FA Cup 2nd Round

Barnsley at home....Boring ? what do people want from Round 2
 
We are going to have to play a team like Barnsley sooner or later if we are going to win the FA Cup.

LOL :Smile:

I was hoping Billericay were going to draw Sunderland, who were still in when Billericay came out of the goldfish bowl!
 
When the last time we had an exciting draw in the FA Cup?

These early rounds we either get a team we are in the same league with or a dull tie against a team lower than us.
 
I'll probably have more of a view on round 2 if we are still in it after the replay.
 
Chapman, trying to get a little heat under the draw by highlighting Sutton or Slough v. Gillingham or Hartlepool! :Tumbleweed:
 
Think fair few fans would have liked a day out at a non league club new ground etc

We have had a few days out in recent years, Yeovil, Millwall and Scunthorpe.....I didn't enjoy any of them.
 
I prefer playing sides we don't play in the same division as in these Cups as it gets a bit stale seeing the same team 3/4 times a season.
 
SOUTHEND United will host Barnsley in the second round of the FA Cup if they win their first round replay against Crawley Town next Tuesday.

Yes, boring.Funnily enough people would rather avoid one of the best teams in the draw that we lost to just last week. A non league team away would have been nice, can’t recall us getting one since Telford around 10 years ago.
 
In some ways it's better we play a tough nut that dispels any complacency rather than get embarrassed by the likes of Maidstone.
