FA Cup R3 | Salford City (H) | Sat 11 Jan 1745

Leyton Orient and Accy Stanley are top of my away Cup draw wish list.
Same and can add Harrogate Town. Needed to play Orient for time as was one of the few I needed to get the 92 grounds watching City and then to complicate things Crawley, Stevenage, Fleetwood, Barrow, Morecambe, Bromley and Salford City turned into wanted Cup away opponents as all new to us, Cheltenham I went but another story(not that game we weren't allowed !!).
 
The trouble with never getting relegated anymore is you just end up going to the same old grounds, year after year. Even the promoted clubs are nearly always teams who’ve not long since being relegated and you’ve been there a thousand times already.

So the 3rd Round is the best chance of the year for a good old fashioned day out.

I’m hoping for something like Accrington, Morecambe, Salford or even Stockport, away.

If not that, then a big club who’ll give us 9,000 tickets.

Anything but a boring home game against a middling Championship side really.
 
Deary me. Top 4 over a trophy? Never.
Unfortunately the money from the CL dwarfs everything else in modern football.
Liverpool won both domestic cups and the UEFA Cup in 2001 (IIRC) and one of the directors was asked which was the highlight. HIs answer was "finishing fourth" as that generated the most cash.
