Who is the lowest ranked left?

Either them or man city, if Accrington are knocked out already
 
Bit of a shame there's not many non league sides left in the hat. Fylde got a home draw on Friday as did Woking today. 7th tier Hereford (although they are renowned FA Cup specialists, at least the old club) got a great draw away at Fleetwood in the 3rd tier, so that tie is probably nearly 50/50. Slough play tomorrow at home on TV. So you're probably looking at 0, 1 or a max of 2 making the third round proper.

Last season we had Lincoln (quarter finalists), Sutton (5th round), Barrow, Stourbridge (7th tier) and Eastleigh all playing 3rd round matches.

2015/16 there was only Eastleigh, but 2014/15 had Blyth, Gateshead, Southport, Dover and Wrexham.
 
anyone but newcastle. maybe everton/west brom/leicester away so we can just get on with getting knocked out and not have to do it embarrassingly to a lower league team

Totally this.

Take what we get and won't be bothered either way. I'd play the likes of Steele, Gibson, Love, Rodwell regardless of who we play, the least distractions the better. If we get a League 2 side at home then there will be more chance of progressing than a Man City away, but an extended cup run is certainly not a priority when we are currently one of the 3 favourites to drop in to the third tier.

Would not want a League 2 team at home. Will be a very low crowd, if we play someone like Luton they would be really up for it and there's every chance we would lose.

As the other poster said, WBA/Leicester away will give us a graceful exit

Tottenham away. A trip to Wembley and we can’t be embarrassed by losing to them (unless we got royally humped). If we played some in form League One or Two team, we’d probably lose.
