Don't count your chickens and all that. As draws go that's probably the best you could get, a below average League 2 side. Any non-league team at this stage is going to put up an almighty fight with a sniff of glory to come in the next round. Having said that, if any club really needed a home draw against a BRC right now it's Morecambe.

Wycombe Wanderers v Leatherhead or Billericay Town
I’m sure the loathsome Billericay will screw it up though.

Yeah, a chunk of ties are moved to be part of BBC’s FA Cup Final Score (if it’s still called that) who go from game to game and show all the goals.
Great win for Wimbledon today over Charlton, a team struggling just above the D3 relegation zone comfortably beating a side in the top six of the division - though i’m Not sure how strong the Addicks’ side was.

When were Newport last in the third round - presumably some point while Aldridge was playing for them? A mere two years ago, it seems, and '85-'86 before that:

Am I right in saying that no non-league teams managed to beat opponents from the Football League? Sets things up nicely for Rochdale to make it six televised FA Cup defeats in a row tonight, a run which included an embarrassing home defeat to FCUM which I'm sure many on here enjoyed.
First time ever I'll be able to watch the Dale from the comfort of my own sofa. Can't wait, I think.
