Not tempting fate or anything. But someone is bound to ask. 3rd round draw 12.55 on Sunday, ITV. After the Eastleigh game.

Was wondering given the weather around the country if some of the televised cup games are off,would think Alfreton especially would be doubtful if the television companies would have thought about televising Barrows game against Maidstone as should be guaranteed to play on 4G pitch as a back up,

No pitch inspection at Alfreton

If 3rd in L2, in the age of facebook, twitter, instagram, SkySportsNews showing the table every 5 minutes, hasn’t ‘woken them up’ then they are braindead in a coma.
