Harrogate v Hyde replay is on Tuesday evening, so we'll know for sure then.

Just don't attempt to drive to Great Yorkshire Show because the traffic queues are horrendous. The Yorkshire Showground is in Harrogate only a few miles down the same road the ground is on. Whereabouts in Harrogate did you live Jeff?

it was a good night!

persuaded mrs SNW and the two lads to go! the lads only went cos there was an offer of pizza hut for tea! =D

didnt expect it to go to pens, but we were lucky that night! they should have won it!

remember the harrogate fans queuing around the block to get in and we just strolled up and waltzed in - and it was the first time I had met Mr steve breed!

Whichever team we play, let's hope our game doesn't go to a replay...!! :S

A side two divisions below at home is as good a draw as you can get on paper. They will go all out for the upset, but we should have the quality to get into the 2nd round. I think we'll be in mid-table, so it would be a good year for a nice cup run.

WE WANT A REPLAY! WE WANT A REPLAY! ( not if it's at Hyde though, it's like Accrington and it will be dark )

The Metropolitan Police have drawn Crawley at home. I've always been a strong supporter of the police, and at least they won't get distracted by having to arrest Steve Evans. Maybe Rotherham at home for them in Round 2?

Haha GITP, I made a similar joke on Twitter. Doubtless it'll be one of the TV games, despite meaning the sum total of **** all to anyone.

Matt.

Perfect draw for TUFC to be honest, really ought to win that comfortably and get another step closer to Round 3 and our annual horrendous draw away to Hartlepool or something.

This being the same Harrogate who, when we played in the FA Cup a few years back, drew 1-1 with us at Plainmoor then completely battered us at their place. Somehow we got away with a 0-0 draw, then winning on penalties with Andy Marriott saving one then stepping up to score the winner. That then set us on the path to our tie with Birmingham

Good memories of a very cold night, but I'd be vary wary of calling this a comfortable draw. Winnable, but we need to make sure of that!

I think that may have been the coldest I have ever been - during extra time I was desperate for a winner for either side!

Pronounced 'arra gut btw

Spot on!

Horrorgate...!!

I was looking through the attendance figures for the fourth round qualifying matches over the weekend and on the whole they were exceptional. Clubs like South Park got over 600 but Hyde, our potential opponents in the first round got 393! I dare say there will be a few more in attendance should we get them in a replay but that is poor to say they are now a conference side.

To be fair Harrogate isnt the most interesting tie for them having only been in the same league last season. And the fact United were home the same day wouldnt of helped..

To be fair we couldnt manage 700 at Plainmoor when England where supposed to be playing. As stated Hyde is full of the red shite, so no wonder they had a low crowd
