My thread not good enough then? ;-)

It's at home against Hyde or Harrogate Town, a game which should be comfortable as Hyde are bottom of the conference and Harrogate are sh*t. Would have loved it to have been away but hey, we at least look like we're in the 2nd round.

Harragate. Not Harragate. Remember that penalty win, checking cefax to see if we made it. At least it's a tie most of us wanted. Home to non league opposition.

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!

No easy games in the FA Cup. But home against lower opposition is the best we could of hoped for.

Maybe a chance to test out a few fringe players?

100% not. Its a cup game, money and pride is at stake. We've come unstuck against non-league sides enough times in our history to know that you can't approach a game like that
