FA Cup 3rd Round draw details - The NSC OFFICIAL THREAD

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Tentative win over Mansfield will do just fine.

 

[cattlin'srockshop]

excellent draw for us.

 

[algie]

I bet Villa and Man u are on tv along with either Chelsea vs qpr or Forest Liverpool

 

[Guy Fawkes]

We appear to be picking up teams that have featured in live games on the TV. Torquay and now Mansfield!

Looks like we don't need to wait for the draw, just see who the BBC will be showing before the drawto see who we get next

I think it was 92/93

Round 3 - 1:0 Pompey (Edwards)
Round 4 - 0:1 Man Utd

was that Beckams game

 

[Domsdad]

No problems with Mansfield. For myself I'd have preferred it to be at their place.
Not too far to get to for a certain win which would clear the memories of some of our other visits to Mansfield which weren't always happy.

 

[algie]

was that Beckams game

No Giggs

 

[The Large One]

was that Beckams game

No, the League Cup game was.

The FA Cup game was a Old Trafford, where we didn't do that well. Our best chance was Andy Kennedy's feeble dive in the box.

 

[Superphil]

yep..

I thought the FA had said that no games can be swapped just for financial reasons. Only on Police advice could a game be switched. All came about a few years back when Farnborough got Ansenal at their place, but convinced Arsenal to swap to ensure a better pay day. After that the FA interveined and stopped the practice.

Last year (I think) Havant & Waterlooville got Millwall at home, the Police said their ground was not up to it so the game was played at Fratton Park, think it cost them money rather than making them money.

Great draw. Think we'll win this - bring on the big boys in round 4.

as far as i know both teams have to agree the prices, not sure what the rules are re: swapping venues.

No Becks was at PNE on loan by that stage i think... we didn't play them at home in the FA Cup that year

Yes most bizarre and their games were live just before the draw

 

[Giraffe]

was that Beckams game

No that was in the first leg of a league cup, when beckham made his debut for Man Utd at the Goldstone

 

[Beach Hut]

as far as i know both teams have to agree the prices, not sure what the rules are re: swapping venues.

You can only swap if advised by the police or a health and safety issue

they should concentrate on keeping League status, forget the cup

Looking good if we get to round 4 then, as Aston Villa v Man U is bound to be televised.
