Quickest way to fund full time and a promotion tilt is to draw a massive premiership club away in the third round so easiest draw possible please!
Knowing our luck we'll probably draw Chesterfield, Forest Green or Wycombe away!

PS. Bowers and Pitsea or Yate Town (if they win the replay) at home (for once!) 😉

Crewe at home please. This was my first ever Alty game years ago, and I think we could murder them again :)

One of the big league 1 clubs at home please - large crowd and probable TV coverage.  Big earner and nothing to lose.

Barrow/Accrington/Morecambe away will probably be what happens...

Yep, big league 1 club at home please. In fact, anyone (except Grimsby) at home would be great.

Failing that, Sunderland away would be funny, as I've got Sunderland supporting friends. You never know, I did get my Southport wish!

There aren't really any interesting minnows left in the north and I'd rather we had a few in the ground.

I'd love a winnable home game like Oldham.

Ipswich away is doable for me unless it's moved for the telly.

That's fine as long as we don't give them half the pop side!

Not a problem we'll have, since we almost certainly won't get drawn at home. That being the case, I'd fancy a trip to Bolton. Having just watched Wigan destroy them in yesterday's highlights, we'd have a chance of getting them back to our place (and we'd probably get televised !)

Is it just me who finds the draws as exciting as the football?
