Chesham beat BR at the Mem last year IIRC.

[quote="32mile_cul-de-sac"]nobody will be moaning if we get through to round three and an away trip to Old Trafford!!! all to play for in my eyes.

Speak for yourself. I would have to wipe my feet on the way out of Old Trafford!!!!!

We aren't all rabid Man U Shited in Barrow.

Of course I bet you say it was from a money side of things why you posted.

Here's to trying first of all to beat Taunton.

Up the Bluebirds.

We prevail though all this & get Arsenal away in R3 You heard it here 1st..

If only it had been at home. We'd have had a real chance of TV coverage and more chance of an upset

If we beat Taunton the only disappointment about the draw is that we are playing away..

Noooooo. That is played the day after the club's Christmas party and I wanted to be at home v Southport on my birthday!!!!!!
I might be on the terrace at the HSE on the 15th and to hell with the FA Cup. The Taunton One. .

Thanks for the link - doesn't look too impressive - especially for the away fans. It's put a bit of a 'dampener' (pardon the pun) on it for me.

Taunton will be up for this a week on Tuesday - a derby with another West Country team! (maybe).
I still think our class will be too much for them on our own turf, mind.

I'd rather visit Bristol (hopefully) than Crawley.

Lets think POSITIVE about this!

1) Bristol's a nice city to visit.
2)Macclesfield beat Walsall - on their own turf - who are in the same league as Bristol Rovers (both teams having lost on 4 occasions this season. And that will send a few shivers down Bristol way...
3)The Media Exposure we'll receive if we knock The Gas Heads out will be good for the club (as well as the money).
4) Bristol's nearer than Taunton!
5) If the club introduce a fair ticketing policy - our traveling support + season tickets holders + regular home game fans will be first in line for tickets to Old Trafford/Anfield/Goodison/St. James's Park...in the next round...

Any NEGATIVES?

YES! Admission Price: 18.00 - if purchased in advance - 20 notes on the day!


Away supporters are mostly housed in an open terrace on one side of the East (Dribuild) Stand. This area is open to the elements so you might get wet if it rains. The open terrace makes it difficult for away fans to really generate some noise.

And this is where we could be standing! Don't forget your thermals and anoraks...
Nice, eh?

Crawley Town/Bristol Rovers v Taunton Town/Barrow in the FA Cup 2nd Round has been moved to Sun 4th Dec for BBC Final Score coverage, 2pm KO

Potential cash into the club is fantastic here if we keep chugging along, possible 18 k for winning Tuesday and now another potential 12.5 k for highlights again and a few tough away league games in the league to prepare

I maybe live in Bristol granted so Rovers away will be great for me ( if both clubs win the replay ),but if Barrow have plans to play in the football league surely Rovers away is a good test flying high in League 1 its the FA Cup and don't forget Rovers have a habit of losing to non league teams in the Cup all the pressure will be on them,oh and theres loads of pubs near the Rovers ground as well,it will be a great day

How far is the stadium from Bristol Harbour?

Is there any significance to this kick off time or is this just the BBC website being weird?

Probably trying not to clash with any televised premier league fixtures
