[Laz]

Do the Conf National teams enter in the 4th round?

 

If so how regionalised is it?

 

I don't fancy a trip to Exeter on a Tuesday night again!

[Hatboy]

They do all come in for the next round, I don't know if it's regionalised though !

[Laz]

I hear that...

 

The draw the fourth round is being made live on Setanta on Thursday during the live Kidderminster and Cambridge United game.

 

As yet, they have not decided if the draw will be regionalised.

 

The fourth round will be played on Saturday, 22th December, so should be beat Thurrock then our game at Hayes will be cancelled.

[Boney Maroney]

Isn't the 4th Round on Sat 22nd December, Laz?

Excellent; Bring on the mighty York City!

My source tells me that they changed their minds! I fancied a trip to York too. I'll settle for Weymouth!

[JKiF]

Possibility if you get through, you could be the live Setanta game.

[Laz]

I was wondering about that. I think we need to worry about Thurrock first though. Our recent record against them isn't good!

[YELLOW]

Looking at the draw they'd probably select Shots v Oxford as the live game. I assume the live Setanta game would be played on the Sunday?

[Laz]

They've said 22nd and 23rd so it does look like the live game is Sunday. We still have our TV gantry so we could do it at Clarence Park.

[Hatboy]

We've been drawn at Home to Aldershot in the 5th round.

[YELLOW]

Just seen the result. Well done.
