Dull team, but one that usually beats us.

We ain’t come as far as we think if we’re worrying about the likes of Watford.  They’re on a bit of an up I believe so it would be a decent fixture in my book. We’ll probably get Barrow away again. Hope so.

We have an absymal record against Watford, particularly away. I went to our very first game there in 1969. A 3-0 defeat as the wheels came off under Tommy Doc, one of the very worst Villa performances I have ever seen.

Barrow would love it too, as we gave them all of the gate receipts last time. A fantastic gesture

I fancy Orient away. Revenge for 2014 - actually, 10 years ago this week.
Didn't we stop them getting promoted in the 70s?

Think we'll be in the Southern Section, so won't be Barrow.

We got knocked-out by Orient? FFS, when we die, will Villa supporters get a refund on the 2010s and be allowed to return to earth for the time that was stolen from them?

It's no longer north and south in the 3rd round.

In that case, I change my guess to Chelsea or Newcastle.

Can you really see Chris Heck agreeing to that?
