All 3 matches kick off this Saturday 15:00, so you have until that to let me know if you are twisting or sticking. It would be preferred if you let me know that you are sticking too (even though I'll still assume that if you don't post anything)

After being behind going into injury time in the first round replay and then going behind again in extra time, I think I deserved a cushty 4-0 win yesterday (against higher league opposition no less).

The 3rd round draw and choosing when to swap are what this is all about. The magic of the FA Cup. ...

Well played Moist - wasn't sure how it was going to end with the fog rolling in and Oldham chasing an equaliser.

Good luck in next round - think I would have switched asap if I had won through.

Makes sense to play the next week

The Monday and Thursday games of week before would mean disrupting League matches at short notice
to move to a Friday or Sunday

True but only Chelsea, if you're into biguns there should be plenty available in Round 4 providing you get past Barra!
