Great Lincoln fourth goal. Young player running through just the goalkeeper to beat to get his first ever goal and twat of a defender pushes him in the back. He falls over, kicks the ball against the goalkeeper's leg and it bounces back against the defender and so into the goal so the twat has an own goal against his name

Walsall away, fuck yeah!

After some of the excitement of the first round it is a deflatingly boring draw for the second. The gallant lowly non-leaguers (Harborough and Gainsborough Trinity) have got guff difficult away ties. That Burton v Tamworth is probably tie of the round tells you how uninspiring the rest of the draw is. A pity.

Burton V Tamworth could be an interesting tie.

Probably the only decent tie. Definitely tie of the round.

I imagine there is form between the two sets of supporters.

For some reason when I was a teenager I walked into Burton, possibly having hitched. All I remember are the breweries. You'd hope people would want to be friendly to them.

Burton and Tamworth....think not. All the smallers breweries have been merged in to one large brewery.

yes this was the late 60s that I'd have gone there.

Rooting for Gainsborough Trinity, even though Harrogate are above them. They're the bottom ranked team at the moment.

The FA banning replays got me close to losing the 'magic of the Cup', but no, I'm just about still in.

Agreed. But. I can't abide penalty shoot outs. It is a team game and pens is all about 2 players, the taker and the keeper.
