You really should get out more ... it's a lovely non-lge ground (it's already league-rated if they ever get that far)- a much better pitch than plenty of those in our league - Dover v Saints would be a great third round tie (or we could all go to Chelsea/L'pool/Man U 'again', yawn).

 

I am sure the media will be all over it.

 

You've got it right though, when people ask me where in the world would i most like to see Saints play, i dont say the San Siro, the Bernabeau or the Nou Camp, i say Dover.

There really are some pathetic comments on this thread, yeah let's hope we get knocked out that's the spirit. I'd rather have a bit of hope and do a wycombe or chesterfield who have both got to the semi finals from our division in recent times.

 

Dover away is my choice.

Dover away would be nice - I went today and Dover were well worth their win; in fact they have been good value for both their victories over league oppo.

 

Over 4000 at Crabble today and a cracking atmosphere, would love to see Saints play there.

My home town so would love a trip to The Crabble

Fail to see why you call it pathetic that some of us want to get knocked out. Personally I don't care much for the FA Cup right now, we're not going to win it and I'd much rather we focused all our efforts on getting out this ****ty league. The Cheltenham game already cost us injuries to Lambert, Richardson and Holmes, as well as seeing Fonte banned for the next game. I'd rather not take any chances that could jeopardise a promotion push.

Cup games also give us the chance to give some of the second-string players a game. Morgan sat out his suspension yesterday (if that's a bonus).

6- I would want a team that would best get us to the next round.

 

I love the fa cup and feel although the league is more important the fa cup comes second. JP Trophie and the league cup are not as important. Although I would rest the most important players if possibe in the fa cup, its also a great way to look at players when the pressure is on ie OG did well as did Bart in goal.
