He can still see the last penalty of the shootout which shocked League Two Colchester United on their own patch in the first round, \u201cone of my greatest memories in football\u201d. He can still picture Niall Cummins\u2019 dramatic 120th-minute winner against Havant & Waterlooville in the second round which sparked \u201cbedlam,\u201d even in an empty stadium in lockdown.<\/p>\n That result was their ninth knockout win of the competition and it put Marine AFC, a volunteer-led club playing in the Northern Premier League Division One North West, into the hat for the third round with some of the biggest teams in the world. It was only the second time an eighth-tier side had ever reached that stage of the FA Cup.<\/p>\n On the face of it, the third-round draw is a ludicrous enterprise.
