A great draw on paper, but a word of caution. This crew won 3-1 at Concord in the last round. Hoping that was their swan song for now. Optimistic as always.
Time to concentrate of our real objective.

Agreed completely, Rob.
A tough, but enticing draw. At home, should be a good crowd again (400 plus at Earlsmead two seasons ago?). Looking forward to this one too. They ran us pretty close then and will have improved since.

Quite - as I recall it, they were probably the better team that day, with only one or two players not looking Step 3 quality - it's no surprise they won their league that season. With that said, I'm still pleased we've avoided a Step 2 team.

The last encounter was very tense and I think it fair to say we were on edge throughout and very relieved to hear the final whistle. For me two things stand out particularly namely the tremendous away support and, of course, Leon's wonderful goal. We still miss that guy.
It should be a great game next week deserving of a big turnout of HFC fans to hopefully out shout the R&D supporters and, fingers crossed, roar the Greens on to a profitable (in every sense) win.
