FA Cup 3rd Round Draw (Home to Rochdale)

Post by olbarrafancumbak » Mon Dec 05, 2016 8:59 am

Wasn't overly excited about the cup due to wanting the league title or promotion..

But 3rd round in the cup against a prem or championship team at home would be a good start to 2017

So, who do you want?

I wouldn't mind Bolton at home.. capacity crowd, localish club and a doable tie..

Leeds home or away.


If it's a big club at home, priority to anyone with a ticket from Gateshead Boxing Day,

Always a concern when you do most home games but potentially miss out due to a "big club"

Its obvious who the die hards are and deserve priority and I wouldn't begrudge that one bit.. I don't do away but I do do home so some secondary priority ticketing wouldn't go a miss ;-)

Northern Premier League/Championship side away - Leeds would be nice, or Newcastle to complete the North East hat-trick

Same again. A big northern Premier League or Championship team away. Leeds or Blackpool away would be good to. If Blackpool we'd have more supporters then the home team.
Or Sutton at home to have a good chance to progress to the 4th round.

I miss the 3rd Round so want Sutton or the winners of Halifax/Eastleigh at home so we have a good chance of getting through to the 4th Round.

That and £67,000 prize money would do nicely John.
