Farsely got a 1-1 draw with Barrow, the winner of the replay is at home to AFC Bournmouth in the next round Barrow won the replay 2-1, and thus are playing in the 1st round against League opposition for the 2nd succesive year.

And I never count chickens. Tried that once, little pests kept running around though and I got dizzy and lost count.

You're supposed to do it before they hatch Eggs are a lot easier to count. They tend to remain relatively static for the time it takes to count them, as long as you haven't put them on a sloping surface.

And that's the Catch-22 Proverbially, the advice is NOT to count them before having hatched, lest some of them then refuse to hatch as expected. Following Giggy's more time consuming and less organised approach is therefore the suggested method - but also prone to error - repeatedly so if the beggars will not remain in one place. It seems to me that the one single foolproof method numerically would be to allow hatching, followed by a swift and painless dispatch to chukky heaven. You get the right answer first time - but lose any opportunity to profit from knowing what the answer actually is!

Or you could get lots of cardboard boxes and put one into each box as they hatch, then count the boxes

When I was a child we had two farms at the top of our road and one of them used to regularly despatch the feathery little boogers to the great coop (oops, sorry, no offence meant) in the sky by means of breaking their necks whilst we young uns would hide behind the hedge watching as they ran around the farmyard, heads flopping from side to side, squawking like demented chickens!

"Sultan's Law" was finally broken at the Kassem Stadium on Saturday, though for a while when the hated Vics got back to 1-1 it still looked on.
Up to then, clubs have managed one win as the "Sultan's Team", Maine Road beating Blackpool Mechanics before losing to Skem, who then beat Marine before succumbing to Southport whose progress was halted by Northwich, after a win at Belper Town.
Oxford does hold some memories. As a quality engineer for HUF UK i had many early morning trips from home to Cowley, and 3 years ago we took my son down to Oxford on his birthday weekend, staying at the Holiday Inn, Kassem Stadium.
From a footballing point of view, the old Oxford ground (The Manor?) held some nice memories for me, as in 1972 Stafford Rangers played the FA Trophy semi there, crushing Yeovil 4-0 on the way to completing the 1st leg of our FACT/NPL double win.
My other memory was going with a rag-supporter workmate to watch the League Cup holders, Oxford, defeat Man Utd 2-0 in Alex Ferguson's first match in charge following the sacking of Ron Atkinson! Happy Days.....

Gainsborough Trinity 0-6 Hartlepool United
Another high scoring game for my list, that's 35 goals in 7 games now (averaging 5 per game). Hartlepool now go onto face either Hereford United or Leeds United.
