    We don't!

    We have played Aveley, Hornchurch, Oxford City, Havant & Waterlooville and Morpeth Town. Last season 4 out of 5 games were against teams not in our league. Although this season the draw seems to go that way.

    I want us to win every game we play and feel that these games give an opportunity for some of the fringe players to perform and to see how they fit into our style of play. An opportunity to get to Wembley as well.

    Could be a good draw as we have strength in depth , we will see if they have and if they play their 2nd string. Alternatively they could play the first team and burn them out I suppose.

    I’m not really counting last season, with all of those games being behind closed doors. It’s not much use drawing an interesting trip to Morpeth if no one can go.

    By my reckoning, we’ve had seven trophy ties that fans can attend including the upcoming Halifax one (and discounting Harrogate), six of them against fellow National League sides.

    Your post said nothing about that. It was about who we have drawn.
