Spurs away. Had good cup trips to the capital in the past and 7 or 8,000 Gasheads could make quite a noise at their stadium.  |

Why don't they just leave the FA Cup draws at a set time, the old Monday evening slot was perfect. 1-05pm on a Monday Radio 2 after the news, (tho 5 Live nowadays) if you wanna go back and “do it properly” 👍 |

Our owners seem willing to spend big on a striker but a draw like this would enable them to do so without putting their hands in their own pockets - amazing the simple good fortune that having your number plucked from a velvet bag can have on a lower division club !! |

It’s been quite a while since we had a plumb away draw…. Long overdue! Maidstone away 🙄 |

If we get a fantastic draw, I hope the club really promote half year season tickets.
This should mean extra revenue and hopefully a bumper attendance for the Cheltenham match.
Big potential cup game, new manager, new stand, the club really should be looking to maximise the feel good factors that these things can bring.

It will be Peterborough away. Not even sure if they’re still in the competition … but it will be Peterborough away.

If we were drawn away we'd have nothing to lose as most would expect us to get beat. Get a cheeky 1-1 draw, Big Chris Martin sticking one in at the East end in injury time and then back to ours for a juicy televised replay. |
