Curzon is alright.. They've got a massive IKEA in Ashton.

Given that they beat us back in the day, I'd rather stay at home and go to IKEA...

Be interesting to see what happens to the Haringey v Yeovil tie. Hopefully Yeovil don't get kicked out would be a dangerous precedent. Should be a replay imo.

Sadly, local ties in the first round are largely a thing of the past since they did away with regionalisation.
I think we have played teams from the North West 10 times out of the last 15!
Can we start a campaign to bring it back?

When did they do away with regionalisation?

Simpo · Oct 20, 2019

When have they ever had regionalisation in the FA Cup proper? Must have been years and years.

In fact, I just looked it up, and from the look of the first round draws, it looks like 1998.

Yes, 1998/9 season.

I'd like to go to a new ground, not too far away, so Poole Town away please.

Though we will probably get Rochdale.

Yeah, you guys normally have to visit Bury in this every year. So it'll be us, Bolton or "the bye"...

"The qualifying rounds are regionalised to reduce the travel costs for smaller non-league sides. The first and second proper rounds were also previously split into Northern and Southern sections, but this practice was ended after the 1997–98 competition."
I never realised that...every day is a school day.

AdamStag · Oct 20, 2019

Bet you we end up playing at some non-league style ground like Grimsby

northstandexile · Oct 20, 2019

I always thought the regionalisation of 1st round was always unfair for northern clubs.

we always seem to get paired with league clubs whereas the southern clubs always seemed to get ties with tin pot non league sides as most of the southern teams were non league.

Sometimes you read a post and you think ''that's definitely a response to a 1 point for answer, 3 points for showing your working question''.

Chorley at home, take that all day, perfect if it was away.

valefan16 · Oct 21, 2019

MK away absolutely toss

OhGodGlovePuppet · Oct 21, 2019

Exeter at home.

Hard to say with a completely straight face after the weekend, but that's a dreadful draw.

The_Boss · Oct 21, 2019

Kingstonian at home, could have been much much worse.

Si Robin · Oct 21, 2019

Swindon at home - I'll take the result from the last time we played them in the cup.

In all seriousness - I hope the club use their noggin and reduce prices for this match. Last time they kept prices at full standard and it impacted the attendance massively.

Dan_Macclad · Oct 21, 2019

I'll take that

I think mk Don's have been given a bye aswell as chircester

JJ1532 · Oct 21, 2019

Accrington away. Only interesting aspect is its a good test for the players against higher league opposition and there is no shame in going out, but aside from that, it's yet another abysmal draw with zero interest from the fans outside the die hards.

It’s a winnable one as they are bottom four in L1 but assuming we do go out we will make zero from it. No decent following as it’s a soulless away day. About as bad as we could of got.

Crewelad87 · Oct 21, 2019

Accrington away, pretty dull draw. But it could have been worst and it's winnable.

I dont think any away game is winnable at the moment. I'd rather us have drawn Dover or gateshead away even though there long trips I'd rather go there than milton Keynes. At least mk Don's get reasonable crowds about 10k so be around 5k for a cup game whereas crewe at accrington will be a less than 2k crowd so if you lose you make nothing.

Nah it’s not dreadful, you’d take a draw at home to any side in our league anyway, even with our home record. Definitely winnable which is all you can ask for. Now up to us to take the opportunity.

It’s dire interest wise but they are struggling and if we can get them back to VP for instance then it’s progress-able.

I wanted to be the last out! Was getting close!

They make Sutton seem like a big club. Since you’re ‘keeper used to play for us (albeit on loan) he may get a bit of abuse

Dan_Macclad · Oct 21, 2019

They been talking to John askey?!

Bottega Don · Oct 21, 2019

Crawley away, absolutely awful.

Our history of drawing a team in the same league as us continues, happened every time since 14/15.

I guess you’ve got the excitement of being one of only two teams who didn’t draw a football club this round.

Enjoyed seeing Maldon & Tiptree excited about a trip to little old us. Should be a laugh until they beat us.
