I thought they only boycotted home matches? Maybe they boycott the FA Cup too, as it generates income for them.

Ahead of this, there will be a reasonable Exiles presence at tonight's televised match for their "adopted" club of Haringey Borough.

In RaWZ we trust....Amen.
Reading Jason’s preview reminded me of seeing a car load of Blackpool fans drive to the old County Ground in the late afternoon before the League Cup game in 1989,obviously no instructions where SJP was so they just drove around until they saw the tall floodlights in St Thomas :D..

I did a similar thing whilst looking for Ayresome Park,Middlesbrough for a game in the 1980s.Saw some floodlight pylons drove towards them & ended up at a railway marshalling yard ! :D.

Yep, the greedy Premier****e "clubs" have torn the heart out of the FA cup.

Plastic fans too.

I think we are going to struggle again... 0-2
I dream of the day that ecfc can be one of those greedy premiership clubs.

Why are Prem fans plastic? I would imagine their clubs mean as much to them as City means to us.

Didn't realise you also went 3-0.

In which case I have no option but to change mine to 3-1.

Aaron Martin own goal in the 94th minute.

I twice - twice! - managed to turn off early looking for the Kassam when seeing signs for "Oxford Stadium" and ended up at the speedway/greyhound track.
