on the way to Ambrose. Believe it or not... (Then again, a bunch of us were chanting for Shugborough on the way back from Bromsgrove!).

To play Spurs we need to be drawn at home to Southport in an earlier round

The logic there would be badly offset by being unable to play Droylsden next !

Well, the second time we played Spurs after Southport, we had Wigan instead of Droylesden!

I wonder if any of their fans remember the rivalry these days? I remember at a friendly the other year some of their fans sang the red red robin song - I don't know how much you can read into that though.
