FA CUP SECOND ROUND DRAW, MONDAY 12th NOVEMBER [BBC2 7PM]


The draw for the Second Round of this years Emirates FA Cup will be made later on tonight, it will be broadcast live on the BBC Two Channel and the Dons have made it into this draw after a scrappy 1-0 win. We are currently struggling in the league for form on a run of seven without a win and goal scoring is a big problem but eventually overcame a determined Haringey Borough side 1-0 with a 90th minute deflected goal. Update - Neal Ardley's final game as manager as he was dismissed earlier on Monday morning.

There are 40 Numbers in the "hat" for the Second Round, the draw is live shortly after 7pm Monday night and will be hosted by Mark Chapman. 
The draw will take place at the home of Hampton and Richmond FC and will be conducted by former Middlesbrough and Fulham goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer and Brighton and Hove Albion striker Glenn Murray.

AFC Wimbledon are ball No.1. Once again we hope for an easy home draw to see us in with a shout of the lucrative 3rd round tie against the likes of Arsenal, Liverpool or one of the Manchester clubs away (fingers crossed). At least with the scum franchise outfit losing 3-1 against Grimsby there is no chance of that outcome. Good. Well done to the likes of Guiseley who beat Cambridge as well as Chorley and Salford who held league opponents Doncaster and Shrewsbury respectively to remain in the draw tonight.

The Full 2nd round draw will appear here during the evening as the ties are confirmed and the matches are to be played over the period of 30th November - 3rd December with TV games to be decided later but the BBC game is usually on Friday night.




      Guiseley      Vs      Fleetwood Town
      Bury      Vs      Luton Town
      Wrexham      Vs      Newport County
      Tranmere / Oxford City      Vs      Southport
      Southend United / Crawley Town      Vs      Barnsley
      Shrewsbury / Salford      Vs      Scunthorpe United
      Solihull Moors      Vs      Blackpool
      Chesterfield / Billericay      Vs      Grimsby Town
      Peterborough United      Vs      Aldershot / Bradford
      Swindon Town      Vs      Woking
      Maidstone United      Vs      Oldham Athletic
      Lincoln City      Vs      Carlisle United
      Morecambe / FC Halifax      Vs      AFC Wimbledon
      Plymouth Argyle      Vs      Oxford United / Forest Green
      Barnet / Bristol Rovers      Vs      Stockport
      Rochdale      Vs      Portsmouth
      Walsall      Vs      Sunderland
      Accrington Stanley      Vs      Ebbsfleet / Cheltenham
      Mansfield T / Charlton A     Vs      Chorley / Doncaster
      Sutton U / Slough T      Vs      Gillingham / Hartlepool

So the Dons are away once again in round two and have to take on the winners of the Morecambe vs FC Halifax tie. (FC Halifax won the replay 1-0) Hopefully we will have a new manager in place by then and might even win a game.
