Keith Hill's holier-than-thou whining was seriously annoying and made winning the championship ahead of them all the more sweet.

In the present day, there isn't really any pressure on us. Rochdale seem to have hit form and will be feeling confident, but I'd still like to have a good go at them instead of giving them too much respect. For what it's worth, I think it'll be a tight game and ultimately a draw. 

Some of their fans still hold a resentment towards Notts.

Rochdale would never have won it, Steve Cotterill surprised us all by improving the form and pushing to the top place. I am pleased we managed to bring them back to Meadow Lane, I hope we can knock them out on our soil.

A draw in a cup game isn't a bad result away from home, I felt Notts did well in spells but neither team punished the other or made the most of chances.

Yeah, pleased with the result and the performance. Agree with IB post match comments that it was a shame we couldn't push on a get another goal. Now it's our turn to play at home, and given the draw is made tonight it could potentially be even more of an incentive if we draw either a L1 team (or Mansfield).

It showed that the gap to the NL and L2 isn't much if anything nowadays, I'm currently watching Dagenham v Salford just waiting for the 2nd round draw and although Salford are 1-0 up there's not a lot in it and it could easily be 1-1...

If we manage to get through against Rochdale it's Magpies v Owls...

Plymouth fans are angry with you They drew at Wednesday so it's a replay at Home Park. I think Plymouth will win the replay but would prefer Wednesday because they would bring a big crowd to the Lane.
