Are you happy with our second round draw?
The tie will be played either on the 1st or 2nd of December.

Hornets Manager John Maggs has given his first reaction to the draw and has proclaimed that the game is winnable despite the gap between the two clubs.

Maggs told West Sussex County Times:

"It is an excellent draw. We could not ask for better."

We just need to get our heads round it now and make sure we are organised for the game."

The three sides you would want were Nottingham Forest, Leeds or Swansea, so that's great. There could be a shock on the cards, I think it's a winnable game."'


Swansea have a very good chance of securing passage into the 3rd round of the FA Cup.However the Ryman leauge side will prove a tough test for the club.

FULL 2ND ROUND DRAW:

Oxford Utd v Southend Utd
Swindon v Forest Green or Rotherham
Oldham or Doncaster v Crewe
Darlington or Northampton v Walsall
Cambridge Utd v Weymouth
Millwall v Barrow or Bournemouth

Another tie against non league opposition is what you should be thankful for!!! You should be able to make round three no problem.

we only narrowly got through vs billericay. hopefully we've learnt our lesson and from some of the mistakes we made yesterday. we should make it through more comfortably against more non league opposition.
