Make it a tenner a ticket and get a few in

Proper 2013/14 conference north fixture , will be a tough game despite their struggling league position and few divisions lower they always are tough games.

And we will be a tough game for them. It works both ways.

Gloucester 4th from bottom with 7 points from 9 matches. Only 2 points from 4 away matches.

TBH I don't think we could have got a much better draw to give us a great chance of getting to Round one. There was plenty of potential banana skins we could have got or away fixtures against fellow National League sides Harrogate and Carlisle spring to mind.

Not sure if anyone else feels the same but it's a bit of a strange scenario, given the reward of getting through to the first round is the potential of a draw against League 1 and 2 sides - the majority of which we've been mixing it up with on a weekly basis for the last few years!

Still, a good cup run can't be diminished given the experiences we've had in the past. I hope we take it seriously and can't imagine we wouldn't. There are a few good draws in the offing too should we get through, Sheffield Wednesday and Leicester as prime examples.

Home tie, lower league opposition, can’t ask for more. Play to our strengths and we should be in the hat for the first round proper….BUT it’s cup football …and all that goes with it.

Ever improving, hopefully we should beat these but it is football.
Need to get through to the 3 rd round and draw a Premier League side away for the cash.

As it's our anniversary season promotion. and a good cup run.
Look what we did under the 2Ds in the bottom four at Xmas and went on a run hardly dropping any points winning playoff final at Burton.

For me a good cup run can bring in much needed revenue and this is an excellent chance to progress.
