FA Cup Round 1

Yea, I think the Super Mare suffix is really stretching it.

Yes, they won it twice before any of ManUre, Man City, Everton, Liverpool or Arsenal won it for the first time.

The year after Bury first won it they were knocked out by Spurs who went on to win the cup - despite only being Southern League at the time (and they are still the last non-league side to do so).

was that in 1901 by any chance? Usually a 1 in the year when spurs win the cup.

It was indeed!

Bradford are a big fish apparently.
Never mentioned that before :man_facepalming:

Here we go …

Home to Bolton

Nasty draw that one.

Might be picked for the telly

Might be on the box.

And we’ve been ok against league one sides at home so far this year.

Could have been away. That would have been worse

The usual yawn fest. Didn’t we get smacked 5-0 by them in the FAC few years ago?

Under Keates, I think.

A tough draw.
Bolton obvious favourites.

The one positive is that its at home.

Have they scrapped replays now? Is that right?

Home again a big plus

Anyone at home and it’s a winnable tie.

Already played Huddersfield, Exeter and Leicester this season and haven’t lost over 90 minutes.

Need to get practicing penalties :grinning:
