    Draw for the 3rd round was made a little while ago, and we got the ideal draw - Morcambe at home. What does everyone think full strength side or mix it up , giving some academy boys a run.

    Would Morecambe make a lot more money if they got the home tie ??
    Anyway, hope they make as much from it as possible.

    It's worth looking at last season's for comparison
    Marine: Harvey White played 90 minutes, Alfie Devine was a halftime sub
    Wycombe: first teamers only, albeit heavily rotated

    White and Scarlett may get starts, but we'll likely get Doherty instead of Lavinier etc etc

    As most have said second stringers can't be trusted.
    A mix of 1st team and fringe academy players for the exposure, would love to see Harvey white get some minutes.

    What a poor selection from both BBC & ITV for the live games. If I was chairman of one of the non league clubs, I’d be fuming.

    They're legally required to show Man Utd in the FA Cup, though. Apparently.

    What a mockery of the magic of R3.

    I would want at least the Chelsky game broadcast live on UK TV.

    Morecambe could feel hard done by, but I could accept
    Swindon vs Citeh being shown instead (if there is some
    equitable general selection scheme for the broadcasters) .

    Or, for that matter, why is nobody showing Leicester/Watford?

    Oh, right, I forgot - nobody won the FA Cup last season...

    Another game needlessly moved to 2pm Sunday. Beginning to get annoying now, surely the fact we play Sunday’s due to Europe means they should let us play on a Saturday the few times we get an opportunity to! Same thing happened with Norwich as for some reason Amazon felt the need to put us on Thursday night.

    Birmingham v Plymouth is now a 5.30 ko on the Saturday to “facilitate overseas broadcasts” <doh>

    The websites must be crashing for those " overseas broadcasters" signing up for the M5 derby
