Just watching the highlights now and only just realised how many non league teams have gone through to round 2! I wonder what the record number is?


14, set all the way back in 1975. With Barnet v Chelmsford having gone to a replay we’re guaranteed at least 10 this season, but it’s unlikely that record will be matched or broken.

Non league would be good but not Alvechurch.  Would like them to have another scalp at least.  They looked good on the highlights and they had a fair few fans.

Wow, thanks for that. It's brilliant and unless they're playing town. I hope they progress further.

I want the easiest team still in it so we have a chance at an away Premier League team for:

1. Potential TV money
2. 50% of the gate

Somewhere in London and the SE away, for purely selfish reasons. Win that and then Tottenham/Arsenal away is what we're after.

In case you didn't know the draw is at 7pm live on BBC2. We are number 11 (which sounds quite sexy). Sheff Wed are no 17. Barnsley no 2. My memory won't stretch to more than 3 numbers so those are the ones I will be looking for.

1. Forest Green Rovers
2. Barnsley
3. Boreham Wood
4. Curzon Ashton or Cambridge United
5. Dagenham & Redbridge
6. Accrington Stanley
7. Solihull Moors or Hartlepool United
8. AFC Fylde or Gillingham
9. Peterborough United or Salford City
10. Farnborough
11. Grimsby Town
12. Milton Keynes Dons
13. Ebbsfleet United
14. Carlisle United AFC
15. Bracknell Town or Ipswich Town
16. Chippenham Town
17. Sheffield Wednesday
18. Portsmouth
19. Shrewsbury Town
20. Buxton
21. Charlton Athletic
22. Weymouth or AFC Wimbledon
23. Newport County AFC
24. Stockport County
25. King’s Lynn Town
26. Stevenage
27. Fleetwood Town
28. Burton Albion
29. Harrogate Town
30. Exeter City
31. Torquay United or Derby County
32. Bristol Rovers
33. Walsall
34. Wrexham AFC
35. Crewe Alexandra
36. Barnet or Chelmsford City
37. Woking or Oxford United
38. Chesterfield
39. Alvechurch
40. Mansfield Town

We need to be careful what we wish for.  Sometimes we take our foot off the gas against teams that we should beat.  

We have lost to Lower-league teams.  Even at home to part-time Salisbury in an FAC replay (a team a division lower than us).  We were actually ahead in extra-time.  We still lost before penalties.

We took the lead early on against a very poor Hartlepool.  The bottom team.  Still lost.

Against the clear top team in Div 1 - we won easily.  They might be concentrating on promotion and played a weakened team.  But we played excellent football and scored very good goals.  Plymouth would not want to have been humiliated by a lower-Division team.

We play better and get good results against higher-ranked teams in one-off games.  Look at the 3 playoff games last season, (Even if some people disagree with this, we will not be drawn against a team ranked as high as Plymouth).
