One of the teams in the draw is Salford City FC who are owned by the Man Utd Class of 92 apart from Beckham.

They have reached the 1st round for the first time in their history. They wont get Man Utd tomorrow but they might get FC United of Manchester.

Love the bluntness of this manager http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/34638655

Your lot have got my old team, not that they stand any chance against a team flying high in the division above them in the replay. Did well enough coming back from 3-1 down in the home tie on Saturday.

You probably won't remember but Havant and Waterlooville were 2-1 up briefly at Anfield in the fourth round of the cup a few years back. Went on to lose 5-2!

I do remember them playing Liverpool but I couldn't remember the result.

No doubt the BBC will want the Salford FC game to show live.

I reckon so with all the Man U connections and especially as they've got a home tie to a league side.

Can't complain with Aldershot away (apart from the long distance trek), more so when Bradford have been blessed with good cup ties in the past four years. Just grateful it's not against a boring football league side.

One of the live TV games will be FC United of Manchester v Chesterfield but they're not happy about it.

Long hair too...and yet looks older, and - dare I say it? - more mature, and less angry.

That Salford pitch reminds me of those football fields I used to play on as a teenager in Jamaica....

Goalless at half-time...the Class of '92 heading every ball, kicking every shot.

Wow, as soon as the second half starts, Salford go 1-0 up.
