Wealdstone have a reputation for having some of the friendliest, welcoming fans in non-league football. Just one small caveat - they don't take too kindly to compliments... TREV: Reminds me of Yosser Hughes from Liverpool....

One of Alan Bleasdale's finest creations.

Obligatory 'tough draw' comment. They'll be well supported, should be interesting. Huge game financially. Is this a huge game for the club financially? very new to the club so please excuse my ignorance just curious.

The 40 1st round winners will get £36,000. I'm net looking any further ahead than that at the moment!

Also, prior to the 3rd round proper, gate receipts are split 50/50 between the two clubs (after expenses), which is why season tickets are not valid.

At this stage is it still 50/50? Or 45/45 with the remaining 10% going to the FA for prize money?

I actually quite like that though. In a way it helps the little guys until the bigger clubs enter.

I'm sure if there's a replay that segregation will be imperative.

Some mixed results for local teams in cup replays last night, Leatherhead beat Hanwell on penalties (now face Hitchin away in the last round of qualifying), Met Police needed extra time to see off Tiverton (play Havant next) but Dorking Wanderers bowed out at home to Gloucester City (Gloucester play Bromley next).
Elsewhere Slough, Poole, St Neots and Guiseley progressed through to next weekends 4th qualifying round.

I might be tempted to offer him a custard cream biscuit and to watch the game from the gantry..

..he doesn't strike me as the custard cream type, particularly. He's more of a hobnob man..
