Is that an actual draw where you could play anyone? To me it looks more like a fixture list thats been selected to make virtually every game as local as possible!

I made exactly the same comment after the draw for the last round and was told that it was “regionalised”, which I suspect is a polite way of saying fixed!

Hopefully, if this policy continues and we beat Kidsgrove, it means we have a good chance of getting Chester or you know who in the next round.

“Regionalised”?? FIXED more like, what a farce and all involved ought nto be thourouly ashamed on themselves!! AND another wednesday fixture, which I can’t make!!! Damn them all to heck!
