A winnable game, we don't want a replay.

Just nice to get a home tie, on a Saturday at 3pm. We only need to play the way we did against Bedford and we will be in the next round draw. They are all tough matches at this stage, so a good crowd will be needed for the 12th man. The FA Cup is a special competition and we all want the chance to get a decent tie against a 'big club'.

The money starts to get serious now too, with already scooping £9425 and beating Ashton would earn another £7500... Nearly £16500 can't be bad

By the way, what ever happened to the electronic score board the club had after the last cup run after Dover?
