I know we've a game to get out of the way before this, but I think this thread might provide our only bit of positive news for the day...

 

I hope we're at home and tickets are cheaper than usual as I refuse to pay the current prices for league games and I really want to go and watch a game again now that we've got new owners.

 

I'd like us to play our best possible side regardless of who the opposition is. I can remember when we played Luton away in 2006 and we played our best 11 with the exception of Carson getting a game instead of Reina. Even though we were 3-1 down at one point in that game we at least started as we meant to go on. With the exception of that season and 2001, our performance in the FA Cup in the last 10 years has been awful and I think we've pissed about too much with team selections.

 

The Northampton game was a shambles and we made far too many changes, lets hope we don't have a repeat.

 

I predicted (Guessed) a couple of years ago we'd get Preston away, this year I'm predicting Scunthorpe at home.

 

Anyone got any preference?

I was gutted to see Swindon Supermarine go out , as they were the only team I was confident in us beating.

 

There's always Dover.

Be interesting to see if Dover reach the Hodgson 'Formidable' index.

No, Dover are the lowest outright. FCUM and Droylsden are also lower but they have to get through a replay.

 

One of them then. So we might scrape through.

 

It better be at home as well, or we're fucked.

 

I'd actually just settle for the manager not destroying the confidence of every young player at the club.
