Well it's dissapointed we didn't get Oxford but at least we got a half decent tie as opposed to crappy Aldershot or Yeovil away.

We would have had a better chance against those 2 sides. |

Do you mean a better chance than if you'd played us, Spencer? I agree.
Balls to the crap draw. Never mind, its a busy weekend anyway so won't be going to Aldershot. Don't know how strong a side we will put out too.

Anyone else worried about this now? Malpas got the sack for losing in the first round of each cup.

Aldershot away would have been good. Proper away end and haven't played them for a while.

We played them in the JPT in 2008/2009. |

Apologies, thought that was at home. Went to rec in 2004ish and quite liked it. We'll beat saints on pens |

Its a fair point though, it has a proper away end. That park you have to go through to get in looks like it could be 'fun' if the home contingent decide to take exception though!

Being a pedant,I thought we won a JPT game under Malpas. |

We even managed to win at Aldershot when Malpas was in charge. Id have backed us to beat anyone in that draw at home. But away to the Cup holders in the 1st round is a tough draw. |

I think Fitton has said before that we are expected to progress in at least one of the cups - but to be fair, everyone associated with the club would take promotion and early exit's in all 3 cup competitions this year i'd think.
We'll probably sneak past Saints anyway...

Got to be pleased with Saints. After an Oxford derby, it's the one I would have wanted.

Does anyone know if Sky are still televising one JPT match from each round?
In which case, Saints v Town should stand a pretty good chance of being that televised game. What you reckon?
