Portsmouth made zero changes in the last round versus their previous league game, we made 5 and still tonked them. Confident we can beat anyone in League 1 or 2 on our day.

It’s a massive free hit though, win and absolutely buzzing with the prize money etc and the chance of a biggy in Round 3. Lose and we can fully focus on wrapping up promotion and a big party in York on Good Friday

I don't see it as a free hit. We have a squad that is capable of beating Orient at home. We're even the bookies favourites. We could do with the money a 3rd round draw would bring in.

Liverpool away would be amazing, it will give cooky his dream of managing there, even if it against them.

Great call.

Well it’s a free hit because if we lose we can focus on the league which is a priority. If we win then happy days but if certainly rather us beat Hartlepool in our next league game

Loads of tickets left at present as North Stand yet to be released... and if they have the North Stand, we are then still yet to release E1 and E2.

I’d say home sales are significantly ahead of the Pompey game at a similar stage and E2 is on sale now

Its not got the 'pull' of the Portsmouth game, so presumably they reduce the prices to try to get another 8k+ gate

Not saying they arent, just saying plenty left at present (900 plus E1). Lets hope for another cracking crowd.

I think it’s because it past of the BBCs Sunday coverage where they go right away to a ground if there’s been a goal or highlight and show it almost instantly, we’re one of those games I believe.

Wouldnt have thought so.....teams play Saturday, Tuesday Saturday all the time. Think the minimum amount of time between games only means if you play on a Thursday would you have to move to a Sunday. As mentioned its more likely down to some international coverage.

More money in the bank if the kickoff is shifted for international coverage? Shouldn’t think it is much for a 2nd round tie though

Think i saw it mentioned somewhere on here that we get some for it, not as much as being on UK TV but something. £30,000 rings a bell but that could be completely wrong.
