Hamlet pitch two players signed today (one on a month's loan, the other an out of contract signing) straight in to the starting line up. It seems strange but I think their form is pretty appalling so it may be warranted.

Couldn't travel down tonight but it must be the first time I've watched a pre match clip of fans travelling to a game and recognised virtually every one of them.
Playing surprisingly well so far, though the presence of Webster in our back three suggests that Dulwich will surely score at some point.

Bizarre goings on at Accrington - Crewe. The ref got injured midway through the first half and had to go off to be replaced by the fourth official, then at half time another of the officials reported injured. They put a call out to see if there were any qualified refs in the ground, there weren't, so they eventually restarted with one assistant ref and a coin was tossed to decide which side they stood on. Apparently this is all in the FA rules, weirdly. Anyway Crewe are two up and they still haven't got finished.

One of the many things I enjoy about this stage of the competition is seeing where our former players have got to. So far this weekend I've come across Mike Jones, Caolan Lavery and now Vadaine Oliver scoring for Northampton.
Why are Leyton Orient wearing white today BTW?

Less than a thousand in with many Macc supporters protesting outside, Ks fans made up a quarter of the crowd despite the horrible journey and kick off time.
Felt very sorry for the home team who were mostly youth players.

Maldon & Tiptree get the result of the round winning away at Orient who were clearly being punished by the kit gods.
These Sunday 12:45pm kick-off times for the BBC's desultory Final Score programme really are shit, they must massively suppress attendance figures.

Has to be. 6 home wins out of 38 ties so far?
Second round proper draw on tonight at 7 on BBC2, haven't seen where they're sending Mark "Chappers" Chapman to do it. As I said earlier, I have great hopes for it to descend into chaos, with all the 'so and so or so and so and so or so's' in the hat.
