Just pondering our traditional magnificent Cup runs in recent years/decades.
I see that the following non-league teams are still in the competition:
Solihull Moors Dagenham & Redbridge Brackley Town Barrow Marine Havant & Waterlooville Shrewsbury Town Boreham Wood King's Lynn Town Canvey Island Chorley Stockport County Darlington Barnet Yeovil Town
There's a good chance a few of those will make it through to the Third Round.
Any favourites as to who's going to subject us to our ritual humiliation in the first week of 2021?
I quite fancy Kings Lynn at home...

I'm scared Stockport County (My Family team cause our ancestors are from Stockport) will draw us at Edgeley Park and win 3-0.

Noticed that Oxford City who beat Northampton last night play in Blue & White Hoops and have 2 QPR loanees although 1 - Joe Gubbins - was not playing.

I'm fairly sure that Gubbins was only on a month's loan & that has finished.
I would also think that the chances of Rangers agreeing to him becoming cup tied were close to zero.

Gutted that one of my local teams I support lost on Penalties, B Stortford going out. But so pleased for my friend Ian Culverhouse, doing a great job at Kings Lynn. but a tough fixture away at Portsmouth.

Firstly, I bloody love the FA cup, the oldest cup game in the world and one I would love us to win one day. I follow it throughout the season and even go to watch Leatherhead or Dorking play (my local teams) in the early rounds.
Personally I don't want Solihull Motors don't know why I just like the idea of losing to a deal of second hand car dealers, not Yeovil either as I have customers from that area and won't hear the last of it. Preferably a home draw or whoever is closet to home, Barnet?

It's just a shame that non-league sides who get their dream ties against league opposition won't get a share of the gate money.

Do they get a share of any TV revenue?
