...so it appears we would have had Newport (A), as our ball number was pre-determined.

Would we have liked that?

Not a very glamorous proposition, admittedly, but I'd still prefer to be in the competition.

A long overdue lucrative FA Cup run has the potential to be transformational for this club.

I think the day out in South Wales would have been fun, and possibly a little bit winnable too.

The FA Trophy run will have to suffice again instead.
