You haven't included Hornchurch v Peterborough, surely that has huge potential for a giantkilling, far more than the two ties you have highlighted above!

[Greg_Dyke]

that was one of my ties of the round...should be a very decent game too...but I fear Peterborough have awesome firepower and Hornchurch may be on the wrong end of a goalfest.

 

I think Histon or Sutton can spring a surprise in the 1st round

[Rhodes]

You haven't touched on Brentford's trip to Havant & Waterlooville, will you be going and how confident are you of either winning or bringing them back to Braemer Road for a lucrative replay.

[Greg_Dyke]

I think Brentford should be very confident of winning.

It is unlikely, the heroes of last year from Havant have mostly moved on, and we are in fine form at the moment.

 

I will be going, as it is a new ground for me....

Presumably barring unforseen circumstances Rhodes.

[Rhodes]

You'll be able to sample Hornchurch's unique and very special hospitality and put a lot of faces to names including living legend Uncle Urchin!

A fantastic result for Leiston last night...I reckon that is result of the round if not the competition to date. Nice friendly club too, I had the pleasure of going there a couple of years ago in the Vase. I wish them well for the next round.

I phoned them, but they didnt seem to want to talk about Havant...so I wrote them a letter instead...I told them it was on your demand that I do this, and got a "knowing sigh" at the other end of the line

I'll be sure to mention this to the good people of Alfreton on Saturday. I have no doubt that they will see sense and let Kentish Town take their rightful place in the 2nd Round Proper.
