CANV EFM Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 dont think it will be easy at all.. slough are doing well this season and will be a real handful , they will be well up for this game and will fancy their chances..rightly so..if we'd got this draw at home then i would have felt a lot happier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pages Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 I think im right in saying that Slough got relegated a few seasons back from the Conference, not to sure though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merv Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 Get real! This is the FA Cup. No such thing as an easy one. Ask Port Vale, Wigan or Northampton if you don't believe me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotten Johnny Shawcraw Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 You are right in saying that Liam, but they've been in steady decline ever since, you lot don't seem to confident by the sound of it, making your excuses already, comparitively this is an easy draw St Albans think Sudbury away is and they're unbeaten so far this season!

Phil Old Boy Posted October 14, 2002 Author Share Posted October 14, 2002 Where did you come back from, RJS. You just can’t keep away can you and you have not been missed! No excuses being made just an air of being cautious. It would be foolish not to approach the game without being in such a frame of mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotten Johnny Shawcraw Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 And where have you been hiding POB? Don't suppose you've been missed much either, and which ever way you want to dress it up it just shows a lack of confidence in your team, you could have got Yeovil away.

Matt H Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 Slough Town - Potential Banana skin, but also a potentially easy tie to hopefully land another big Div 2 club! Matt CIFC <img src="/forums/images/icons/grin.gif" alt="" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFR Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 As a nosey Slough fan I thought I'd have a little look to see what you guys are making of us, and I wouldn't have said we'll be an easy path into the 1st Round draw for Canvey. We've come through four rounds to get this far and we won't be giving up in a hurry. To the guy who said Slough were relegated from the conference a few years ago, well done for knowing your history, but I bet you didn't know that the season we went down we finished 8th in the conference and made the FA Trophy semi-final. Yes we're not as strong as we once were, but this is the best cup run we've had for several years and there's no way we'll be pushovers. Had we been drawn away to Canvey I personally think we'd struggle to compete with you, but at home I really expect it to be a good match. I hope you guys can bring a decent crowd so we can get a big match atmosphere. See you on the 26th Come on you Rebels! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TACKLE1000 Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 I've always enjoyed games against you lot. Generally seem like a good bunch and i'm sure that is still the case. Still remember coming to your place for what seemed like our 100th game in 99 days two seasons back. Anyway see you there. P.S. Is the bar still tiny?

Merv Posted October 15, 2002 Share Posted October 15, 2002 We're looking forward to coming to your place and I can assure you that although fans may post messages that display lots of bravado, Jeff King will be giving you utmost respect. It's been stated on this board before that there is no such thing as an easy tie in the FA Cup. Any chance of a decent set of directions to your place from the M25 anti-clockwise. Autoroute gives so many alternatives, some local knowledge would be useful. BTW The size of our bar will only be important if you think you may be coming back on the Tuesday night for a replay. I think we can safely give the bar staff the night off as we intend to do the job on the Saturday (there, that's the bravado bit!). Seriously, let's look forward to a few ales, a good game and best of luck (and £20,000) to whoever goes through to the next round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rotten Johnny Shawcraw Posted October 16, 2002 Share Posted October 16, 2002 Oh come on Georgie, that's not very nice is it? I mean what have the good folk of Yorkshire done to deserve Merv? For anyone else that wants to know it's not exactly the most difficult ground to find, M4 off at Junction 5, follow the A4 towards Slough town centre, over the roundabout at the A412 junction then IIRC it's the next right, it is signposted, into Wexham Road and about a mile up on the left hand side, hey presto! Oh one more thing, come on you rebels!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
