    My cunning plan.........

    Cup draw stays the same until 3rd round. Then............

    Top 32 teams from Prem down to 12th in Championship are seeded and placed in an away pot.

    Smaller teams at home hopefully would attract bigger crowds, BUT (and this is the sneaky part) the seeded away clubs can offer to buy a home tie. Set the fee at say, £250k for the 3rd round, £350k for the 4th, etc. The home team can either forfeit the home tie or refuse to move.

    So, say, Gateshead are drawn at home to Spurs. They can get £250k to play at White Hart Lane. If they do move it and get a draw, well, thats double bubble.

    I'm never a lover of seeding.

    **** the crowd we play better the less that's there lol
    Looks like it's costing me over a grand to get to wembley if my ticket works out so you can understand the reason why there was only 16.000
