It will depend to what extent the loan players are free to play; no doubt the manager is working hard on this right now. That will also reveal the realistic chances of making any of them permanent signings too.

Not the sort of draw most of us wanted but if the new found cohesion and confidence continues to build I see no reason why we can't win this.

I would have thought the FA would be more proactive with regards getting the earliest of rounds televised and 'out there'. The FA Cup doesn't start in the 1st round or even the 3rd as fans are led to believe so they should make an effort to get some of these tiny clubs exposed on national telly.

I guess it's a case of too much football on telly already so who would watch a game between South Shields and AFC Sudbury for example. That's not the point though. The FA Cup is a journey from start to finish and it should be sold as such.

The BBC have been streaming one game per round online

There was game live last weekend from 3rd round

I'm pretty certain they only televise FA cup games from 1st round proper

Just when you think it can't get any worse

Oh dear.

Maybe next year we'll be entering even earlier, so I suppose we can keep on doing that until we manage to win one.

It couldn't be worse.

Another year goes by without an FA cup win then
