Fulham Rebel Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Very tough draw (just like the last one), they have scored 7 in two league games this season, we will need to be better than the last time we met. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Looks like potentially one of the toughest draws we could have got, as they are going very strongly in the S&W and knocked us out last year. But then Margate was a tough one on paper too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently lying in second place with two games in hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 But the opposition they play week-in week-out isn't at as a higher level as we play now. We beat North Greenford 7-1 last season, Chalfont 5-1. Could have got a Weymouth or a Poole away for example. Were at home. Let's look forward to it after the surprise win at Margate! Yes, it will be tough but being here is a bonus! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C'est la vie Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Obviously Merthyr are flying this year but I fancy us to turn them over. I thought we were unfortunate the previous time we played them and didn't impose ourselves on them. I know it will be played on a Saturday but still a fair old trot for them and could play into our hands. Lets be honest, most of us didn't fancy our chances against Margate but look what happened there! As I've said before, when we play with a high tempo and intensity there aint many teams that can handle us. COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GlenSTFC Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Yes tough fixture as they're flying in the league below and scoring nearly 3 goals a game. Also decent support averaging around 400 although I doubt they'll bring many considering the distance. But we beat a top side in Margate and we're at home so you have to fancy your chances.

A Rebel and a Saint Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 I see Beaconsfield are supposed to be at home to Leighton that Saturday. Leighton also have a replay tomorrow night which will determine if that game is going ahead. Something will have to give and one game would have to be on Sunday should Leighton not progress in the Trophy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Baker Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 By all accounts we get preference for the Saturday, so I would guess if Leighton go out they will look to play the league game on the Friday night rather than the Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Rebel Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Think the crazy turnaround last season at least gives an extra edge to the game to motivate us. No reason we should fear anyone in a 1 off game especially 1 from level below but we will have to play pretty well to progress Midweek replay doesn't appeal so hopefully get job done at home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlenSTFC Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Think it'll be a very tight game with one goal between the sides. Could be a high scoring game as both sides know where the net is, although our defence is a little more leaky! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irishadrian Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Tough draw but on our day we need fear nobody. Lower league or not they defeated Cirencester Town from our league last Saturday The same Cirencester who ended our FA Cup hopes last season Also they have a reputation for being a bit "uncompromising" but we can look after ourselves so I look forward to this one.
