FA Cup 3rd round draw

[MJB]

I’d like an afternoon kickoff on the weekend as I’d like to take the eldest (who’s first game was the Exeter match) and a nighttime game will be too late for her.

Have a feeling it will be Friday or Monday night though.

When do they announce the TV games?

 

[horseman]

ITV and BBC are showing 6 live games between them I believe

BT ?

When will they announce the Tele games I need to know when our game will be because it will either be a day a/l if it's 12:30 ko or if it's Friday/Monday night that's good for me so is Saturday 3pm.

hope they take full advantage and do Barnsley charlton and Arsenal as a full package...important to fill the ground and attract new fans not just v Arsenal.

3.000 fans that were there Saturday deserve first divs too.

Suddenly the cost of living, Christmas will be forgotten as the mad scramble begins.

ST holders should get first dibs

Arsenal play on Tuesday 3rd December so cant see us playing 3 days later on the 6th.

Temporary stand at The Fence End?

With Kassam the owner wanting his cut? No thanks

Oxford Utd v Exeter City : FAC 2nd Round : MDT

As an aside, in neither game did we appear to get stronger the longer it went on. Collectively, it’s not been obvious that fitness has been an issue for us this season so, on the face of things, it seems a little odd to adopt a radically different approach. Haven’t caught up with the fans’...

There is a laid down hierarchy for home cup and play off ticket sales. Season tickets. Then the various levels of membership. They aren’t about to announce three ticket stubs or queuing at half time.

At least it will give our “once a season” season ticket holder an opportunity to see a match.

The only reason I`ll go is to annoy you.

And it`ll be my second game this season thank you.

BT ?

No the FA cup has to be free

 

[Northstandboy]

BT ?

No longer on BT. Thank god!

Reminds me of when we completely cheesed a League Cup win over Millwall a couple years ago with two nonsense goals in the last min and then pens and then got West Ham at home in the next round!

Arsenal play on Tuesday 3rd Jan so cant see us playing 3 days later on the 6th.

The other potential TV picks all play on either the 3rd or later, so can't see that stopping it.
They won't be picking the full first team either, which will improve our chances slightly.

The ‘new’ owners might actually be prepared to stomach and afford Kassam having his share with a fourth stand if it serves to show that we can actually draw crowds of 15k and therefore need a bigger ground?

 

[Leysboy]

Perhaps I should start the cup draw threads all the time, if it brings clubs like Arsenal to play us.

See I’m not all bad.

Wouldn't you need planning permission to build a 2500 temp stand?
