Rovers have already made a fair whack out of this competition, good news.

Team bonus for a win and not great number of paying customers at home games and the costs incurred and not as much as you think left for the club if anything up to press.

Harrogate or Fleetwood at home would be nice

If we could avoid Bolton or Stockport away I'd be happy, but absolutely agree one of there two at home are on paper the easier games, although they just both happen to be bogey teams of ours so who knows!! I'd like to think we really start to take this seriously now - it's a great chance of a trip to Wembley and for fans and players that's a rare occurrence, so be nice to go for it now!

These U21 teams don't seem to do very well year on year

Going to be Rotherham or Huddersfield innit!?

£70k so far
Lose tomorrow in the Fa cup and it’ £68,950 from the FA cup
A win and it’s £127,250 + a minimum of £26,500 from the third round if we lose
Plus whatever we made in the other cup run
