Hope your right because on Ollie Baylis Twitter it days a straight North/south draw 😳
And if that’s right check out this doozie for a Tuesday night ...Truro v. Leiston ... 378 miles ... 7 hours 16 minutes 😳
I suspect the groups were tweaked from the traditional north/south to avoid a tie like this.

Still a long trip though for Telford to Leiston on a Tuesday night.

Played 2, lost 2 at the Isthmian equivalent of our level. Half decent cup results so far though.

What? Common sense from the FA? Surely not 😳

So, that's -

Cambridge, Hednesford, West Bridgford, Newcastle away in the FA Cup
and
Corby, Concord, Barnet, Halifax away in the FA Trophy.

8 on the bounce at odds of 128/1.

not as simple as that, there's a lot more balls in the pot when the draw is started!

It was a dig at the FA as everyone else seems to be doing it. Whether they take us / leave us out each time the home team is drawn ;D

Actually you're right aren't you?
The first draw is 1/1 (evens), even though the chances are 1 in 2. So the second draw would be 2/1 even though the chances are 1 in 4, and so on. But that doesn't make sense does it.
