Histon have only scored 3 goals in 9 league games and conceded 28. They play with a lot of youngsters, but don't be too fooled they did beat us last season in the SL Cup at the D & D.

But a real chance for us to get back on track and with another home tie (v Coalville) for the winners.

Normally I dont think we would be too bothered but at the moment we could do with a run in this competition.

With the two players picking up injuries on Saturday we may be struggling to find enough fit players for this game. I wouldn't be surprised if we have to visit Bridge Rd the following Tuesday after a goalless draw.

Sub 300 crowd almost guaranteed given the competition and recent performances

With 57 players registered for the U21's it should be that much of a problem.

[Formic]

Hopefully the extra £1 on the entrance fee we are paying this season, coupled with another good FA Cup run, will allow us to get in a couple of players with at least a step 4 pedigree. It might have been tricky to find such players who weren't cup tied for the FA Cup, but it won't be an issue for the FA Trophy.

You haven't got a link to that (just interested, presumably that includes the Under 18s and some of the first team).

Ash Deeney added to the squad ready for the game, alongside Jason Lee. If Sam Brown's out I think we'll see both of them start.

I understand Sam will be back, he was just unavailable for the last two matches.
