And three meetings with them in the League Cup, all at home and all in recent-ish times: 2012*, 2020 and 2023. Also played them in the Full Members' Cup in 1991.

* I feel like this was Luke Chambers' début?

You're assuming a cup run would have a negative impact rather than a positive one. At a time when wins are scarce it could be that a run would help build a bit of confidence and feel good factor.

If we beat Rovers we're in the last 32. Only take a couple of kinder draws and we could fine ourselves into the 1/4's.


This. At the time of writing, we are still looking for a home win. We also need to get matchday action for the fringe players, and hopefully for 2 or 3 new incoming players. Several players in this team hasn't had a lot of match action so far:
Walton
H Clarke Woolfy Burgess Townsend
Mass Taylor
J Clarke Chappers Broadhead
Al Hamadi

Throw in 2 or 3 new players, and it will be very useful to have a few games to get them all sharp and gelled.

I know we have amazing history in the FA Cup but the reality is that this is immaterial to us with the stakes in the premier league.

Bow out early like normal without being humiliated would be ideal. If we fancied an FA cup run it should have been anytime from 2003 to 2021.


No, we need game time for fringe players. A cup run is exactly what they need.

Trust the process. Trust Phil.
