...as a Leeds fan, you lot really are hitting an exceptional vein of form. This isn't going to be just some run of the mill cup tie where it's all about 'enjoying the day' for you, the more I read up on your team the less I like. I see you have Oxford on Saturday after last nights win. Another good conference side are they not? Win that and you're boys will be on fire leading up to the Leeds match. I'll take a sneaky 1-0 win right now.

Well jimbo, i think it has all the makings of a really good old fashioned slog. The biggest problem your players will have is the tightness of the ground and every tom, thingy and harry breathing down their necks, along of course with our players who will be shutting you down at every opportunity. That said, you will of course posess that certain quality which is what we have to contend with and counter. Win, lose, or draw i expect our boys to give it thier all, particularly ex Leeds lad Damien Reeves who will no doubt be praying for a start. I am sure it will be a great day, certainly our biggest yet and one that should really put us in the limelight.

There's a few grounds in league 1 which leave alot to be desired, and certainly last season (our first in the 3rd tier ever) every teams fans were breathing down our neck, most away games seemed like a cup tie to be honest so I'd hope the players are prepared for this. But even without the quality if you get on top of us, maybe sneak an early goal I suspect a shock on the cards. It won't be easy for either team, glad it's on tv as it should be great entertainment, 3rd in the conference is a great achievement as that league has improved so much in recent years. I have no doubt you will be joining us in the championship in a couple of years ;-)

Some very kind comments there and i would love to see them come to fruition. But, being just a village team means a little patience may be required from us.

My best advice (and I shouldn't be saying this!) is to go all out attack against us. Yes, you might concede as we are lethal going forward. But we are dire at the back, should make a high scoring entertaining game! If you just sit back and defend then eventually we'll punish you, I don't know how you'll play but the form you're in I reckon you'll go for it.

Well Jimbo, some interesting thoughts there. For what its worth(probably very little) i reckon the ball will be in the air so much that your defenders will be suffering from builders neck (no pun intended) and any balls on the ground will be quickly stamped out, or will bobble away on the tufts of grass and clods of earth. I also anticipate a lot of high and dipping crosses into the box, the only question i guess, is how LUCKY IS LUCAS |
