Personally I believe we will get a home tie against someone boring like Broadfields or Kings Langley, But I'd like us to play Welwyn. Would be nice to meet up with some of my pals at their club. Great fans too!

Hello Ash Boro Loyal Thank You For That.
We’ve Had A Wide And Varied View On The Forum Who We Are Going To Draw Tomorrow At 1pm.
Welwyn Sounds Good Hopefully At Home!
But We Have Gone As Far As Norwich And As Near As Bedfont Sports From Aylesbury To Ebsfleet And From Jersey To Billericay On Our Quest
For A 3rd Qualifying Round Oponent!!!
Not Forgetting Marlow,Chertsey Or Ware With Their Plastic Pitch Which We Don’t Want!
Seriously For A Mo,This Is The Real Magic Of The FA Cup For Fans At Our Level.
Yes Of Course Prize Money Won Is A Great Boost For Harrow Borough and All Non League Teams.
The Excitement Of This Draw at 1pm Tomorrow And Who We Get Knowing Of Course A Win In This Round And We Could Face A Big Club From The National League.

Broadfields are out but I think that would have been a good game. Probably the most local derby we could have!!

Yes Broadfields Would Be A Great Local Derby HarrowRed.
But There’s A Great Gulf In Class And I Would Be Confident We Would Beat Them Either Home Or Away.

There’s some talk on twitter that this stage of the draw is regionalised 3 ways rather than 2. Based on last years 3rd QR, we would be in the southern part of the draw whereas Norwich, Welwyn, Aylesbury etc would all likely be in the midlands part of the draw.

Thanks For That HarrowRed.
So We Maybe Going Down South East For An Opponent!
As Long As It’s Not Jersey Away!
So In That Case Maybe Now Ebbsfleet Are The Favourites We Will Play After The Many Teams Mentioned!
Roll On 1pm For The Big Draw!!!

Interesting to note that as Jersey were drawn away to Sutton Commom in the 2Q and drew, the replay is also being held at Sutton Common again per FA rules. Jersey cannot host midweek replay games unless the other team agrees. SC didn’t agree so get another home game.

That Seems Unfair On Jersey HarrowRed.
Because They Earned That Replay And Deserve Home Advantage.
If This Is A Question Of Money Surely The Jersey FA Should Seek Some Sort Of Payment From The FA As Jersey Are In A Truly Unique Situation!

From the Jersey Bulls website:
Jersey Bulls FC are set to lose home advantage in this week’s FA Cup 2nd Qualifying Round Replay.
Whilst we had pre-arranged for Sutton Common Rovers to come to Springfield Stadium if a replay was required it became apparent that it was logistically difficult for Sutton Common Rovers to travel to the Island. FA rules state that if an offshore Island club is drawn away on the mainland then any midweek replay must also be played on the mainland again (unless both clubs agree to play offshore in Jersey).
Sadly despite looking at various midweek options, we have had to agree to play Sutton Common Rovers back at Gander Green Lane on Tuesday 21st September with a 7.30pm kick off.
A statement from the clubs Board said “We are disappointed for the Island and the footballing community as a whole that we won’t have the opportunity to host the FA Cup replay this week in Jersey at Springfield Stadium.”
The commitment from our travelling support, players and management team is outstanding. We are very proud of the dedication and passion they have for their Island.
We would like to ask the FA to review the ruling. The FA Cup is a National competition for clubs from the Premiership (effectively known as Tier 1) all the way down to Tier 10. This ruling effectively means that no matter how far an off shore club, such as Jersey, Guernsey or the Isle of Man progresses, they will never play a home midweek game in the FA Cup.
We understand that teams in Tier 1 to Tier 8 are already required to play away from home midweek against an off shore clubs who come into their League and we would like to request that this is mirrored in the FA Cup.
We now will focus and prepare to travel away for our FA Cup 2nd Qualifying round replay on Tuesday 21st September. We thank everyone for their understanding.

These draws are always regionalised. When you get to the 4th qual round it becomes north/south. Even a couple of rounds ago, we couldn't have been drawn against Hendon. We were in the south east region and they were put in the south central (and dtew Corby). So in the previous two rounds we've been put in with the Kent, Sussex and Surrey teams.
From memory, I think the 3rd qual round is usually split into three. The south east and south west get combined together. There is then a midlands section and a northern section. Let's wait and see.

Cheers Cappers.
I’m Hoping It’s A Home Tie At Earlsmead and Whoever We Draw I’m Confident We Will Beat Them With The Outstanding Form We Are Showing At The Moment.
I Notice Frome Town Won On Saturday!
Maybe Them!

Good question Terry!
Like you said Bedfont would be a good draw. They did knock out Dulwich and we would go in as big favourites but relatively local and I’m sure it would be a good game.
Other local-ish teams include Wingate, Kings Langley, Welwyn Garden, Hemel/Ware.
I still maintain that Chertsey and Marlow are teams to avoid from leagues below. I would also like to avoid Hayes. A team from Southern Central over Southern South if it’s a team from our level just from an interesting point of view.
I like the sound of Ware/Hemel but am going to guess that we get Aylesbury United or Ebbsfleet.

Thank You As Always Dave Town Colours,The Majors Hat And HarrowRed.
Marlow Or Chertsey Would Be 2 To Avoid Agreed And Jersey Are Dark Horses At This Level Somewhat.
I Know Ware Have A Plastic Pitch So We Don’t Want Them!
If We Can’t Have Bedfont I’ve Got A Feeling It Could Be Aylesbury Utd
As HarrowRed Said.
That Would Be A Very Winnable Tie Like Welling And We Could Then Dream Of A 4Th Qualifying Tie Against The Old “Enemy”Wealdstone Pray God At Earlsmead!!!

Yes HarrowRed The Way We Played In The Past With The Short Passing Game Etc Wealdstone Would Have Beaten Us.
But Not Now We Are Playing A More Direct And Physical Game.
The Reporter In The Non League Paper Today In His Report Noted Of Our High Press Game.
Let’s Get This Right.
Wealdstone Are A Struggling Conference Team And Believe Me They Wouldn’t Fancy Playing Us In An FA Cup 4Th Qualifying Tie At Earlsmead When All The Pressure Would Be On Them And We Would Have Nothing To Lose.
I Think We Would Beat Them 2-1 On Current Form.
Wealdstone Are An Average Team With Average Players Thats The Truth.

I'd quite like another draw against a National League South team. I'm not sure how strong that division is at the moment. I see that a fair few National league south teams lost to lower league opposition. Welling to us, Oxford City to Frome two divs below, Tonbridge were thrashed 5-0 by Hayes. Slough lost to Whitehawk two divs below and Dulwich lost to Bedfont from two divs below.
Billericay only have one point in that division so Billericay away would be my 'dream' draw.

Thank You Cappers For Those Thoughts.
I’ve Had A Few Issues With Fans From Essex In The Past.
Grays Athletic Springs To Mind!
But I Would Take Billericay At Home And Be Confident We Would Knock Them Out Of The FA Cup.
I’ve A Feeling It’s Going To Be Bedfont Sports Or Aylesbury United As HarrowRed Said.

I’m also going to throw out Hastings United. The last two rounds they have been away to Harefield and Broadfields. The draw might send them this way once more

Yes Possibly Hastings, HarrowRed.
They Say Things Come In 3s!!!
That Would Be A Very Winnable Tie Also!
I Keep Saying That!
If You Go To London Football On Twitter Hopefully They Will Do AsThey Did With The Last Rounds Draw And Relay The Draw From 1pm Live On Monday With 5 Matches At A Time.

It has to be away to Jersey Bulls if they win their replay.
We seem to play better away from home and we couldn't get much further than Jersey.
Great away weekend possibilities if you're double jabbed.

I was thinking of Marlow Terrance. Then i looked at their league position only to note they had not conceded a goal.
I suppose any team still left in the draw will be difficult. Bedfont Sports? Probable a reasonable draw on paper although they will be more than confident after outing Dulwich. I personally prefer an away tie to a team without a plastic pitch.
