    That time of the year when we get exited about facing someone we've never faced or not for a long time, but then draw someone in our own league.

    Incredibly we were two balls away from getting Marine again.
    Marine
    Harrogate
    Then us. Very close call

    Fab draw. Unless I’m mistaken, I don’t think we’ve ever played Horsham

    Hope we play a strong side. I'd rather say that's football than what if.
    If we lost.

    Official figure for our support was 7,500.
    Apparently more than Arsenal took that year.

    The thought of not playing a full strength side in the FA Cup Hooky is, in my opinion, just batsh*t bonkers. If we can't be bothered to take the most prestigious domestic cup competition in the world seriously we might as well just pack in and turn Oakwell into a housing estate.

    Let's do what we did 15 years ago and get to Oakwell South again

    The Portsmouth members of the board would have no doubt preferred an away draw...

    Jalo would run them ragged. Need to take any opponent seriously, but a good draw for us.

    I was 10 years old when we lost to Marine, would certainly be interested in any accounts of that day?
    My cousin went and was well cheesed off the following day , just saying "it was shat, in a shat place, in the middle of a rec" lol.

    With respect. I'm not sure how an official figure was reached. As just over 35k were in the ground and it was anyone's guess how many Barnsley fans were in the ground as it was pay on gate. And it was higher than the Spurs-Arsenal gate. Just less than 33k.
    Just over a week b4.

    He summed it up perfectly. I could claim Barnsley went through the motions, but we didn't even manage that.

    Memories of Michael Spinks, then Supporters Club Chief Chuff, stood on a bin berating the players through an open window looking down in to our dressing room.
