Away to Welling

Does anyone know when the Nuneaton fixture we were originally meant to play on January 12th has been rescheduled for? Or is it still to be decided?

please remind me what date this Welling fixture is going to be played?

edit don't worry! I found it, 12th January

400 mile round trip.

Uncertain whether i will make this one

Quoted from Chrisblor

Good draw, gives us a decent chance of progressing. Contrary to some opinions this is not a excrement tournament. There's decent prize money on offer in each round and we could get a trip to Wembley out of it.

not that bad to be fair! My only problem with It is we don't have a big squad and with injuries etc our first victim being colbeck. Although to be fair Scott said the other day that they are going to add a few to the squad in Jan if we are still in the cup.

I reckon Lutons name is on this trophy. Which could be good, distract them a bit and put all their efforts into getting to the final.

Their man to watch is mr hughes mason who was unlucky not to get a deal here

Only 10 miles away so worth a trip Been waiting for an away draw in this for a while.

£92,000 in prize money for progressing and winning the tournament, and a cheeky Wembley trip too. Certainly won't hurt us to go for this, and we've probably got depth in the squad that it shouldn't affect our league effort too much. We should be able to knock out these small southern teams with the reserves.

This game may not be confirmed yet to be played on the Saturday as a team called Erith FC groundshare with them, and they are at home. Welling were due to be away at Bath City.

The people who complain about this trophy are the same people who no doubt complained about the JPT but are happy to jump on the band wagon and buy tickets for the semi-final and final. They no doubt take the place of people who have been to several games during the season but when it comes to buying tickets for the semi, for example, are unable to travel to GY to queue and so miss out.

It's pathetic, a trophy is a trophy and we are not a club with such an illustriously decorated trophy cabinet that we can be turning up our noses at one.

We have proved ourselves in 97/98 that you can fight on several fronts (remember, we had decent FA and League Cup runs that season too) and York City proved it in the Conference last season. Not to mention, countless top flight teams etc etc (yes, they have humongous squads but that's not the point).

If you don't want to go to the FAT games, fine, but don't bore us with it on here before and after every single round. I'm happy we've progressed - it breeds a winning mentality after 10 years of a losing one, we get our share of the prize fund, it's a potential trip to Wembley and I love it when the Town win 4-0 no matter who it's against!

Whilst I agree with most of your points i doubt any Town fans have missed a final because they couldn't get tickets, I don't think we have sold out any of our allocations for the finals we have been in.
