    So, after last season’s FA Cup Final was mysteriously cancelled by the FA, depriving us of our first opportunity to win the cup in 35 years, it’s 3rd round draw time in a minute.

    Who do we want? I fancy Man City away.

    We are number 40, which will is coindentally the number of minutes Holebas will play in this years competition before being sent off and we lose.

    Man City please. Lets not play more than we have to this season, there's only so much **** I can put up with.

    Watford v Tranmere is a cert for one of the televised games.

    I predict the attendance for this game will be no more than 6,000.

    Last time we played Tranmere at the Vic was a rather special occassion.

    GT farewell, Elton John on a big screen and Allan Neilson getting the equaliser.

    It’ll be like the game in 1999, we’ll have two sent off and it’ll kick start Tommy Mooney’s scoring run thus keeping us in the Premier League.

    You’d think I’d be anything but excited for a cup run based on last seasons final and how utterly depressing this season has been. But nope, I still dream of winning something, tranmere at home good start and cheap tickets to bring the family.

    Thank you; but just like the real police, I think there may be too much paperwork involved in that sentence, the pay is poor and I'll get dissed.

    As a 68/69 glory hunter, there are certain clubs that I always benchmark us against. The top 10 in Div III that season were:

    Watford
    Swindon
    LTFC
    Bournemouth
    Plymouth
    Torquay
    Tranmere
    Southport
    Stockport
    Barnsley

    (btw grand old names in this group - 1 Argyle, 1 Athletic, 1 County, 1 Rovers, 1 United and 2 Towns)

    In the intervening years I think we have out-performed all of this group, who are now spread throughout the pyramid:

    PL 2
    EFL Champ 2
    EFL One 1
    EFL Two 2
    NL 2
    NL North 1
