Not much for us to worry about.
It must be hard living in taunton where the only bit of excitement is the launch of a new tractor ;)

Talking to those at the club yesterday we'd got 210 names on the list so far for the 300 tickets available.
I think some Barrow fans who live down there had also purchased some tickets at Taunton's home game yesterday seen as it's not segregated next week.
However our tickets still hadn't arrived at the club so its probably just as well they did!!

Some on here seem to think we are some kind of billy big shots now, just seen Bangladesh turn over billy big shots England, going to Taunton might not be an easy task as some think its going to be.

I'll be surprised if it's not a tough match.

We will go about things properly though and respect them. He's already watched them in their replay I think and someone will again no doubt in the week. They are in the league or two below Chesham and we went there in the trophy with a poor side and won comfortably..even McConville scored!

I'm looking forward to it, and at least I know tickets exist having seen them on twitter, nice touch they've got their 81 side on them who got to the 1st round last time.

We won't get 80 more applications by Monday so everyone will get tickets and with odds and sods picking up tickets from them will have around 250 there. A decent effort by all concerned.

On the other hand, they have drawn and won against Hemel Hemstead who are at the same level as were Wealdstone when I saw us lose there! Having said that, this Barrow team is stronger than that one.

I expect a tough game. To be honest I'd be happy with a draw. They'll be a shadow of a team coming up to Barrow on a Tuesday night. Then use the replay to give some fringe players a run out. Draw 1-1. Win the replay 4-0.

past games mean nothing - if we give them the respect they deserve and play to our abilities we should win. As I put earlier Taunton drew with North Leigh 2-2 in a league game last month. Eastleigh stuffed North Leigh 5-0 in the last round and we know what we did to Eastleigh yesterday. If we have the right attitude we could win 4 or 5 nil, be could just as easily scrape a scrappy 1-0 or 2-1 win. Go with the wrong attitude we could draw or even lose.
