If Rovers can overcome Aldershot in the FA Cup second round replay in ten days time, this afternoon’s third round draw at Wembley has ensured that their reward will be a home tie against Premier League side Wolverhampton Wanderers in the third round of the competition in the first game of 2010.
Following yesterday's 0-0 home draw against League Two side Aldershot Town in the second round of the FA Cup which ensured a replay in ten days time in Hampshire, Rovers at least found themselves in this afternoon's third round draw which handed Rovers or the Shots a home tie with Premier League side Wolverhampton Wanderers in the first game of 2010.
The replay of the second round game between Aldershot and Tranmere will take place on Tuesday 8th November at 7.45pm whilst the third round game should Rovers progress is home League One game against Leeds United scheduled for Saturday 2nd will be postponed .
Total Tranmere will bring you details of ticket and travel news for the replay as we get it during this week.

Would it be worth letting them have that many if only for the money???
I'm happy with the draw if we can get through!
if we do win the replay and it is a big if then i think we should give them the kop, they would certainly bring a good following and the extra revenue would be a help 4 us.
I think a good draw and if wolves put out a weakened team we could well have a chance!
We need the money though!
If our fans can't be bothered to outsing the Wolves fans that turn up then it's tough really isn't it.
We need the money at the end of the day.
Both teams are doing well defensively right now and no doubt it'll be a close game! It was mentioned apparently in the meeting between Cowsheds guys and PJ (the idea of giving us the cowshed, obviously not this game in particular) but what are the actual chances of it happening?
I'd much rather, we gave them the main stand and stick all you Main stand cogers in the lower kop (just joking about the cogers) and have a designated singing stand as the cowshed!
Probably very impractical but we all have theories!
Yeah they did try to get Cowsheds BUT that was only mentioned just a short while before the game, if we won the reply next week we'd have a month to sort out whatever we chose.
Would miss my pint at aldos at half time tho :-(.
