EFL quarter final draw tomorrow at 1215 on Talk Sport. Portsmouth, Exeter City, Newport County, Rovers or Stevenage, Accrington Stanley, Salford City, Leicester City U21s, Scunthorpe or Man City U21s.
It is not a regionalised draw. So big IF we can beat the mighty Stevenage we could get Salford City or Man City away on a cold Tuesday night in Manchester!

Interesting that Gloucester City and Forest Green more likely to be playing in new stadiums before a brick is laid at the Stadium of Light Fruit Market.

There's only 90 grounds in the Football League. |

1. You won't go to Salford, even if that game happens. 2. Do try to keep up, I know it's hard staying across all of the latest news, what with logging in and out of multiple user names and all, but the Fruit Market ain't happening. |

There's only 90 grounds in the Football League. So how come I and many thousands of others are members of the 92 formed by Rovers fan and good friend of mine Gordon Pearce in the 1980s ?
You may be a member of the Mile High club but that don't cut the mustard with us groundhoppers.
In actual fact I have watched Rovers on 157 different grounds/stadiums but I try and blank out those in that lost season in the Conference (I am still getting counselling for that twelve months out of the FL) The long departed Somerton Park, Feethams and the Baseball Ground are three of my faves. Gateshead and Boston the two least liked.

If we get Salford away, my boycott of the competition will be severely tested.

I heard him on the radio, calling in on match days during our 5th tier season, and he wasn't calling from anywhere with a game going on in the background. This happened to poor old Ronnie Reagan in his later years, he got terribly confused between make believe and real life. |

Call me old fashioned but it aint over till the fat lady sings. Gigg Lane is still there and will always be remembered for that 97th minute goal the Shakers scored against Rovers ...still annoyed all these years on

Slight problem with this I don't sweat due to my war experiences have no phone or computer so how could I have phoned in ? Jeremy Corbyn has that problem gets confused with being a potential leader and a left wing protester.

They're not in the League One table, they were expelled from the Football League. With Coventry using St Andrew's there is very literally 90 grounds in the Football League this season. Now, you can carry on this nonsense or like a normal person accept you've been proven wrong. As for "cutting the mustard with us groundhoppers", I just do it for a bit of fun. Not for anyone else.
Have a nice evening.

We've done this before Harry. I heard you myself, calling in during commentary and bigging yourself up, boasting that you are the club's historian. Then spouting incorrect information. Or are there 2 historians called Mike? When you are banged to rights, just put your hands up. Or shall we do the stuff about you working as a code-breaker at Bletchley and leave you humiliated again? |

Exeter City away would have been a very winnable tie. Always loved a trip to the real St James Park genuine community fans and ground has been improved substantially over the past couple of years. Bloodly Stevenage !

Bloodly Stevenage ! I'm taking the underlined comment as a joke, ha ha, - Exeter are sitting pretty in 2nd place in L2 and have not lost in their last 9 league games, if we can't beat Stevenage at home...!! |
