Is the draw seeded? i.e we should get a Championship or Premiership side?
I believe it is seeded yes.

Definitely do not mean to be mong-like.
Didn't think you were! And I agree with you. Its just that I may have said "pass it" or "get it forward" last night, which judging by comments on here annoy some. I just wanted to put it into context as to why such comments may have been made, legitimately (IMO) . Keeping the ball on the ground and Masons range of passing were a joy. If we can make it successful its going to be a good season. If we finish above the relagation zone playing in that way then its good enough. However we will need to work out how to progress from there.

Just read the report in the Adver, a bit critical of Wes's distribution! He must have had more backpasses last night than at any other time in his Swindon career, some of the clearances are bound to go to the wrong place. My only real criticism of last night's game was the amount of time Wes had to be called into action to clear backpasses, we will be punished for that by some sides.

It was the Sunderland tie in the next round that really got things going. A 3-2 defeat at Roker for the first leg followed by one of the most unforgettable games I've ever seen for the second leg at our place when we turned them over 3-1. The rest as they say is history.

Indeed, a CG classic, you'll have to forgive OST, he's getting on a bit now.

I assume that sadly even if we got Clarke in he would be cup tied.

Pity, perhaps he could just sit in a deck chair next to the mackems dug out?

D'Urso tried his best Reg and certainly got a few 'Aaaaah for fucks sake!' out of me!
To be fair, D'Urso played a superb advantage waving play on in the buildup to our goal, when it would have been easier to blow up. For me that made up for a couple of mistakes he made earlier.
