    FA Cup - who would we like?

    It's a little early, but the last of the prelims is on Saturday and the draw on Monday evening. Lots of interesting venues in the mix - if we get an away fixture.
    For convenience I'd like Barwell or Alfreton; for a frisson of 'derby' interest then Leek or Altrincham; but for a full day out I'd rather have any of:
    Kings Lynn
    Grimsby
    Blyth Spartans
    Gateshead
    Gainsborough
    Bath City
    Weston-Super-Mare
    Worcester
    Dorchester or
    Maidenhead.

    Bath, Dorchester or Maidenhead for me.
    Either it's an excuse to visit family or it's just down the road.

    Away to non-league in the cup typifies what it's all about.
    Loved the atmosphere at Tamworth a few years back - until we lost!

    Sub-conference team at home will do me nicely

    Aren't Leek and Norton still in it?

    Dorchester would do nicely; not so keen on Weymouth as they might beat us! Cup of tea and a slice of cake for everyone if we get the Magpies as they are known.

    St Albans City would allow a nice mix of football and sightseeing.

    Dover Athletic would be the closest we ever get to playing in Europe.

    And Greenwich Borough would allow for some great newspaper headlines 'Mean time for Crewe as Greenwich have their finest hour'

    Or more postively ' Supersonic Alex fly past Concord Rangers'
