    Unseeded Northern Section: Accrington Stanley, Bradford City, Crewe Alexandra, Rotherham United, Morecambe, Fleetwood Town, Port Vale, Hartlepool United, Preston North End, Bury, S****horpe United, Oldham Athletic, Chesterfield, Rochdale, Burton Albion, York City, Shrewsbury Town

    Do we want to do well in this or will it be a distraction?

    Wouldn't mind home game first but if away, one of Accrington, Rotherham (can't make friendly), Morecambe, Fleetwood, Burton or Shrewsbury as new gorunds for me.

    I never get why people ask that. Any true fan will want us to win it for a trophy and extra transfer funds and to look more attractive to potential signings.

    If being in a cup is a distraction then last season we would have been relegated by christmas then if we'd have got far in it.

    I want to do well in it. Many will think it deflects attention from the league - which to be fair will be a tough task. Posing the question was to hopefully see both sides of the debate coming through.

    Som emay say look at the Wembley cup-run. Saw us slip into the bottom three

    Wonder what BFC will do if we get Bradford away? Wonder if they'd try get someone else to play on 11 Aug?

    I'm off work that week, so Fleetwood away would make a nice break since i'm not going on holiday this year, couple of days in Blackpool would do the trick.

    I want York Away, would be decent to get to Bootham Cres as they're moving grounds in the near future.

    I would like York away too, closest ground for me, their new ground will be even closer. Or anyone at home.
