Hopefully we'll be out of the Trophy come Thursday morning. I'm quite looking forward to Nuneaton away on 24th, so please Mr Hurst, don't ruin my plans.


We've got Jason Pearcey, number one, we've got the best team in the land...

I would think Wednesday will see our lowest away support for a competitive game for a long time.

Any player that he intends to start on Saturday should be left at home. (Plus I'm aiming to got Barnet away!)

For me the game on Saturday shows Hurst in his true light. Knowing Gateshead wouldn't agree to a replay, he should either have played a scratch team or played an attacking line up and gone for it excrement or bust if he wants us to progress.

Instead we got the usual shotless, goalless, cautious approach which benefits no-one. If ever there was a time to go gung ho it was Saturday. Now we have a game we didn't want or need and knowing him, he will pick a strong-ish side, looking to knick a result.

Which if it's as "inspiring" as it was on Saturday could mean we well end up with another stalemate over the 90 minutes

Assuming it does go to extra time and then pens even, our team won't be getting in to their beds until the early hours of Thursday

Given that we have an early kick off on Saturday, that is surely going to impact on our performance against the league leaders (if we do decide to make a game of it that is and don't just settle for another mind-numbing cancel each other out type of game)



A couple of good excuses for Mr Hurst if we lose on Saturday.

We're all well aware of how the majority of people on here (myself included) view this competition, but I think we're possibly doing a disservice to the FA Trophy in terms of what it means to the players and manager.

I recently read the part of Macca's autobiography where he spoke about Wembley in 1998, what it meant to him and his family and the impact it had on everyone at the club. You can't underestimate what it means to a manager and a squad of players to walk out at Wembley when you've spent your life dreaming of such an occasion.

I know it isn't the same as 98, I know we're 2 leagues further down & I know priorities are different, but it's a tad disrespectful to make comments like "he's after the Wembley money".

Perhaps a win on Wednesday will create a bit of confidence for Saturday,---- someone has to try and balance an argument
