Fri 3rd Sheppey Utd v Walsall Sat 4th Bromley v Blackpool Sun 5th - Chesterfield v Portsmouth Crewe v Derby Charlton v Cray Valley So i guess ours will be Saturday at 3pm
Could be the Sunday. They usually play a few on Sunday, not just the televised ones. Hope it is Saturday though.
It’s obvious why, Derby are away so more chance of upset. Also we are at home so in reality less chance of an upset(touch wood)
Charlton tie is an exception as they usually put on ties where the bigger side is away from home. Ours wouldn't have been in the running to be picked.
Some good choices for the TV, apart from Crewe v Derby, which is a bit rubbish and not one I’d be interested in watching. Something like Scarborough v Forest Green, Marine v Harrogate, Kidderminster v Fleetwood or Hereford v Gillingham would have been more interesting. I’d even prefer to watch some of the all non-league games, like Alfreton v Worthing, Eastleigh v Boreham Wood or Chesham v Maidstone.
Charlton v Cray valley have been chosen because it’s a local derby with the grounds just three miles apart plus a huge David v Goliath tie. Romance of the cup!
