Looked pretty disappointing from the eye test. Aside from that, what a brilliant win!! Get in

All pay and atrocious weather but yes, it was disappointing.

What's the best case scanario draw wise? Away draw to a national league team that get large attendances? I assume gate reciepts are split 50/50 in the trophy

We still could get a local Derby against Corby at Home or away, gate receipts are split 50/50 after expenses,
next round is only still Step 3 and below as far as i am aware.

It’s still only step 3 & 4 in the next round. If we get a home tie, our best bet for a big crowd would be Corby or Harborough, but they are a hard avoid for me.

If we get an away tie, there is a handful of well-supported clubs still in the draw but nothing too crazy to be honest. We need to get through the next round for Step 2.

A winnable home tie and then a big national league north club in the next round. Just don’t want Corby, Anstey, Harborough or real Bedford. Something different makes it more exciting.

Right, fingers crossed we can keep the run going then!

Highlights from AFCRDTV

Well, a pretty clear sending off for Bruno, even though it started with holding from their player you can't just pull another player by the hair. 3 game ban now. Let's hope it doesn't disrupt our flow too much. Was Poku banned on Saturday?
