Tricky tie this, certainly one we can win though. The Fleet like to throw the cash around!

Ebbsfleet have been a bit of a yoyo side in recent years. Relegated 2010, promoted (with us) 2011, relegated 2013, in the Conf South play-offs last season and knocking on the door again this time (two places off). We’ve got a pretty good record against them, but they’re never easy.

Nice to have a home draw tho will be a tough game but I think on our current form we are more then capable of winning this, the team is great shape all the injuries seem to have gone so I don't see any reason why we can't make Wembley!!

What a coincidence! Ebbsfleet beat FGR on Sat in the last round and who are our next 2 opponents at home you've guessed it FGR then Ebbsfleet.

Ebbsfleet have improved recently now Jamie Day is in charge, but we are coming into form nicely and it should be an even match with hopefully
a decent crowd to watch the IRON get a step closer to the dream of playing at Wembley.

More non-Conference than Conference sides left in, after replays we'll be about 5th/6th highest placed team left in the competition. I haven't been to a cup final since 1994 League Cup Final. Let's make every effort to win this.
