FA Trophy opponents

The worst possible draw would be away to a team top of Step 3,unbeaten this season and a local derby, and with Bruno suspended.

Oh dear😂😢.

As tough a draw as we could have had but, if we keep playing the way we are, a surprise might be on the cards.

Harborough play Altrincham in FA Cup this weekend let's hope they draw and also get a good tie in next round to take their mind off us.

We've been there before and won. Tough ask but we'll try.

Had a feeling this might be the draw! I'm excited personally as it's one of those unbelievably rare Diamonds games that I can walk to being my local club, but as tough as we could have had, they are unstoppable at the moment and could be on the cards for another big FA cup run as well.

But it's a nothing-to-lose game and this group has really started to pull together so I'm sure we'll give it a real good, and who knows,Harborough might be so focused on league and cup that they'll be off their game
