I'd rather have Forest Green tbh, make the tie a bit interesting as Rotherham at home in the FA cup just sounds so dull... I think whoever we get it'll be tough but we find out our opponents tonight anyway. I think Rotherham will be too strong as they are on an excellent run of form at the moment.

Come on FGR!

I think whoever wins will give us a good game but we should go through anyway.

I'm hoping FGR win tonight as it will give the 2nd round tie someting extra but to be honest I'm not that fussed

Come on FGR!!!!!  Beat those northern Charlie Hull's.

definately want FGR, i think it would make for an excellent atmospshere, easy to get to for them so they should bring a good few hundred and will be looking forward to a pretty big day for them.

I hope FGR don't win. Otherwise the press will rant on about a potential giant killing, and if we lose will won't hear the end of it ala fucking Hereford and that bastard R*tford

I want FGR to win, be a nice away following of 5-600 for the game whereas Rotherham will bring 100 fans and his dog.

We will win the game no matter who we play.

I don't want Rotherham at home but then again a home tie with FGR hardly sets the world on fire either. I don't really care with that in mind and as long as we make it through to a possible money spinning round 3 game i don't care.

Rotherham for me......FGR is just too risky.

     BTW, I recall Mark Robins scoring a hat trick for Rotherham v us, a few years back, and  got an inkling someone else may have scored one since.....any ideas?

Rotherham 0-2 FGR at the mo.

Looks like it's a local derby then... If you can call it that?

definately local, not really a derby, but should be good.

FGR will be no pushovers, but you have to be happy to have a non-league club at  home (unless they do a  Stevenage on us)

Fleetwoods got 20 goals for them alreadyy this season, so it wont be easy.

How can you say its not a derby when they are closer than Poxford and Brizzle to us?

By definition if its local its a local derby surely? :?

3-0 now.  Fleetwood with the goal.

i take derby to mean matches with rivalry and history, of which there is none. don't know why, its just the definition in my head.

3-0 FGR.. Incredible and well done to them, they will prove a stern test I think.

Ifil should be able to keep Fleetwood quiet, if he's fit that is.

ok no problem I was just querying  :D  must admit I dont consider Cheltenham as rivals but I do consider the games as local derbies funnily  :)

:(  shit.

Yeah I just saw they have gone 3-0 up gonna be a tough game against them, I wasnt expecting such a convincing win by them.

i think i would only consider the bristol pair and the pox as derbies.

i'm gonna be boring here and say it'll be easier to get FGR watched as they're 'local'

Bless 'erm  :D

 FGR is closer than all of those. They're also above O*frod in the pyramid, as are Salisbury  :)

  This has nightmare written all over it.

   Bristol pair  :P

I love the comment...Swindon be very afraid :)

Whether or not they do beat us thats confidence for you!

Rotherham had 14 chances to Forest Greens 5.

this had better not be moved for telly  :x

i like the last post:

100 users at last!

:Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

i know they're closer Reg, but we don't have much (if any) history with them.

Incidentally i used to drink in a pub in Birmingham called the Bristol Pear.

mo money??

there's more than that on Manchester Road.

So it's Forest Green after beating Rotherham 3-0, and Leeds are out after losing to Hereford.

Wonder how many they will bring down here? They get crowds of around 1,500 or so, but I don't think anyone of them will want to miss the trip.

Hope Sturrock takes the tie seriously.

I see the club have already announced ticket prices :

mo problems

  I'm sure he'll take it seriously, this though has upset written all over it.

bless em, they're spunking all over the place about beating......mighty rotherham

huh?? please expand  :?

It's a song.

ok, so I knew that  :oops: but thought I was missing somethin  :?  :soapy tit wank:

That's a great result for them!

In the context of non league no marks, i suppose it is

They are celebrating on that thread like they beat chelsea though!

 Damn right.....could  you see us going to Rotherham on a wet Tuesday in Nov and winning 3-0?

  The last similar happy event, (well 3-1 ) was Alan Mayes's debut hat trick in Jan 79.

we aint gonna be on the box as harrogate railway are playing mansfield on the sunday(bbc) and swansea are playing some other clowns on the friday night so expect that to be the sky live game

i'm fairly sure those prices were announced when the second round draw was made

Hmm this could be interesting for us. I'm confident we'll win though.

Might be worth a trip back for this one, I'll decide nearer the time!

you know you want to reevesy.

To go back for the day would be less than a tenner on the train so it sure is tempting! Will decide next week I think though!

I might come back for this one too. Not only could it be alright last season they had that policy of first come first serve from previous Cup games for R3 of the Cup; I don't want to miss out if we get some top team.
