Who do you fancy?

Some decent lower league away days still in there.

Port Vale
Macc Town
Grimsby
Mansfield
Salford

Maybe even Gateshead for the one true derby.

Why do the balls go in alphabetical order until after the PL and Champ teams and then absolute chaos?

Is it to do with those teams joining at this round, while the lower league teams have a number based on their position in the previous draw?

That's what I was thinking but why? It just seems daft - surely they could just number them all when they know all the teams in the draw.

Not that it matters.
