F.A. Cup 2017/18 (Yeovil away)

[Thundersley Blue]

The way the season is going it has to be Truro away.

Concord Rangers 1-0 up at Woking! :thumbsup:

Heybridge Swifts winning, as well!

Heybridge won 4-2.

Replays for Concord, East Thurrock and Chelmsford, also between Daggers and Orient.

And Ebbsfleet!!

We had that amazing 4-1 win against Millwall when it poured with rain and the floodlights went out. Best Cup game we’ve had in years that was.

Not that many to choose from.

Do me, only live 35 mile away !

There's someone on SZ who lives in Devoran which is even nearer.:smile:

Very true!

We got to the 4th round in 2013/14, going out 0-2 to Hull.

Thanks I forgot about those.

Billericay at home! Bring it on. Brings back memories of the Canvey games. If we get Billericay away though, Tamplin's not going to do a Jeff King and switch venues! I can see our away day flakes losing too!

 

[Shrimper]

Would love any local side or Heybridge

Clubs are not allowed to switch venues in the FA cup since the controversial Farnborough v Arsenal game in 2003. I think in some circumstances a neutral venue may be considered but I'm not sure that has even happened since the new rules?

A.F.C. Telford are still in the cup.

They gave us a couple of good games a few years ago.

Just to clarify 'Kaymac's post, Concord/Woking are 71.

I do hope Oxford City get drawn against Oxford United! :cool:

 

[AndyT]

Just to round these up :-

Further question and without looking it up, in that season I mentioned, above (1977-78), we reached the third round, but who did we beat in the first two rounds and lose to in the third round?

That one, we beat Torquay United 2-1 away in the 1st Round. Who remembers that one?

Without giving too much away, I was surprised with two clubs in particular that we have apparently never played in the FA Cup.

Portsmouth, was the other one which surprised me. We already had Charlton as one of the two clubs.

 

[Massimo Giovanni]

I have a really bad feeling that we will be drawn away to Wigan, Donny or Rotherham.:sad:
