FA Cup 2022/23

Our game has been moved to 2pm on the Sunday. Still can’t get my head round Wrexham v Oldham being picked for tv but there you go. I’d rather watch Bolton v Barnsley.

It’s the Hollywood appeal. They are the new Salford. At least they have a fan vase however.

Our game vs South Shields away is on TV and an early kick off. Supporters' coach departs in the middle of the night.

Wrexham the new Salford? They used to always be on despite needing the money less that other NL sides. Coalville would have been better.

Somewhere to put the daffodils I suppose.

Its shit to have an all non-league game but thanks to their owners Wrexham have worldwide publicity and therefore a far bigger audience for them to wank over.

I'm assuming our game against Vale will get moved to either the Friday night or the Sunday, due to Stoke being at home at 3pm on the Saturday

Most likely Friday as we have a fireworks display on the Sunday (unless it kicks off really early I guess).

In the past couple of years or so we’ve played the same time as Stoke (even as recently as Tuesday night) but Birmingham I think they have is a higher risk fixture so assume that may play a part.

 

[Luke Imp]

Ours at Chippenham has remained on a Saturday, which is good as we have a game on Tuesday at Bristol City in the Carabao Cup.

 

[denzel ecfc]

Any news on the kick off time yet, Vale?

 

[valefan16]

Any news on the kick off time yet, Vale?

Nothing at all as yet, I wonder if they are negotiating to try and get the Saturday with the police hence the delay.

 

[Buxton Vale]

Our game with Exeter now confirmed for Saturday 3.00 pm kick off

 

[kieran_vale]

Surprised they’ve allowed that but it’s a welcome decision for both clubs you’d say.

 

[Andy Proctor]

Neither side will want a replay which means it will go to a replay

Yeah would rather lose than a replay to be honest with you! It’ll just be a ball ache ahead of the Charlton game otherwise.

 

[HutchECFC]

Would rather it had been the Friday to be honest, wouldhave then done a Stoke on Trent double, ticking off the 365 in my 92

I'd rather get a hand job off Edward Scissorhands than willingly go and watch that shite, and sitting in the home end too.

 

[denzel ecfc]

I'll take a replay!

Oh I don’t know. As they keep losing I expect you might enjoy it. Saturday would have been entertaining.

 

[Dan Phillips]

Yes, from the outside looking in. Being in the away end would be fun. Done it four times with four different clubs and Vale were the only one to win there.

Yeah the issue is Stoke got on poor runs we all chuckle, their fans melt down but then when it looks real bleak they go and win a few get all excited before repeat… would love it if they came down!

 

[Greenacres]

I'm really hoping that Pompey are on the end of a dicking at Hereford on Friday evening...should help draw attention away from us when we are schooled by South Shields on Saturday.

Burchnill is the worst Manager in league football.

If FGR win that will be the shock!

Chippenham have been able to postpone their midweek games ahead of next weekends game.

You getting nervous Luke?

Always wary of lower sides in the FA Cup!

I don't know too much about them really, it looks like they're having a similar season to us in the NLS i.e. not scoring or conceding many.

 

[Boletus Edulis]

I must be mad, yesterday got our tickets for the 700 mile round trip to Cleethorpes. The fish and chips better be as good as advertised

 

[Stroud]

Checking FGR results one must go back to Season 2009-10 when club last reached 3rd round (1-2 away loss to Notts Co).
Since then they've been knocked out of competition 8 times on or b4 Round 1.
Two seasons ago South Shields were knocked out in Round 1 by our Gloucestershire neighbours, Cheltenham, so they will be more than ready to revenge themselves against another team from Glos.
Nevertheless I'd love history to repeat itself - Cheltenham beat South Shields in Round 1 and eventually met Man City in Round 4 where they did themselves proud by leading for large part of the match.
But FGR have a poor record against lower league teams especially on live TV: - last season FGR lost to St Albans City in front of the cameras.
