We have the team and the fans.  Nobody would expect anything from a NL Club.  Certainly not good football, teamwork and individual skill. Lincoln’ opponents underestimated them and played weakened sides. If we did progress, they might play kids against us as we are a lower league team. They might be in for a shock.  Who knows.

Winning cup games keeps that winning mentality. If we don't go up this season do we sack the cup off next year too? And the year after? In the FA Cup especially, you can earn an absolute fortune if you progress far enough or draw the right team in Round 3.

In terms of a dream draw I think you get a better cut of the gate so if a club our size got a top team away that would in my mind be better than packing out BP. Re the trophy it would be nice to go to a Wembley final as I’m sure if we’d already won promotion we’d surely p1ss it …….. wouldn’t we? 🤦‍♂️ "Crombie you would have got to that if you weren't such a fat ba%$@rd" - George Kerr, inspiration from the dug out 70s style   Logged Offline 5 0 0 Reply: 8 - 30 ginnywings September 16, 2021, 10:16pm Meths Drinker Posts: 24,280 Posts Per Day: 5.19 Reputation: 73.17% Rep Score: +85 / -32 Approval: +41,454 Gold Stars: 133 First team for the F.A. Cup, Fringe players for the Trophy. Would love a good F.A. Cup run. Could earn enough to clear all the historic debt if we are lucky.
