FA Cup 2011-12: 2nd round draw

[Andy_Lochhead_in_the_air]

763 teams (including Villa ) set out on the road to Wembley this season.
With todays 1st round proper draw, by my calculations we are already down to the last 131 with 7 4th round qualifiers still to be decided.
The nearest thing to how football used to be.
Arlesley Town or East Thurrock United away in Round 3 will do me.

My mate follows Nantwich Town and is gutted with their draw away to MK Dons. He was optimistic they could get to the third round. I'd love us to get somebody from outside the football league away from home in the third round. Even though we'd probably draw 0-0.

Come on Hinckley

[cheltenhamlion]

The Glassboys for a shock win at Plymouth.

[bertlambshank]

Come on Hinckley

Calling Mr Cooper.

[villadelph]

What if we nabbed it, how incredible would that be!

[pauliewalnuts]

The absolute best thing about the FA Cup is that this is without a doubt our year.

got to beat Darlington first 

[Legion]

Blackburn Rovers please, followed by Wigan Athletic.

[Legion]

On a more serious note, Kidderminster Harriers at Aggborough Stadium.

I reckon we will get Blackburn at home in round 3 and win. There will be a team who win their 3rd round match and get kicked out and a lucky loser will be reinstated meaning we will also get Blackburn at home in round 4 which we will also win. Then we'll get Man City away.

Indeed.  I have the distinct impression that we have exhausted ways of going out of the Cup to Man United and Man City will take there place.  I can think of three FA Cup exits to Cit£h in the last 20 years it would only be right that we topped that up to the same level as United over the next decade. <sighs wearily>

FC Halifax Town v Charlton Athletic is a good 'un.

[The Laughing Policeman]

At last something we can still win this season..............until Jan 7 that is.

[UK Redsox]

Bristol Rovers away in Round 3, followed by Cheltenham Town in Round 4 and Bristol City in Round 5
