CRIKEY!
We're shi**ing ourselves! :lol:

They recently got beat by Bideford 4-0 too...
Not claiming you should be shitting yourself as an on-form Conference team is clearly the favourite against an on-form Southern League team, however the game at Bideford was in a tinpot cup and we had eight changes, including five debuts and three Under 18s. :skill:

Apparently you had a scout at the game yesterday, though Swindon hardly put up much opposition for us to beat.

Only a fool would take any professional opposition lightly, especially one which is in such a good run of form, and I don't think our current management team are fools. I'm sure you will get the respect you deserve from the people who matter even though, as you have said, we will clearly be favourites. As we know from when we've turned over a couple of football league teams as a non-league side, the favourites don't always win in the cup!

And rightly so, we are a professional team. We have a management team that do things right.
Its the FA Cup and i'm sure our management team won't be thinking this game is easy.

Nothing has ever been easy for us, but enjoying recent times.

Approx 210-250 Barrow AFC fans for the long journey south is fantastic support. Looking forward to this.
