FA Trophy 2016/17

[Luke Imp]

Potentially away at Gateshead. Great.

 

[Sparrow]

Ah Jordan Murphy in the 87th minute.Not many good memories from last season but that was one of them. Honestly hope you win. Would like to see how our team fairs against a Conference team.

Our recent record at yours isn't great, haven't won there in four attempts since we returned following promotion. Would have liked an away tie at a club we haven't been to. Could have been a worse draw though.

 

[Bendubz]

Love that draw, a Conny North side awaiting us if we get through tomorrow, and with SIX other ties only containing sides in the relegation battle or lower league, progress to the QF is very possible. From there anything can happen.

 

[Aberstone]

Southport away if we can get past Wingate in the replay tomorrow night. Northern away day which I wanted, so watch us lose now....

 

[Boz]

Unfamiliar with either of our possible opponents South Park or North Leigh. Shame it wasn't an away draw, as new ground to visit.

 

[Tranmerewhite]

What step are South Park / North Leigh in?

If they kill Kenny we'll riot.

Both are step four. South Park are 14th in the Isthmian Division One South. North Leigh are 8th in the Southern League South and West. (Same league as Hereford)

Great draw for sure for you. We are very poor away from home. Both sides struggle to keep them out though. Just make sure you dispose of Boring Wood. I dont want to have to go there.

What is an AFC Sudbury? Is this the reincarnation of the once world famous Sudbury FC but hit bad times and let their club die?

 

[Tranmerewhite]

If ever there was a game to worry about players getting injured... It'd still be against a Martin Allen team.

Looking forward to this and reminds me of our game against Braintree when we were top of League one not having the foggiest who we were playing and expecting a 17-0 win. Hopefully this game doesn't trigger another collapse that sees us drop 48 league positions.

Eastleigh beat North Leigh 5-0 (i think) in the FA Cup - just before we trounced Eastleigh 4-0

Potentially away at Gateshead. Great.

Play the kids against Shaw Lane/Nantwich and get out of the competition asap. I've love a trip to Wembley but this competition has the potential to ruin our season.

 

[Luke Imp]

Nantwich Town FC ‏@TheDabbers 58m58 minutes ago
Should Shaw Lane win their appeal, we will replay our fixture with them at the Weaver Stadium next Tuesday(20th).

Tranmere definitely going ahead then.

 

[Luke Imp]

I didn't even realise a replay was an option, but having looked at when our game can be played it's either the Tuesday between New Year (a Sunday game) and our FA Cup game or the Tuesday after our FA Cup game and before the 2nd Round.

The latter would probably be preferable.

 

[Davidimp]

Think Shaw Lane have a very good chance of winning the appeal from reading what has been said, granted this is the FA!

 

[Chris FGR]

We've been drawn away (as we usually are), to one of 2 plucky northern part timers, Witton or Chester. It will definitely add spice to their replay as a potential "cup final" is now on the line.

Got the replay at Truro to smash tomorrow night first of course.

I'm sure you'll ROMP to victory before we duly dispatch you CONVINCINGLY at some stage.

 

[East Bank Shot]

Braintree at home if we can win tonight. Winnable.

 

[Joe.]

Can't see us beating Woking but we definitely won't beat Kidderminster should we progress.

 

[Blue Lion]

AFC Sudbury away, this after Truro away this time last season. Why isn't this round regionalised ?

It was in 2014/15. Not sure why it went back National.

You're not there yet........

You were one of the teams I wanted to avoid. Why do you think you won't have a chance against us?

We're not really on form to be honest.

 

[JaredSUFC]

Worthing. 3G derby-tastic!

 

[Swedes]

Home to either Wealdstone, or something called a Wingate & Finchley. I'm assuming the latter are a club formed by a firm of solicitors, or were two southern teams who couldn't hack it on their own and merged together as is the trend down there. Either way I'll be disappointed if we don't get through this in what is a rare home tie for us.

Oi, Finchley are the one of a select breed of clubs with an architecturally recognised grandstand. AND it was opened by a future monarch too..

Oh yes, the first step on the famous 'Road to Sudbury'
At least we get another derby game out of it

 

[East Bank Shot]

Playing our replay tonight. Currently 1-1.

 

[Sparrow]

Aldershot down to 10 men - another one of their thugs sent off. Hilariously, from the resulting free-kick East Thurrock scored. 1-2. That in itself must be the most Aldershot thing ever.
