If you are not getting a home draw, you don't want a League One side, a non-league team or a long journey. So I'm happy. It should be winnable if we play to our potential.

I'd also have preferred someone else as we've played Accrington a couple of times recently in Cup contests and after a sticky start their league form is starting to pick up. A winnable, if far from easy tie.

I would still prefer Accrington to the majority of League One or Two sides away from home, or even the top Conference sides such as Cambridge. Plus it is easy to reach and we are likely to match the home support in numbers, which gives us a psychological boost. If we are not reasonably confident about beating Accy we are not going far in the cup this year.

Hmm... Think this could be a tricky one especially if our focus is on the league. Could have been a lot worse though :p

Think we will need a replay - wonder if Wallace will be ready for the bench at least. Good cup run might make us more desirable to a buyer I guess.

Higgy, Wallace hasn't played a game for 11 months and not yet played in the reserves he wont be risked for a whole yet.
