Mansfield v Wrexham.

New media obsession with Wrexham at least means Hereford don't get a mention any more.

Very good point is that, Jim.

Remember the days when we’d be creaming ourselves about getting a L1 side away in the cup. Shows how much we've progressed I suppose.

Just heard on RC that it'll probably be a lunchtime kick-off due to Northampton Rugby having a game on the same day.

In truth the romance of the FA Cup for a L1/2 side starts at the 3rd round and always did. The only way we would ever have seen a first round trip to Northampton as much more than a probable waste of money would have been back in the Non league days when a trip to Northampton would have been seen as nirvana by comparison with a wet Saturday afternoon in Eastleigh or Dover or Gateshead.

That media obsession won't last long during the FA Cup. They'll be dumped out at Mansfield

with the FA cup game drawing closer, i have looked at the Televised games for that weekend.
Is it still possible that our game could be on TV ?
we are the only early FA Cup game on saturday the 3rd being played before 3pm.
Bromley v Blackpool (17-45pm) and Mansfield v Wrexham (19-45pm) being the evening TV games.
Sunday has 3 games televised at 12-15, 14-15 and 17-30.
Why not have 3 games televised on the saturday ?
