The 20/21 Season FA Cup Thread

[NottyImp]

So approaching the time when we draw the highest ranked team away, right?😁

 

[Lincoln Imp]

There are 42 teams involved in the draw tonight. 14 L1, 14 L2 & 14 NL. The 2 games yet to take place include 2xL1, 1xL2 & 1xNL.

That’s the optimism of a true Lincoln fan there Notty.

A bit odd that this is in off-topic.

That sounds like a cracker. Local Derby of sorts as well. I don't know the history but I wouldn't be surprised if they had quite a rivalry when you consider Wigan were a non league side until 1978.

Yeah they must have played loads in Northern Premier and Lancashire League before that.
Might have been tasty off the pitch back in 70s too I imagine.

Well you weren't far off.
Not a home draw, but a home park draw.
Tough as it gets I expect.

It was ever thus!

So it looks like we avoded a Sunday ko for the 2nd round

 

[HoofGrantBrown]

That really is such a ridiculous "tv schedule".
Makes a total mockery of the FA Cup.

Will Yeovil players & staff really want to be going to Stockport given that situation?

Akeem hinds signed for them today according to the bbc. Another one of ours fixed up.

 

[cheshireimp]

Any NL team that knocks any EFL team out gets my vote . But Brackley Town??? Ok for this one game o hope Brackley win

 

[Chesterimp]

Pretty rubbish first quarter. Spot the non-league side and Spearing still cant time a tackle.

 

[plumbob]

I don't think Corey Blackett-Taylor could take the ball past me. Commentary keeps saying how dangerous he is. I can only assume he is carrying a knife.

 

[cheshireimp]

All credit to Brackley . Held their own .

 

[Chesterimp]

Not improved, has it? Brackley poss created the best half chances, Tranmere strategy to hope the part timers run out of gas late on?

The first match of today is Morecambe v Solihull Moors. Live on BBC iPlayer and BT Sport Extra 2.
