F.A Cup 2nd Round thread!

So the time has come when we learn of the non-league teams that we will all be cheering for this season as the look to do some giant killing! The draw is tomorrow night and the second round kicks of tonight with a HUGE game at the Walks as Norfolk's only other team competing nationally, Kings Lynn of the Southern Premier, take on Oldham currently in the League 1 play offs!

This is fantastic for the club. I was going to go to the game before I learnt that it was on Sky. Perhaps the biggest game in the clubs history since they took on Everton in the third round decades ago. Oldham will certainly enter a difficult atmosphere to play in. Kings Lynn is one of the roughest towns I have visited and the "Linnets" crowd is often quite hostile. IF they do upset the Latics tonight (gonna take some doing of course) a Norfolk derby would look quite tasty, or of course one of the big teams. What a huge occasion that would be for these part timers!

Sky Sports 1, in half an hour for anyone who fancies watching!

Come on Stockport!!!!

What games are they showing live?

Its 1-1 at present.

Proudlock for Stockport and Ex-Stockport player Easter with Wycombes

1-0 Oldham at the Walks. For the ten minutes Kings Lynn gave as good as they got, but as soon as the goal was scored the game changed and Oldham were on top, treating the match like a training session. But out of nothing Lynn had a chnace as Frew found himself clear only to take it on the edge of the area and completely waste the chance. From then on Lynn looked alot better and had a couple of efforts saved well. So and interesting second half. Probably good for both sides so they can get in, regroup....

Just know that its the Kings Lynn, Oldham game tonight mate. BBC usually show one of the Sunday games, not sure which one though...

Ended 2-0 in the end. Lynn battled well but were always going to struglle with fitness issues. Very unlikely not to at least score. Credit to them and overall about fiar, although Lynn probably deserved a goal as I said.

shrews are out

Stockport won, of course

Hope we get someone big in the third round....so anyone but Chelsea

Poor.

Leave.

Excellent draw for Millwall at Bradford. Are they confident of winning the replay?
Then a shit draw away to Stoke, if it had been against Wstaaaaammmm, I might have flown back to London for the game.

Away to in form Stoke, they might as well let Bradford turn them over in the replay, your right though, great draw. On paper was a home win all the way.

I wanted Millwall at home...time to laugh at them even more
"you're going down with the Orient"

Brighton at home though...lovely draw
