Gravesend vs Slough

[BFR]

The trophy has drawn our clubs together. Do you still have Wilko playing between the sticks? I'm looking forward to our trip later in the month

[Harry J Allstars]

Full draw.

 

Gravesend V Slough

 

Burton Albion V Morecambe

 

Cambridge City or Crawley Town v Hucknell Town

 

Eastwood Town v Hereford United

 

Woking v Carlisle United

 

Altricham v Grays Athletic

 

Samford or Walton & Hersham

 

Canvey Island v Bishops Stortford

[Hempstead Gaz]

Great draw.

I predict Fleet

Crawley

Burton

Hereford

Woking

Grays

Walton

Canvey

for the quarter finals.

 

Some really interesting games left in this tournament.

If we get our act together, and stay lucky with the draws - who knows?

[Harry J Allstars]

SLough will be looking for a bit of cup recognition. Yeading knocked them out of the FA Cup Second Round. They then went on to play????????

 

Newcastle United.

[Harry J Allstars]

So were draw at home again in a cup competition?

 

If this continues we'll have to change our name to Arsenal.

[BFR]

I think you'll find we've already got plenty of recognition from cups this season Harry - we knocked out Walsall in the FA Cup after all. No doubt about it, we'll be underdogs going into this tie but will fancy our chances

If Wilkos in goal so do I. LOL Sorry Wilko I'm sure you'll see the funny side.

We will for this game, our other keeper is cup tied.

[Red Neck]

Last time we met was back in the Ryman, 2000/2001. They did the double over us, 2-1 and 2-0 respectively. We finished 6th, they finished 20th and were relegated.

GET RID OF DRURY

GET RID OF DRURY

WHY? He played well on saturday. Ok he had a rough first half, but then again so did many of the others. There is nothing wrong with him, he has great skill and ability, when he thinks about what he's doing. If you want to get rid of any one, make it Essandoh, the player who's not scored for 112 days!

[mikefleet]

Drury is lazy, i was watching him and throughout the game when ever he lost the ball he didn't try to get it back.

i have been brought up playing footy and i have always been told he i lose it go get it back. plus he trys too much cocky stuff that doesn't come off and i don't think he strung a pass together apart from the goal.

[Fleetbabe]

He's not the only one who doesn't try to win the ball back. On the other hand, he normally tracks back quite a lot, so you can't really call him that lazy.

 

But then again, that's just my oppinion.

What absolute b***ocks!!!

Drury is our most creative player by a country mile!!

[Richard C]

Drury has been and is at times - mostly - one of our best players.He has been superb in most recent home games havent been to many away ones recently - where by all accounts he shines even more?? I wonder why!!

[Stu M]

Isn't this the second round running we've been drawn out of the hat first? Maybe our name's on the Trophy!

 

 

PS. Ignore me - just seen it on th eother thread!

[Number 8]

I see an Omen there Stu...!! Let's hope you're right... guess we could do with the 50k+ for new investments...!!

[Hempstead Gaz]

Drury, along with Surey and Pullen are the only players good enough to play in the Football league.

[Guest]

Perhaps, but even then only likely to be subs rather than integral members of a League 2 side. I think Manny is another who could fit into a League side. Overall he is a much more rounded player than Andy Drury and game for game he tends to be more likely to deliver the goods whereas Andy often merely hints that he will. I would also consider Jay for higher status if I were a manager.

Indeed... he is the most profitable mid-fielder in terms of goals that GNFC have...!!
