    Ok, this was the only team who I was worried about. If we beat them over 2 legs we should piss the final against one of the others

    Disappointing tie to be honest, also I think this would have made a good final.

    Made worse by the fact we are likely to have 2 tough cup games during a glut of tough league games. Would have been nice to play one of the lower league sides, put them to the sword in the first leg (hopefully) and rest a few for the second leg. Not likely now. Unless we are put to the sword by Harrogate

    Not sure why it needs to be 2 legs either. Lower league clubs already have fixture pile ups at this stage of the season due to postponed games so a 2 leg semi final doesn't help.

    I'm not sure a fixture pile up is the worst thing for us. Easily our best run of results/performances came over Christmas when we were just playing every couple of days, we've gone off the boil since it's gone back to one game a week!

    So if we get past the might of Harrogate, we'll play a part-time team at Wemberley.

    Let’s hope all those potential opponents can field full teams, a lot of people do building work in May,, and big Dave will be saving for his holidays.

    Maybe so. Slocombe, McCrory and Booty back in contention would certainly help.

    I'm starting to believe that you're not keen on the FA Trophy fatlad.

    Too right Sinbad, Forest fans have got enough to take the piss out of us without a potential big Wembley final against....Royston, or any of those others that no f00ker has ever heard of.

    That’s aside from fixture congestion, injuries etc.
