BBC 2 7pm tonight. I know we never take it seriously but did enjoy our trip to Liverpool last season.

Remember the days when the draw was done on the Saturday.
I can remember in 1979 when they did the 3rd round draw on Match of the day and we drew Arsenal at home.
I excitedly phoned my mate about the draw straight afterwards only to be bollocked by his dad for calling late at night.
Traditionally on a Monday dinner time, another thing that’s fallen by the wayside.
Back in the days when no one thought it was a good idea to let everyone know what every team’s number was before a ball was picked out. That said, City were nearly always number ten, but I always enjoyed trying to figure who we’d been drawn against.Originally Posted by splott parker
Yes, huddling around a transistor radio... great stuff, but we ended up with Stoke away!
City drawn away to Margate and played at Dover was an obscure one I attended. Not quite so packed as the crowd of 55, 316 crowd at Ninian Park in 1969 and which was a hell of a crush.
I was disappointed when we drew Tiverton away but they conceded home advantage to us. I came up on one of their two fan coaches, put a Bluebird toffee on each seat before people boarded and looked forward to the craic. However, it was a very civil and twee experience as many of the passengers had brought flasks and a picnic to have on the coach.
If we are ‘rewarded’ with a home tie, the club will retain our excitement by announcing the 2 blocks that will be open and thus signal that they don’t intend to put up a fight and don’t expect us to attend anyway.
A Championship side at home, probably Wigan
I went to the Margate game at The Crabble, Dover. And after we did a booze cruise via the tunnel to load up with cheap drinks.
No surprises there then
I was living in SE London at the time so it wasn't suck a trek.
Still in the tedious build-down. Good of them to interview the bloke from Scritti Politti though.

Leeds. Bloody hell
Great draw ave em
Better than it could’ve been. Probably ~13,000 in attendance as Leeds would sell out I imagine.
7am Sunday KO

For once I am looking foward to an FA Cup tie.
Probably!7am Sunday KO
Hopefully 20,000 plus inc 3,300 away ?
Can’t see us getting for more a first round cup game than a league game.
Depends how the club prices it too.
It’s a big game , I’d be disappointed with sub 22,009
