Yes - didn't look like a sell out which was a bit surprising.

Thought they deserved it too. Well done to all the non league sides, Oxford, York, Kettering, Bath City, Staines and Northwich. Anybody see the elbow by the Charlton player in that game right at the start of the second half?  Kettering v Leeds in the next round  |

Thought Northwich gave a very good account of themselves and did the "non-league" banner proud. Shocking Elbow by Macleod and he should have walked. Other than that incident I thought the referee was very good, not brandishing cards left right and center when others would have done. Maybe he took into account the importance of the game to the minnows and had strong words when others would have waved their coloured cards willy nilly. It was surprising to see the stand opposite the cameras only 2/3rds full, and they must be disappointed with attendance of only just over 2,000. How many will be back for the next home game??? My guess is most where there so they could say " Oh yes, I went to that historic match" Pity they don't come back every week.... We should know.... 2005 V Oxford? Where are those 3,000 extras now???

Not a good day for ex Boro defender Andy Ballard, who plays for Oxford City. Was sent off in their game vs Burton, and the free kick that followed lead to Burton's stoppage time goal and they lost 3-2  |

I enjoyed the game, the lad who scored reminded me of Nathan.  |
