Very good draw. We really should beat either of those. Hopefully.

 R4E....we played Barnet back in Feb and lost.

  Hopefully it will be Barnet......Burton are a similar standard to FGR and we had enough problems with them.

Got a good chance to get through though; i thought we were never going to get drawn out.

So what? We were shite. The fact of the matter is they are an average League 2 team and we really should win against either of those teams.

I know we might not, but we should.

fuck me, we really are a bunch of miserable fuckers walking around with our own personal stfc rainclouds.

The next best thing to having a Premiership side was surely a home tie of some kind?

Even better that its against a lesser side that we WILL comfortably beat imo.

Personally, I thought it was a great draw for us. Want Town to go as far as they can and the best way of doing that is playing cack teams at home.

Im happy with the draw as well.

We could have had something shit like Port Vale Away!  My god do I never want to go back there.

I went to see Burton play Man U couple seasons back when they took them to replay at Old Trafford.  Burton fans were superb and they should bring a few here.  

I hope we don't make the mistake of under-estimating them.

Can't complain at that, if you can't have a big side away then one of the lower teams at home is the next best thing, like others have said a mediocre championship side away is the worst draw, poor crowd and a good chance of getting beaten.

I think it is one of the best draws we could have, home to lower league oppo, with a great chance of progressing.

Yes it could be a banana skin but then every game is really.

Its at home, and there's a decent chance of going through.  Pity about  the uncertainty of actually playing the tie.

I'd say probably is overstating it slightly...possibly is more like it

I was hoping for Norwich as the missus is from there - it was still a possibility with 4 balls to go :(
