They are desperate to play us, it is why they exist and they know that we can't really win given our status.

The longer it goes that we don't face each other, the more frustrated they get.

Fuck them. I'd rather draw Newton Heath.

Amen.

Absolute madness to actively want to play them.

Yes indeed.  Like wanting to put a really really tight shoe on for 24 hours just to feel the relief of taking it off again.

Lincoln. They would be gutted. Would be hilarious. Up there with 9 (or was it 11 - can't remember) minutes in dreamland.

Blose and Wolves both through, wouldn’t be surprised to see a local derby in round 4.

Just nice to be in the hat frankly.

True as long as we haven't trashed the Fernhurst in living memory and it gets reduced on "police advice".

Exeter City seems to be the pick as the "easiest" teams left (assuming scores stay the same).

Doesn't look like it will be Olbiyun.

It’s great to be in the conversation of who we get knocked out by in round 4 vs 3. Happy days!

Nothing like a TV spectacle late on a Friday in front of an empty ground, with a makeshift side, to show off our celebratory anniversary special kit.

Sorry, not picking you up on this on purpose, it's just the point where I last read this thread. Plus you went didn't you, so fair fvcks.
