Home draw would be nice perhaps against Forest or even the likes of Middlesborough or Stoke

Probably get Harrogate away

Just had a quick check and realised I've been to most of those grounds so given it will be an away tie I would be happy for it to be any of Harrogate, Middlesborough, Burton or Leicester to chalk off another one.

Same for me, I was going to write a post saying I'd like a champ draw somewhere I haven't been (assuming we're away!) And I think it can only be Boro or Leicester. Please not burton, I've got Vietnam style flashbacks to boxing day.

 

[stokeimp]

Stoke away would do me

 

[Limpy]

I wouldn't mind Everton away or Wrexham at home, either a big night away or the circus coming to town :)

 

[impsimps]

Ball number 10 will automatically be put in the 'away' pot.

 

[SalfordImp]

Salford away please.

 

[Pompeyimp2]

It'll be Mansfield away, I tell yers

Middlesbrough and Barnsley are the only two 'traditional' Football League clubs I have never seen play (obviously excluding some of the Johnny-come-latelies such as Salford and Harrogate). Leicester is one of the grounds I lost when they moved to the Kingfailure a few years ago; one of the great Lincoln City cup nights at Filbert Street in 1982.

Shame, more Prem teams in the southern draw so it is more unlikely we'll hit a big side. Low prize money in this tournament so always better to get a big draw, tv money and bow out.

...so always better to get a big draw, TV money and move on to the next round.

So much for levelling up!

Leicester are winning 2-0. It would be nice to get them.

Well, Burton look absolute rubbish on that showing. Leicester at home would be a good one.

That means they will beat us twice again this year now

 

[cherryexile]
