We do have a habit of struggling with teams a division lower than us when it comes to cup runs. In previous years it seems we didn't take them serious enough & put out our B sides, but this time it just seems to be complacency. Hopefully the off field staff can get the players heads straight this time around though. | | |

Barrow away would have been better for ground ticking purposes | | |

If we can oldham to a 1-0 win then we can roll out the barrow to get to the 3rd round. | | |

It's difficult to care about the FA Cup first round, clearly the supporters are not taking it seriously with an attendance of 8000. I care more about the Pizza Cup this year, because we could definitely win that one, or we could get to the third round of the FA Cup and lose to a Premier League team. | | |

@Mickmillstache - if we beat Oldham next week you will probably get a chance to tick off Barrow when we go there for the replay! | | |

I guess they are so small the BBC might put it on live as there is hardly a certainty we'll beat Oldham, but neither a certainty we'd be barrow. | | |
