Could be a Dover v North Ferriby final! Thank God we are not in it

Dover Athletic v Bath City
Dartford or FC Halifax Town v Wrexham or Gateshead
Torquay United v FC United of Manchester
North Ferriby United v Braintree Town or Ebbsfleet United

On form of the last 3 months you'd have to make Dover favourites.

Doesn't look a strong line-up does it. None of the top non-league sides involved.

Just imagine the noise that would be created by a bath city v Gateshead final (no offence bath city)

What's the lowest attendance out of interest at the new wembley?

Joke, insomuch as they keep requesting a replay rather than finishing it on the night

Hopefully forever. It's bad enough being in this league but even worse having to watch us play (and sometimes lose) to teams like Chasetown.

If/when we get out of this league, the Trophy will be the thing i remember the least fondly, especially the worst/coldest day out at Wembley ever.

Ideal draw for the semi finals will be,

After Gateshead win against Wrexham after 4 postponements,

They draw Braintree in the semi ,

Both have rubbish pitches and have 6 postpone games before they can get to the final.

Dont want Braintree in the semi final because it will mean our game on 28th Feb is postponed

I notice that all three replays are now scheduled for next Tuesday. What happened to FAT matches having to be played on the following Saturday thus pushing the league game back instead?  Wasn't this the scenario facing us if the Gateshead replay was postponed one more time?

Conference use a different rule book when Town are not involved.

Nothing to do with an anti-GTFC agenda.

The next round isn't until Feb 7.

The Gateshead game would've been played on the Saturday because that was the date of the next round (we didn't play on the 17th after the first postponement).
