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.

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...

So the only two of us who declared sticking with our team both get turfed out.

So much for showing some loyalty

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)!
