FA Cup 1st Round Draw - Home to Crawley

Post by **happytorq** » 26 Oct 2020, 19:22

well, at least we don't have to travel too far, I suppose.

Would be nice to knock off a team in a higher division, though.

It could happen...

Revenge tie. Remember who they got away when we last met in the FA Cup?

The most hated rivarly in non league football, Paul Buckle vs Steve Evans. didn't they beat us 1-0 at plainmoor and played BBC United in the next round.

Time for some revenge from this

Darren Deadman - A ref on par with Sam Alison and Brett Huxtable - a comedy trio

Absolutely a revenge required in 5je cup against them. We have a chance of progressing as well. They are doing ok but won't want to come down here for sure.

Brought back some horrible memories. Had forgotten Bevan saved two penalties.
Typical Evans team , guy goes down clutching his head, Billy Kee never touched his head. We can certainly beat them.

Ooh Donald you don’t realise what you’ve done there...

Apologies to those who have already seen / remember this surreal fifth round 1991/92 Rumberlows League Cup draw:

Crawley's manager - John Yems. Has a Torquay scouting role on his CV. And doing alright with Crawley.

No fans at ANY first round tie, even non elite teams not allowed fans.

I had forgotten Crawley were in the league. For a moment I thought we had got a national league south team.

Their current manager is a total Twunt as well. This would be a bumper revenge crowd well up for it if it wasn't for Covid. Utter nonsense. In Oz they have massive crowds for the AFL as just witnessed by the Richmond v Geelong Grand Final. Time we told the bedwetters at SAGE to grow a pair and leave us the f### alone.

This tie has been moved to Sunday lunchtime. BBC have a show with a few matches. Any goal will immediately shown

So I assume the club will get some ‘TV money’ for this game now because as stated on the TUFC website no club streaming will be available?
