Number 51 for me if Mason is still around
BOREham Wood
Swansea v Albion
Oh well, there?s always the league to look forward to
Boring, but a possibility, only a possibility, though, of getting through to round four!
We need to focus on the relegation battle and trying to get the ball over the half way line.
Glad we didn?t play Weston Super Mare as there could have been MOMENTS
It will be interesting to see what side we put out for that one, but depends on if we still have the same manager as now.
In an ideal world, I would love us to have a cup run but the reality is that the lack of depth in the squad and our likely position in the table means that we have to concentrate on the league and avoid potential injuries. Even if we did rise through the rounds we'd eventually be beaten by the quality of the Premier League clubs so sadly not worth the risk or effort- other than giving some of our youngsters an opportunity of course.
