50 minutes up the road for me, the Lincoln Yellows are relatively happy...... That's an away attendance of two sorted then.

Aren't they the furthest team in the draw? Geography not your strongest subject , is it?

Crap draw on a few levels.
A) it's a long way and travelling numbers will be relatively limited.
B) a potential banana skin of epic.
C) Grimsby is a shit hole
D) It won't be a glamour tie as far as they are concerned and subsequently the crowd will probably be low thus not much additional income from gate receipts.

Don't know which is worse Grimsby or Cleethorpes where Blundell Park is situated. Crap draw but winnable. Did Billy Turley make his debut there in August 2005?

But there are 50 better teams than them in the draw, so there are 50 potentially worse draws.

Yep, away from home to a Northern League Two team would've been worse. As would away from home against any of the Northern Teams that went up last season.
Otherwise (save for exiles), that was a truly rubbish draw.

Think it's located in Cleeth, from what I remember. Not a great time of the year to go there, weather wise. The pubs aren't as cheap as you'd expect. Yet, the ladies are welcoming and the lads are up for come civilised banter. If the fixtures over the weekend, I'd stay up there and make a night of it. Wouldn't dare blagging my misses or kids up there, for a "short break"!

Away at Cambridge - only 15 minutes down the road for me. There again, maybe not ... Have Cambridge City made it this year? I remember a few years back they nearly prevented the first MK Dons v AFC Wimbledon game. Sorry for late response, BY. Cambridge C. were defeated 4-2 by Needham Market in the 1st qualifying round. They've had a poor season so far altogether. I went to the 0-0 draw with MK Dons in November 2012, but not the replay - which I think City lost 6-0. I've just been looking up the train times from Ely to Cleethorpes. Definitely do-able! My wife will be away in Dubai, so why not?

My wife will be away in Dubai, so why not? I didn't go down but I watched it at a friend's house (FA Cup First Round Friday, I believe it was, and I didn't have ESPN). They did have a very good goalkeeper if I remember rightly. Barrett, I believe it was, kept MK Dons out for most of the game. Need ham Market are another team who I remember from the FA Cup. They were elected by BBC Radio's "606" programme as their FA Cup team for a while. You may as well go to the game. That's 5 confirmed fans already. At this rate we'll be packed to the rafters of one row.

I think we should aim to take around 400. Away days in the cup with Oxford are often memorable. Let's cheer and get behind the yellows.
