No non league sides in the third round for the first time in 67 years. A big contrast from last season when non league sides reached the fifth and sixth rounds respectively.

I think I now have a choice between Fleetwood or Leicester. If so I'll swap to Leicester.

Re: FA Cup Prediction Comp (with a twist) 2017/18
Very tempted to stick as Reading are in a wretched run of form and Stevenage had a thumping win on NYD. That said I feel Reading will prevail after a replay so swapping to the Royals please. Not confident.

You were right about the reply! Reading were pretty wretched against Stevenage, playing football the Jaap Stam way...

Re: FA Cup Prediction Comp (with a twist) 2017/18
After sticking with Everton (v Chelsea) in the League Cup based on the Big Sam Bonce which didn't happen - so I ignored Chelsea once before. So I better not ignore Chelsea a second time - I hate the mags and nearly posted before the reply NORWICH v CHELSEA I would take either! In fact I hoped for Chelsea v Mags as I knew no one had Chelsea so I will take Chelsea now.
In case of any doubt its Chelsea Chelsea CHELSEA! ~(FTM) Takes - Forget The Mags (PG)!
