I'd like to be a fly on the wall of Spotlight Sports Desk as they prepare for tomorrow evening's piece. :ROFLMAO:
"Tonight, defeat for the Chiefs whilst the Plymouth Raiders Basketball Team win again and Kathy Penberrow from Mevagissey wins the UK body surfing championships. Now, to Craig Rich with the weather.."

I'd like a lower non-league club at home to give us the best chance of making the 3rd Round and then Man Utd (home or away).

In my lifetime Man Utd are the only league team we have never played, 1948 being our last meeting, in our last season in the top tier.

Best to play them away first. You can get a 0-0 draw, make money from both legs, one of your players can nutmeg Ronaldo in front of the cameras, and the press will give you lots of coverage.

Yes, and nowadays the first game away at Old Trafford would be selected for live tv coverage too...

To the best of my knowledge City are still just lacking Arsenal and Middlesbrough for the complete set.

IF we get through R2 either would do - although, preferably, the former away and the latter at home.
