Tooting/Eastbourne Borough At EP

County have drawn Tooting & Mitcham or Blue Square Premier side Eastbourne Borough at home in the first round proper of the FA Cup.

Now I admittedly had to do a bit of Googling to find anything out about Tooting & Mitcham, and they are a semi-professional football club who merge the two South London towns of Tooting and Mitcham. Obviously.

Known as The Half-half’s because of the merge.

Anyway, I’ll predict a County/Eastbourne clash at EP on the week commencing the 11th November, in a very slippery tie for the Hatters.

A real potential banana skin, but Gary Ablett will be very confident of making it through to the second round.

But then again, Jim Gannon probably felt the same when we drew Staines Town…
