An extra incentive to win this and then hopefully get a home tie in the next round.

We might be able to add a few onto the gate, but we shan't be able to do cheap entry or free entry, as the gate money is halved between the 2 teams. When we do a 'pay what you want' day, we have to make sure that we get extra sponsors in for that day, so that the total received is not too low.

Err...yes...but we haven't got to the 3rd qualifying round yet. How many chickens have I got. 6 when I last looked.

Agree with Rob - although Bodmin play several levels below us, their record this season is impressive, and they average just under 4 goals a game in the league. They have already won three FA Cup games this season, and this is probably their proverbial cup final.

Those of us who recall games at Wimborne, Frome, Minehead, Cirencester and such places will be wary of those chickens!

Opponents from a lower level caused us problems in the cup last season. I expect our preparation and attitude to be spot on for Saturday, in which case our footballing ability should make all the difference.

The same Conference Premier that we beat 3 teams from last season?

Saturday is going to be difficult, early goal important.

The gap between Bodmin and us is surely greater than between us and Conference Premier (we will probably be in trouble for not referring to it as the National League).

I recall that the season we lost to Wimborne they were in the same league as our reserves (shows how long ago it was) who beat them a few weeks later.

They are a step six side so four below us.

So, going the other way, it is the same as us drawing a Championship side.

Make of that what you will.

They drew 2-2 with Launceston tonight. Presume Andy Watkins went along to do some scouting. And to cheer on his local club.

We don't need to do any scouting, they are already at a disadvantage having played midweek. All we have to do is pass them to death.

You clearly didn't go to Thurrock, who we apparently failed to watch beforehand.

No I didn't go to Thurrock pretty much the same as the team.

Those of us who did are owed a run this season to at least the 4th round proper!

If it turns into another East Thurrock I'll be slightly peeved. Last year at least I was able to nip to the pub before the end, but this time I'm writing the Chron report. And I'm not drinking for September.

After a huff and puff win against Bodmin I want Bogner Regis away

Can we get Sporting Khalsa? If yes, Sporting Khalsa.

Gosport

I'm going for Hartley Wintney FC.

No idea who they are or where they are. Closer to Bedford than Bodmin I hope!!!

Chesham United

uxbridge

although I wouldn't be surprised to get Margate

Didcot Town

only two real surprises I can see Concord lost to Wingate and Finchley and Hayes lost to Poole
