Love that @Mr67 - would be the tie of the round too - the problems would be:
What time would the game be moved to?
Would we let them have the Beechdeen stand again?
Would we get the new access road finished in time?
I rather fancy a trip to Chichester City, who started in the EPR and have battled through six rounds. Nice area for a weekend trip, that would likely be a televised game. No doubt they want Portsmouth though.
Dulwich Hamlet away. Would be good to return to Champion Hill after many years, and see their rebuilt stadium. Also, they pull in much bigger crowds now than when we used to go there.
Just noticed that the FA Cup final is May 23rd and the League One playoff final is May 24th so we could have back to back days at Wembley...Going to have to make sure we go up automatically so we avoid that!
Is an interesting one though - I know unlikely but if a League One or Championship (their playoff final is May 25th) team gets to the cup and their playoff final then seems a bit harsh to make a team play two finals in 2 or 3 days
Are several matches to be moved to Sunday for live updates on BBC again this year, in addition to however many matches will actually be broadcast live? Tried looking it up but can't find clear information.

If you could make further enquiries, I'd be grateful as I am keen to get my weekend planned as soon as possible.
Maybe @rmjlondon could shed some light.
Classic @LX1. That did make me chortle.
Nice easy tie Sunderland home

So Maldon & Tiptree (Isthmian League North - 8th tier) are the lowest-ranked side we could draw.
When is the prize draw, please ?
If we get Salford we will be guaranteed to be televised.
Chichester are the lowest ranked team.
Ah, I didn't see them. Let's have them at home then!
No answer came the stern reply. OK it was probably silly to refer to it as if it was a bloody raffle.
Monday night, guessing there might be a televised game with the draw after that.
7pm tomorrow on BBC Two

Chorley away would do for me.
Thanks guys. No chance of Chorleywood I suppose?
The winner of Wealdstone Vs Maidenhead away would suit a lot of fans.
Cambridge away got family there.
Alphabetical order for the league clubs, then totally random for non league? Not on alphabet, division or anything?
I think it's done in the order the ties were drawn out for the last round.

Its worth saying - we might have a good chance of being televised (which is very rarely the case)

Oh no, just realised tonight's draw is on 'The One Show.'
Bring back Bert Millichip, Graham Kelly and a silk bag full of balls
Edit..It isn't I've been mis-informed
Nantwich Town away please
Boring draw. Tranmere away.
Two games up there in a row
Dull, dull.
