Can't forget the excitement the FA cup generated last season, so lets hope for more of the same. Certainly a winnable game but as always we will have to be at our best and need Oulton to play.

I can't make this game, listen to Radio Diamonds or follow on twitter, so will be anxiously looking for result about 5.30!!.

Hoping the lads can draw on the confidence of last weekend's double win and produce another strong performance. Last season's FA Cup run was fantastic, be great to enjoy another one

Agreed. Dover and Barwell away best moments of supporting AFCRD. COYD.

Lots of positives to take from that, great defensive resilience at times. Bit of a rubbish first half but the second half I thought we played very well - Taylor looked very cool and composed for his goal and Nabil and Robbie proved themselves nuisances for the defence. On a negative note, how rubbish was that ref!!! Game's gone if you can't make a successful sliding tackle without getting a yellow.

That is possibly the worst yellow card decision we've ever seen at the dog and duck. Oulton's booking was a bit harsh also. 0arsons won around 6 free kicks during the match which did all seem to be fouls, but the bloke was so whistle happy, the slightest touch made him bring the game to a halt!

Absolutely fantastic result against a very decent side. We restricted Hornchurch to little or nothing and made the most of our opportunities generally. Can't ask for more than that.

I thought Brad Harris was immense but in fairness the whole team were excellent. Hope McNulty and Ashton are OK as that was a horrible coming-together.

The referee was very pernickety I thought and almost spoilt the game. Couldn't let play continue for more than 10 seconds without blowing up for something insignificant. Seems odd to be talking about the ref when we won the game.
They say we've lost our money we're not famous anymore.....
