FA Cup draw

[CornishOx]

Pretty hard to get a decent draw in round 1. Don't mind that one at all really

 

[Ox4Eva]

Port Vale v Sunderland will probably be a TV game or Haringey v Wimbledon

FGR are uninteresting club but hopefully it's a winnable tie!

 

[Peterdev]

This is very winnable. Not sure if we have played them before, but one to look forward to

Reckon they will bring 500 odd for this one so hopefully a decentish atmosphere and, obviously, it is winnable

 

[Sarge]

If memory serves (it might not?) at some point in the 1970s didn't FGR play some kind of cup/trophy/vase game.......against fellow non league opposition....in either a semi final or 2nd replay, on a neutral ground... which was the manor?

We have played them a few times. Floodlights failure and the PA announcer telling us off are the most notable memories! Also 5-1.

in the FA Cup 2nd round in 15/16, plus eight times in non league (and 1 in the setanta shield)

 

[ttg17]

We played them in 15-16 didn't we? FA Cup 2nd round? 1-0 Roofe if memory serves.

 

[battman]

Some must have short memories, we played them at home in the second round in 2015

 

[Oufcrealist]

Winnable but tricky. 9th in L2. Mark Cooper is a decent manager.

 

[Pompeyyellows]

Pompey tie will surely be 1 of the televised ties.

 

[West Oxon U’s]

We played some bizarre Setanta Cup competition down there one year where under 400 were in attendance.

We lost that game.

Yes dull game, they were beefy and dirty, finally Roofe got a slightly flukey breakthrough. I’ve avoided the bloke’s green electricity company ever since.

Pa announcer had a proper carrot crunchers accent...and little if any sense of humour (If memory serves of course)

 

[Malc]

Ooh aarh you be roight there me boyyo.

You’re not the sharpest tool in the box are you? ?

Floodlights failure was "Stroud's fault" I recall him trying to tell us. Another classic non-league moment to findly look back on but never want to repeat.

 

[windmill]

We played them eight times during the Conference years!

Quite right. Clist played well against us, so we signed him up!

 

[Marked Ox]

We have played them a few times. Floodlights failure and the PA announcer telling us off are the most notable memories! Also 5-1.

The 5-1 was notable for Colin Peake, in a thick country accent, announcing that the home fans were being kept back after the game to allow away fans to leave to much amusement. Rob Duffy scored (iirc) followed by chants of "3-1 and you can't go home" particularly aimed at Scumdon fans. Subsequent goals allowed more such chants. Very enjoyable.

Apart from that though.
