No to Chester!!!

Someone really shit for the next 4 rounds, then a money spinner away in round 3!!!!

Kendal away will do fine for me.

I don't know what their ground capacity is but I'm pretty sure it'd be close to full if we got them, & an afternoon around the pubs of Kendal town centre.
We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.

Meh. Not the best draw but not the worst either...

Not a bad tie but most importantly, we are in it so lets just get behind them and see how far the journey takes us?

Not a great money earner in terms of gate receipts, so nothing less than a win will do and bank a much needed £12.5k. :scarf:

Yeah, shame. We would have been raking it in if we played Didcot Town away.

Ahh, thanks.

Tamworth at home, hmm bit of a neither here or there draw really, winnable but I can't see it creating too much interest in the town. As someone else mentioned the money will be really important now with the gate probably being a lowish one.

Winnable. Much rather have Tamworth at home than Wrexham away. Hoping for a 1,000 plus gate. A win and a good home draw will at least draw up a bit of interest, which is what we need when we're struggling.

All squids are damp due to the fact that they live in the sea. :D

Somewhat unusual draw in that there are eight ties between Conference Premier clubs. I imagine the probability of this is quite low - I can't be bothered to dig out my A level statistics notes to calculate it exactly.
