FA Trophy 2nd Round

[GlenSTFC]

With the draw tomorrow and clubs at step 2 entering who do we all want? Beaconsfield are still in as are a couple of other local teams. Ebbsfleet again anyone?!

[Nathan]

Ebbsfleet surely enter in the next round, unless that's changed for this season?

Ah yeah you could be right, I save them for round 3!

[Rebellier]

Maybe Dartford?

Maybe Merthyr?

Any club not in our division, at home preferably or away to a small club within an hours travelling distance.

[Rebellier]

Farnborough home. Damn.

[GlenSTFC]

Terrible draw and a tough one at that.

[Curtis]

It will be interesting to see if Kuhl & Pruti will be eligible to play.

Same with George and Dom.

Good to get a home draw and we should get a decent crowd.

I doubt it’ll be a decent crowd, remember it’s all pay and Farnborough aren’t an attractive draw plus don’t bring many away. Maybe around 600?

[Nathan]

Thank heavens they did away with replays

Winners get £2250 - losers £575.

[GlenSTFC]

You’re looking at the 2nd Qualifying Round prize money. 2nd round proper winners receive £3,750.

Ok, Wow - all that extra money will allow the club to bring in so many more top flight players - if we win!

If we were still in the FA Cup I would be all for not taking the FA Trophy seriously, but without the distraction of that I would like to see us win this one & see who we get next.

It’s not unknown for a club at our level to go all the way to Wembley….. & the 1973 Wembley appearance was the best day in the clubs history.
