Having not won an FA Cup game since 2011, The Gulls have now won two in a row, albeit to lesser opposition. We are now at the round we would have entered at if we were still in the National League, and 90 minutes away from the first round proper.
A Portsmouth, Plymouth or Exeter Away could be in waiting so for many Torquay fans this is a very important draw. GJ has said he would like to face a better team to see where the squad is at but for the first time I’ll have to disagree with Mr Johnson - nice easy home tie please!
64 teams to be drawn at this stage (24 NL). Believe it is regionalised North/South.
My prediction - Bromley Away

What an annoying radio station, adverts and waffle before the draw. A good home tie for Torquay.

Glad to see a home fixture. To be honest I'm happy to see us against the smaller sides at this point, it should make it easier for us to progress to the latter rounds and collect all of the prize money on our way to the 3rd round proper.

Winchester City are in the Southern League div one south, two steps below us. Surely we are going to be in the first round proper at long last.

Welll - perhaps this season will throw up some unexpected delights - TUFC deserves some fortune after so many seasons of despair, we must be sure to make the best of it!

Well you can't knock the draws we've had this year. A great chance to bank £50k and get into the first round proper if we can take it.
This year should be about promotion, but the increased money and prestiege of the FA Cup makes it a valuable little run. Having lost 4 league games that we're used to, 2 of which at home, a cup run makes up for those lost dates and lost revenue. It's also got us used to scoring goals again after the sleep-inducing start to the season.

Big game for Winchester. Over 10% of their fan based have booked for the club supporters coach. So 18 Winchester fans are definitely attending. Could be as many as 38 at Plainmoor at this rate.
