That’s an interesting draw either way.

Fascinating draw. Either opponent should pull in quite a big gate.

Very pleased to get a home draw , let’s all hope it will be against Horsham . I appreciate Bradford would be a bigger crowd but a local derby against Horsham would suit me just fine . I’d even be happy with a replay because they have a nice little ground .
The pick of the draw for me though was two teams I personally loath …… Wrexham v Yeovil .

Home to Barnsley (if it ends up being that) - would that be picked up by TV perhaps?

Clearly BARNSLEY might draw out a few more home fans but might prove a tougher opponent. Should It be Horshan distinct potential of their support matching or exceeding our own support which could make them a difficult hurdle but a home draw is nothing to fear and gives us at least an even chance

Excellent draw in my opinion, irrespective of who Sutton play. It’s at home for a start. Barnsley play decent football, they’re a good club and the supporters are a good lot too. They could possibly be distracted by prioritising promotion back to the Championship?
Horsham would be relatively local and would bring great support; haven’t seen them for quite a few years but they always seem to be involved in good games.

I’d agree it’s a good draw either way. A chance to progress and a decent crowd. Outside possibility of being selected as a tv game.

We’ll they took over 500 to Barnsley on a Friday night with many not being able to attend because of work or school so I’d expect that they would bring double that to us

Looks like our match v Charlton will need to be rearranged as they drew with Cray Valley PM
Well done Cray Valley PM

Fantastic result for Steve McKimm. Is that Mark Watson on the coaching staff with him? Only saw him briefly.
