All fixtures with a non-league club at home and a league club away. So likely to be more away wins, although obviously 3 of these home clubs were very recently in the football league.
Round 1 4 A Bishop's Stortford v Northampton 9 A Boreham Wood v Carlisle United 8 A Braintree Town v Newport County 5 A Gloucester City v Fleetwood Town 1 D Grimsby Town v Scunthorpe United 7 A Hednesford Town v Crawley Town 3 A Macclesfield Town v Swindon Town 10 A Shortwood United v Port Vale 6 A Tamworth v Cheltenham Town 2 H Lincoln City v Plymouth Argyle

Who knows Earl Purple? That is the beauty of the FA Cup, I just thought there was more chance of upsets with the non league club at home, rather than away, saying that, I'll be interested to see how Bury get on at home!

Nice to see so much thought put into it! There was an awful lot of thought gone into it, so much thought that I thought F**K it, it's only the first round, anything could happen!

Given the route you chose to go down I notice there was one glaring omission... Too scared to pick it?

Not specifically relevant to this but already a pitch inspection planned at the Corby-Dover tie tomorrow morning, and given the forecast for the south-east today and tomorrow the top 3 games here could be under threat too (plus Gillingham tie). Think they'll probably all go ahead though, (but wouldn't be surprised to see Gills game postponed or not finish), so will do these now regardless..
Round 1 D1 Bishop's Stortford v Northampton A9 Boreham Wood v Carlisle United A4 Braintree Town v Newport County A8 Gloucester City v Fleetwood Town A3 Grimsby Town v Scunthorpe United A6 Hednesford Town v Crawley Town A7 Macclesfield Town v Swindon Town A10 Shortwood United v Port Vale A5 Tamworth v Cheltenham Town A2 Lincoln City v Plymouth Argyle

Yeah, I did see the weather didn't look good down south, and yes St Albans v Mansfield was my 11th choice, we should win, but I fear we wont, lots of injuries, suspensions and turmaoil at the mo!

I'm considering doing a replays predicta in Round 2 and Round 3, depending on how many games go to replays, so just to bear it in mind, that midweek predictas may go up as well...

Because of postponemnets and replays, I've had to omit a couple of games I wanted in Round 2, as the outcomes aren't decided until during the week before round 2, making it difficult to get predictions in, so here are the Round 2 games, think just one is a sunday game, and if there are enough replays, these will be some of those to predict on as well...
Round 2 Grimsby v Northampton Town Hartlepool United v Coventry City Kidderminster Harriers v Newport County Macclesfield Town v Brackley MK Dons v Dover Athletic Oldham Athletic v Mansfield Town Plymouth Argyle v Welling United Stevenage v Stourbridge Tamworth v Bristol City Wycombe v Preston
