Is that ratio of ESPN games to ITV games going to be the same in later rounds?

Currently Rochdale 1 - 2 FC United! Come on United, I reckon they've got more fans in the ground than Rochdale! Certainly singing non-stop, great atmosphere!!

2-2 now The commentators said there were more FCUM supporters than home supporters. That's quite an achievement. The gap in league places is roughly the equivalent of Chelsea playing Crawley or Newport.

They just said it's easily the biggest crowd of the season at Spotland, over 7,000!

Thought we should have one! We sort of already did... Anyway, well done to FC United. I didn't particularly like them in the past, due to the Man U connections. But having seen their fans when they came up here to play Norton & Stockton Ancients in the 3rd qualifying round, it's hard not to admire what they've done in a short space of time and respect the support they have. They brought about 1000 up on that day, helping Norton achieve a record crowd. I don't have any time for the fans who went crawling back to Old Trafford once Man U started winning trophies (FC's average attendance has almost halved in the last few years) but those who've stayed are clearly passionate about their club so good luck to them. It would be great if they could make it to Round 3 for a possible meeting with Man U.

He so kicked it out of the goalie's hands, but what an end to the game, and that 2nd FCUM goal could grace any top flight game! 7000, blimey!

Oooh, we could merge, hang on, will do it later, if I know how... Bet Robin is happy with County's away win at Gateshead, tough place to go... Stags were very unlucky to lose to a late Torquay goal, deserved a draw More fuel for the anti-holdsworth brigade ;(

One in, one out for Haven's FA Cup teams today.
Droylsden are through to Round 2 after winning 2-0 at Havant & Waterlooville.
Harrow Borough are out after losing 2-0 at home to Chesterfield.

10 non-league teams definitely in Round 2 with more possibly to come after replays.

Was disappointed the Stags lost, would have loved to play them in the second round (or Eastwood, but they also lost!)
