Don't think there is much cause for complaint is there? Just getting to the third round is a rarity for us and the prize money is way more this season than it has ever been. We are already past the £100,000 mark with two wins and some TV money, plus gate receipts to add in as well. We should get north of £200,000 i would have thought, even if we go no further than the third round. Very welcome income that we didn't budget for, and a tie against a Prem side, which doesn't happen very often for us. Yeah, there are more glamorous clubs we could have drawn, but there are far worse ties we could have got.
I see Lincoln keep getting the luck of the draw. Spawny feckers.
Not too bad a draw now comes the noise over the tickets thats the only down side instead of focusing on the positive of a great draw its everyone getting selfish over they might not get a ticket. If you want one you will get one , its a good draw for you lets hope they play weakened teams thats what helped us in our cup runs teams kept repeating the error till Arsenal.

You should get close to 6000 allocation if my sums are correct. Another big pay day for the Imps. You'll soon be the Man City of League 2.

Yeah I think Tamworth got 5,900 a few years ago. I think both teams got decent draws - Could have been a lot worse.

Some nice input from our friend Scotimp:
“Apparently Grimsby fans are delighted with their draw. That may be due to a few teeny misunderstandings, though. Some are drooling at the prospect of a 26,000 full house at Selhurst Park, which will make them £200,000 in a share of the gate receipts. Others are just drooling, but that is more to do with upbringing than anything else.
Should we explain to them that the last third round FA Cup tie at Selhurst was watched by just 7,149 (v Bolton in January 2017)? Or that their fourth round tie against Manchester City a few weeks later only attracted 13,979? On that basis, the arrival of mighty Grimsby in town will really bring them out.
Some of them even believe that one of the worst teams in the Football League has a chance of getting a result there. They are right about that - an 8-0 thrashing is a result of a kind. Should be fun for them.”
Mere hours after winning one of the best draws of the round, he chose to write that. Not really sure what we’re supposed to say?
A lincolnite I know thinks he knows ScotImp. Tragically he's not a spotty, spiteful 16 year old but a boastful man-child who is at least in his mid-fifties. What a cesspool the Lincoln Vital forum is.

I could kind of understand his obsessive warbling if he was airing it on a forum with both Town and Lincoln fans. Doing it on the Lincoln forum is just a bit cowardly though. My favourite part of that thread was him posting this without a hint of irony shortly before dismissing our chances at Palace:
"From that Everton forum:
"Lincoln City at home is an absolute gimme"
That's what Ipswich thought. That's what Burnley thought."

Couldn't care less what Lincoln think. Never have, never will.
Someone else has made the point that we were playing (and losing!) against Northern Premier League teams about 6-7 years ago.
Now we're away at Crystal Palace.
I'll take that.

John Tondeur tweets saying that Town fans should wait on booking travel in case it gets moves to the Sunday. Good advice or more to it?

Apologies if it's already been mentioned, but there are engineering works on the ECML that weekend. So bear that in mind too.
