F.A. Cup 2016/2017

[geoffmundo]

Would prefer small local non league outfit, Colchester away anyone....?

 

[Somerset Ex-TTB]

Are people forgetting our away form? Even against a non-league side we will play 1 up front looking for a 0-0 draw, then go a goal down from a corner, before losing 4-0

 

[RobM]

Eastbourne away.
Braintree home.

 

[Harry Bullocks]

Anywhere south of Brum, and east of Brizzle will suit me ...home or away :happy:

 

[MK Shrimper]

Anywhere south of Brum, and east of Brizzle will suit me ...home or away :happy:

:unsure: Surely if it's a home draw it could be Carslile or Exeter?

 

[slapheadsteve]

Dagenham away so we can get tonk them after they knocked us out the cup a few days ago

 

[Another Surrey Shrimper]

Sutton United away - and you can all pop into mine for a cup of tea

Smartarse ..:winking:

Gone are the days when you would get a lower leage club , and put 7-10 goals past them .

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

Gone are the days when you would get a lower leage club , and put 7-10 goals past them .

We've barely scored more than that all season!

 

[RobM]

We've barely scored more than that all season!

Brentwood 10-1
Kings Lynn 9-0
Weymouth 7-0

That's all I can recall - Barnet 9-2 was about 100 years ago.

 

[Mick]

Westfields are still in it.

I hope they play at the Olympic Stadium!

Sadly not. It's a couple of hundred yards from Edgar Street, Hereford's ground.

 

[Rattus Norvegicus]

Sadly not. It's a couple of hundred yards from Edgar Street, Hereford's ground.

Last time I was there (Edgar Street) the announcer called the ground a "stadium" - oh how I laughed.

Blair Sturrock and Corr up front on that day if I remember.

Their ground must be one of the best in the Country (at their level). Mind you, they do play at the same level as Bowers & Pitsea and Brightlingsea Regent !

 

[AndyT]

I went to an FA Cup 1st Round game at Edgar Street in 1981-82.

We lost 3-1 and a load of Villa fans turned up and threatened us.

Miserable day all round, apart from the pub selling extra strong cider! :thumbsup:

 

[Maldon Shrimper]

Forest Green away will do me very nicely

 

[ozzie]

Gone are the days when you would get a lower leage club , and put 7-10 goals past them .

Used to love getting non-league teams in the cup Os..7-0,9-0,10-1..
Loved going to the away games as well..twice AP Leamington:blush: Boreham Wood at home:blush:
But some good ones as well like Ilford.
The CUP was special those days

 

[Skyblue]

Brentwood 10-1
Kings Lynn 9-0
Weymouth 7-0

That's all I can recall - Barnet 9-2 was about 100 years ago.

Proud to say I saw all three, not the barnet though. One name comes to mind....the brilliant Billy Best .

 

[Rattus Norvegicus]

For all those wanting an away day against non-league opposition can I just type "quack, quack, quack" ........... I still shudder when I hear duck noises.

And Forest Green says Maldon Shrimper - aren't they Stroud way and quite a good side? (Top of the conference) Not a push over at all.

 

[AndyT]

Funny thing about that game was that we got promoted that season.

Same in 1980-81 where we were undefeated at home in the league, but lost 1-0 at home to Hereford in the FA Cup when they were bottom of the football league.

Maybe we're just not a cup team!
