FA Cup

[steve@dcfd]

We play Scunthorpe away then on the Tuesday after we play them in EFL trophy last group game

[donnievic]

Shoukd do a special price for both both and as away ties goes it prob doesn’t get much better

[HomerJSimpson]

Could well be a TV game though as local derby too. Good tie for a 1st round

Absolutely no chance this will be on TV. They'll pick non league sides v EFL teams. Unfortunately Scunny aren't a non league side.........yet

[big fat yorkshire pudding]

More likely to be one of the Sunday games I reckon.

[ColinDouglasHandshake]

Who do we want then?

Just seen Buxton take the lead late on at York, ex Minsterman and Sheff lad Diego de Girolamo netting that one. So purely on geographical proximity to me, i'd want Buxton or Chesterfield away, who are 3-1 up against Southend so they should go through.

Failing that, a home draw against anyone L2 or below.

[glosterred]

So what/who do we want in the second round? For me a home tie would be nice but with current run we’re on with away draws it might be unlikely to happen. But fingers crossed

[steve@dcfd]

A home draw would be good in any Cup competition when was the last time we were at home

[Janso]

I just keep looking out for the Oldham score cos you know we're f**king nailed on to draw them at some point.

[LincsRover]

I don’t think I’m asking a lot - just a home draw!

[foxbat]

I see Oldham held Ipswich  ( at Ipswich ! )and will be in the hat for the 2nd round draw

Shhh don’t shout too loud just whisper.

[normal rules]

Away to Harrogate.

[Monkcaster_Rover]

I'd like Solihull to turn Wigan over so we can get them.

Old school mates with Solihulls captain (who was a big Rovers fan back in the day) so it'd be nice to see him strut his stuff at the Moat.

[Donnywolf]

So we went 11 out of 11 away draws in FA Cup / League Cup

What are the odds on 11 in a row - and - what would be odds of it being 12

I think 10/10 was 1064 [I read on here] so presumably 2128 & 4256 ?

[watto-drfc]

Whens the 2nd round draw

[Colemans Left Hook]

Assumingthe matches are around the december 4th

An away draw would surely set another  record (and a lot of research for dutch uncle) that would mean we are in a run of league and cup matches  where 7 out of 8 matches are away .....   

[ColinDouglasHandshake]

Whens the 2nd round draw

Not sure exactly but i think it is on Monday night when the last game is being played.

[DRCraig]

Whens the 2nd round draw

monday. Don't know if it is before or after Dag v Salford. Usually before.

[donnievic]

Whens the 2nd round draw

after Monday’s game I believe

[Janso]

Whens the 2nd round draw

Hearing from close sources it's on Monday.

[Campsall rover]

Away to Harrogate.

That would be a very tough game for us. They are very strong at home.
Much more chance of winning at the Keepmoat.

[Padge_DRFC]

Worst side left at home hopefully. 3rd round money needed for sure.

[roversdude]

Whens the 2nd round draw

Heard from a mate who was at a wedding who heard a rumour it’s on Monday

Draw after Mondays game, we are ball number 8

[Donnywolf]

Its an omen Harrog8 nailed on - a bloke at Wedding told me - told me not to say owt but "strayed" from my promise

As much as it would be handy for me I wouldn't fancy us at Town either. Saying that they were poor for an hour, and a goal down, against Wrexham yesterday, but once Simon Weaver made changes and reverted from 4-3-3 to their usual 4-4-2 they were unstoppable and turned the game on it's head with all three substitutes involved in the two goals that won the game.

[drfchound]

I was driving to Derby this afternoon and listened to the second half of the Sheff Wed v Plymouth cup game.
At the end, the commentator said that he had been at Scunny v Rovers yesterday and that it had been dull, dull, dull.
He added that the Hillsborough game had been dull, dull, dull and dull, so four dulls against three.
The strange thing was that he didn’t say it was the worst game he had seen.
