F.A. Cup 2020/21 Season

[greyerfox]

Dover knocked out so no repeat draw.....oh, hang on, knocked out by Yeovil !! Not again, please......

 

[Dave Smiths Love Child]

Thank God Scarborough not in the draw

 

[RobB11]

I think we’d lose against any national league team. Would be tight with a national north/south team but probably lose that. I can’t see us beating anyone. ?

 

[gazza]

We are ball number 42, let the 'fun' begin. Would love a win for some confidence, we need a win from somewhere right now!

 

[Floval Flyer]

Canvey or Concord, or perhaps Maldon & the Jam makers would be great!

Bet we get a tricky away tie with a L1 side like Doncaster or someone like that though!?

 

[SHRIMPERPETER]

****es me off seeing fans at these non league grounds today in the FA cup but we can't!!!

 

[Jonny_Stokes]

Can confirm that you do not want this tie.

 

[Floval Flyer]

Can confirm that you do not want this tie.

You’re probably right, based on their performances against Orient and Newport in last seasons FA cup they’d be a difficult opponent.

 

[GBJ]

Would much rather play a league 1 team, just to take a lot of pressure off the team.
Beaten by a non league team will do no good at all to their confidence

Agreed.... although you just know we’re going to get drawn against a minnow, which will of course be a televised game and we’ll face another humiliation akin to the Dover game.

£80k for a live TV game will keep Ron happy.

Totally agree with this. Away to Ipswich, Sunderland or Portsmouth where there would be no expectations of us getting a result. This assumes we will still be in business of course.

 

[damien]

Canvey away, take over the place in preparation for Athletico Southend AFC Phoenix Wanderers 2026 promotion season

 

[Evening Echo]

CONCORD Rangers, Canvey Island and Southend United will all be in the draw for Monday night's FA Cup draw.

The way things are currently, what price a tie away at the likes of Darlington or Hartlepool or Skelmersdale when the draw is made this evening?

 

[Shrimper]

No replays this year

 

[BluePartridge]

We're gonna beat at least 2 prem sides on our way to the quarters this year.

 

[in the know]

Agreed.... although you just know we’re going to get drawn against a minnow, which will of course be a televised game and we’ll face another humiliation akin to the Dover game.

OMG- hide the players tracksuits!!

A previous thread suggested there were up to 600 at local non-league games, and only pockets of social distancing.
Who would go to a shopping centre where you were often very close to the same number?
It's bizarre.

That’s right I’ve been to bishops stortford and they have a 600 limit including tonight’s game but no away fans allowed, it’s not easy to distance away from other fans either.

61, 62 or 69 ball hopefully
