Against a team a couple of steps below in the football pyramid we would be expected to win, but we all know this was a potential banana skin.
We certainly missed a few goals with several chances spurred. Our opponents certainly tired towards the end probably not used to the pace.
Nice money into the bank and hope for a favourable draw in the next round, home against lower league opponents would be nice!
Hopefully we might have a few less injuries in the next couple of weeks.

Today's result looks even better when you consider that seven NS teams have already been knocked out by teams in lower leagues and five of those were to teams two leagues below. As for the next round, how about bringing a certain Ryan Gondoh to Beveree?

He's bound to score to knock us out.

Beckenham Town at home would be a great draw for us, have we ever played them as I can’t recall we have had?

Haven't we played them in the London Senior Cup?

They knocked out Dartford at Dartford so maybe not an easy draw?

I suppose the draw is still regionalised so it won't be Oldham Athletic at home!
As ever, the head says home fixture against lower league opposition, the heart says away fixture at a new ground!

Everyone seemingly wanting a smaller side at home.
Not good business sense.
Big club with large support away from home, and take the split of the gate, that's what makes sense, also the excitement to create an upset.
That's what dreams of the FA cup are!

It's good business sense in terms of getting into the 1st round and potentially getting an even bigger gate/TV money etc.....

Boooooring haha.

Torquay away, nice split of a big gate, and winnable with their place in the table.
