Oxford City will be in tomorrows draw with us.

If we manage to draw them away then there would be a strong chance of being on TV.

 

[Jimmycarterxi]

Weymouth away would be a good away day/weekender

 

[holdsteady]

I am hoping we are away to Bracknell Town, purely because they play in Sandhurst and the ground is only over the road from me.

We will probably get Peterborough away though.

God no, anyone but City. Can you imagine if we lost? And could you imagine what it would be like if we lost and your brother is the City DoF...

A football team in Oxford with a DoF? The stuff of dreams.

I hope we avoid City, I want us both to go through

Crikey Is he any good I've heard there is a team who play in yellow from Oxford who could do with a D.O.F

 

[Essexyellows]

Coalville away.............. 11 miles each way.

 

[Oslernorth]

Are there any train strikes planned for the 5th Nov?
It would be good to do another away day, maybe to a new ground?

Oxford Mail headline:

U's lose thanks to City's great Merritt

The only currently planned ones are on Sun 6th but only affecting Avanti West Coast.

 

[Oxford1996]

Maidenhead away.

 

[mooro]

Sutton (h) second time in 12days

 

[stokeu]

Derby away

As always before anyone says ‘s**t draw’, the chance of a fun draw is limited in the FA Cup.

We have 23 League 1 sides and 24 League 2 sides that were all largely familiar with (exceptions being Harrogate, Salford and Sutton - until tomorrow night). We want to avoid them if we can but chances are well draw someone from those divisions.

For rounds 1 and 2, you simply want to get through. Get the lowest ranked side possible which is a few tier seven sides and get on through to the next round.

The cups take on added importance this season. We’re already looking done in our league campaign so any cup runs will at least add some spark to what is proving to be a disappointing league start.

 

[oufc1991]

Oxford city at home would be fun if not then then Swindon home or away at least that wouldn't be boring

 

[werthersoriginal]

I reckon a Conference team at home, someone good enough to put up a fight but bad enough to beat!

 

[Carpy]

DoF

What is this? Never heard of it

^^ what he said

home draw v a low ranked non league side Bracknell Town maybe? to (hopefully) progress into round two, then another home draw V low ranked opposition would be IMO ideal
