Mansfield would make a nice change. Hopefully we could take them to a replay as well.

Boston aways a good day out  


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

Weirdly, it’s difficult to muster an opinion as to who I’d want. Last season we conspired to get virtually the worst conceivable draw on five consecutive occasions, and yet somehow managed to turn it into comfortably the most memorable and incredible FA cup campaign the club has had in living memory.

For all the talk of turgid football of late, much of it valid by the way, we haven’t half witnessed some incredible twists and turns of fate this past 18 months or so.

Funny old game, innit.

Can’t be any worse than our first round draw last year, or indeed the second, third, and fourth too.

Quoted from RonMariner

The QF draw was about the worst possible in terms of opposition and cash receipts as well. Blackburn at home would have been the most winnable, the Mancs away for cash. The others similar for cash but definitely more winnable.
