Decent enough draw for us. Winnable tie so got to be pleased with that.

I'd prefer Cheltenham to win tonight because we're already playing Exeter twice in the league and once in the Vertu Trophy.

Any team at Home would have been a good draw - If we win the bigger Premier League clubs then take part .

Brilliant for Grimsby. Should get plenty of tickets money/Sky TV money.

Would be funny if they beat United as well.
