Massive paydays for Grimsby and Barnet, lets hope they get a result.

Thanks to some clearly dodgy dealings we have somehow got another great tie, whilst i would have preferred it at St James's we might have a chance been at home it just means we wont get as much money (which believe me we need) but surely sky will show us, already beaten one Premiership side at home, Necastle likely to play their first choice squad etc.

Bring it on, i'm well looking forward to it

It was my prediction if you read the thread but i ploaced us at home!

The Grimsby ground is a certain leveler!

We'll beat Bolton no problem they probably care about the UEFA Cup,League and FA Cup more

Saying that though by the time the match comes around , the reserves could be the first team .

Any Palace fans see your destruction at Elland Road, the goals weren't pretty but quantity was the aim. Who needs dougie? 3rd Round Man Utd Cmon !

Welcome to the forum mate, but I think we'll use a new thread for this year's third round draw, so I'l lock this one to avoid confusion!
