I absolutely believe we will be beaten. It won’t be an upset. Given that we are very unlikely to go up or down this season, a good cup run could be this season’s excitement.

Why are we unlikely to go up, or at least make the play offs, when we're only a point or two off 4th and apart from Ipswich the league seems v. poor.

Here is a fact. THD went to school in Bromley

Just bought my ticket, none of this "magic of the FA cup" stuff thank you very much Four Four Two!

I think many of us think we're going to lose this one.

And Bromley will be thinking they can win it.

So long as GC and his lads don't also think this, we might just pull off a sort of reverse surprise.

I mean we are actually better than them, aren't we?


Aren't we?

Aren't we?

We are.
If we play to our strengths and do not get involved in an arm wrestle of a match we will have better players, man for man, we will be quicker, better coached.

They will fight to the end for a replay, we need to come out hard and score early.

We are just outside the playoffs and everyone still thinks were gona lose. 4 nil gas,dont think we will have any problems sunday.

[Topper Gas]

I guess Nichols has been told he's not playing on Sunday?

[wilmslowgas]

Why the pessimism? We are a considerably better team. This should be a comfortable victory.

I think if we defend in numbers and get 11 men behind the ball and don't play any short passes we could win the match.
In other words play our normal game.

[Gasshole]

No guarantees with footy.
We could play really badly and win or we could play great and lose or any other combination of that. Pessimism can be a coping mechanism - preparing for the worst etc.
FWIW I think we’ll be in the hat on Monday.

[badengas]

We will win. Probably.

Must be tough not being able to afford to hire one!

Yeovil v Hartlepool called off 90 mins before kickoff - what a joke.

Can see the lowest ranked team Maldon & Tiptree's strikers Slew and Parish causing Orient problems tomorrow. Might be worth a pound or two on them getting a result.

Just a camera at the ground for flashbacks/replays of key moments on the BBC mate.

It’s too capture Tom Nichols 3 goals.

[oldgas]

I take it we can pay on the day. I was going to try and get there after work.

[Gasshole]

Hitting the sack fellas, got an early start tomorrow. Hopefully we can turn these Kents over.
