Only a few minutes off, but we will have to endure all usual BBC crap sucking up to Stevie G and Ian Right Right Wright before the proper stuff.
Far too much farting around, just get on with it.
HOME draw please. |  | | |  |

Barrow have got their best team together since they dropped out of the league - plus they've got world class subs |  |

Rather disappointing for both sides I would imagine. When teams at our level (and below)do get through to the 3rd round we all hope for a glamour tie.
With regards to live TV coverage - I would be very surprised to be one of them! If you were to rank all 32 ties in order of the likeliness of being picked for live TV coverage I really couldn't see us being any higher than around midway. Man U against anyone is always going to get picked and BT/BBC will be milking the return of Jaap Stam to OT. I would think that between them BT/BBC will probably show that game, 2 all PL ties (probably MCFC v WHUFC and EFC v LCFC) and then 2 PL teams up against lower league sides (CFC v NCFC and LFC v PAFC/NCFC). Let's see if they can surprise us by choosing something less obvious? (Like BT did when they chose our game against Stoke a couple of years ago).
That said - I'd be more than happy to avoid another traumatic TV appearance and having to explain to everyone I know that 'we are better than that - honestly!' (Again!) |
Stoke are still a PL team, though. |  |

May I politely remind the club that it's this type of game where tickets should first be offered to (full) season ticket holders. |  |

Doesn't bother me just think it's sad.
Like a poster side the other week to him just give it a rest |
Give what a rest exactly? |  |

On a positive note the tie will not provide the slightest distraction for the players during the busy festive period.
Not a great draw for a few teams to be fair. Accy will be disappointed with Luton at home and I've got a Macc supporting colleague who, if they get past Oxford, will not be feeling all cup-tastic about Rotherham away. | |

Id rather have a winnable game with a chance of getting through, than a "glamour" tie (like Odham ;) )and probably go out, all those whiners who wanted a big tie will undoubtedly feel let down. You want to get as far as you can, this gives us a great chance to get to round 4, and I'm happy with that. |  |

Whiners? I see plenty of people being cautious about taking this tie for granted, which is wise. Do you remember the Maidstone game at their place?
Cup form. | |

Remember playing them in a friendly under Barrow. It was 1-1 and very very cold. | |

Totally agree, and it's a great chance to push the £100 season tickets so they can use voucher A (or whatever) in the second stage of sales.
If that gains an extra 10 sales, it's worth it.
Easy enough to do: days 1-3 to full ST holders, days 4-5 to half ST holders, day 6 onwards open sale. |  |

Of course you should be cautious, its the ultimate banana skin type game, but Id much rather have this type of tie than away at the big boys of the PL. | |

Good point about avoiding the potential for distraction during the Xmas/NY fixtures, which often have a huge influence on momentum going into the business end of the season | |

Don't understand why any Dale fan would rather play a non-league team away from home than one of the big boys. So we have a supposedly better chance of going a round further before getting knocked out? Big deal! People still talk about our game at Anfield 20 years ago, nobody talks about us managing a draw away at Aldershot a few years back... |  | | |

Aye, that infamous 1-3 defeat at Spotland in November 1966
Brian Richardson, our midfield dynamo, carried off with a broken leg; first time I'd seen that on a football pitch and remember feeling stunned

Close but no cigar. Brian Richardson broke his leg the previous week in the home match against Bradford City. I was at both games and I remember the Richardson injury. I can't recall the Bradford player involved but he " quietened " Richardson who was running the show that day. It wasn't an accident as far as remember it, I think it was an over the ball challenge.
I was getting over my own broken leg at the time so I was particularly un-impressed by the challenge. [Post edited 5 Dec 2016 20:37]

"Don't understand why any Dale fan thinks this" would be my reply to 90% of OD's posts tbf. |  |
