Awful tie. High chance we'll get knocked out, and no away trip to a decent league one / championship ground.

Awful draw? Blimey, 2 years ago we were playing Coalville et al, and Derby at home is an awful draw!

Great draw. Chance to get a big crowd inside BP early in the season, and a reasonable chance of beating a high level team who will likely bring some good numbers.

Decent tie. A home game against one of the biggest clubs in the competition (at this stage), and one who'll bring a lot of fans. An awful tie would've been Fleetwood away.

Having a decent chance of going through is scuppered by the decision to seed it.

Also, echoes of Slade's last season here. Hopefully Glen Downey can inspire us to a clean sheet again.

Fleetwood away would be much better. At least we'd have got a trip to Blackpool out of it. Derby at home is incredibly uninspiring and just shouts 'unceremonious first round defeat in front of 3,800 spectators'. I can't get excited about that.

Beats unceremonious first round defeat in front of 1800 spectators.

Near Blackpool.
