BBC already have Buxton v Morecambe as their headline on the website.killerandflash said:Our game still stands out
Buxton vs Morecambe is in some ways the tie of the round in terms of the gap, but Morecambe are L1 minnows, up for the first time. The Buxton players will be excited to play a L1 side, but not to play Morecambe, if that makes sense.
By contrast we are a "fallen giant" L1 side, former winners and ex PL. We even have the player who's goal beat Man City!
Am pretty sure they did the same for Sudbury vs Colchester so that'll be their pick of the bunch.0 -
Good news = Our will surely be on TV.
Bad news = This usually means a silly KO time0 -

Already been to Gateshead, so wanting Altrincham.
Gateshead's stadium of being so open to the wind and rain with a racetrack around it, zero atmosphere just doesn't appeal to me.

Jim Davidson gets bloody everywhere!!16 -
So who else did a disappointed oooh thinking we were being called with Leyton Orient away, and then a relieved oooh when you thought we were getting Rotherham away?13

Spookily J Davidson is not the only similarity between the clubs, Altrincham’s nickname is the Robins and their manager is Phil Parkinson (not our former manager though who’s at Wrexham) 😯.3

More gutted the Crewe game will be probably be called off.1

Are you sure they're not thinking of Josh Davidson as sometimes called on here?Bedsaddick said:Jim Davidson gets bloody everywhere!!

Win this and just think, it could be Huddersfield waiting in the third round....13

Superb tie, just what the cup is about.
Would prefer Altrincham as that Gateshead stadium looks shite for football.0 -
Pahahahahahaha. That is just typical. Until a year ago I lived 2 minutes' walk from ALtrincham's ground7

Jesus, Gateshead have a reasonably good sized ground so I’d imagine a fair few tickets would be on offer eg 1,500-2,500 if they make it0

Not a knock against our support, but we would never sell that many.mattinfinland said:Jesus, Gateshead have a reasonably good sized ground so I’d imagine a fair few tickets would be on offer eg 1,500-2,500 if they make it4 -
Altrincham have a capacity of 6000, Gateshead nearly 12000. The Gateshead away stand sounds better, but the ground is soulless.

Let's win and get the winner of Boreham Wood & St Albans in the 3rd round please.5

Well based on the first round their live tv slots are:
Friday 7.45pm
Saturday 5.15pm
Sunday 12.15, 3 and 5.15pm
Monday 7.45pm
Given the distance only the saturday and the 2 later sunday ones are that appealing.
Sunday 12.15 in that wide open Gateshead stadium, freezing cold with at least 50% of our support nursing hangovers from a night out in Newcastle would be soul destroying.4 -
TV games for the first round were picked on the Thursday following the draw so will probably be a couple of days before we find out if we are one of the “lucky” ones.0

As usual, 6-4, 4-6, 6-4 and they won’t be playing tennis. (You need to be of a certain age for that one)KingKinsella said:Any thoughts on playing Plymouth Argyle 3 times in a month? 2x in league and if they beat SheffWeds and we draw them0 -
Been to both of these with Dartford. Gateshead looked impressive but a lack of atmousphere poir playing surface and strong wind made it a dull day. Altrincham was very 'old school' non league. We won' t have a big share of tickets there and we'll need some character. Be nice if the FA would let us stream this one.0

Jacko will be delighted. His view before the draw.....“A home tie would be what we’re looking for,” said Charlton caretaker manager Jackson. “At this stage I haven’t got a preference who we play. In an ideal scenario we don’t travel.“We have got some travelling ones where we go to Morecambe and Shrewsbury [on successive weekends]. We want to avoid any unnecessary travel, if we can.”4
