If we squeak through our game against Stockport we could face Fylde, not sure I can face going there again, 3 times is enough for anybody

For Fylde the 2nd leg is 3 days before they travel to Brisbane Road - a massive game for both,
and with there being a significant advantage in the play-offs in finishing 2nd or 3rd in the league as opposed to 4th or 5th (6th or 7th), ourselves getting something from our visit to Solihull on Saturday would also fuel Fylde's need to 'concentrate on the league' [that's irrespective of whether, or not, we beat Stockport tomorrow night]

There is no way a club is going to go soft in a semi-final with Wembley at stake... wishful thinking.

Well that's me buggered for the semi then if we get through. Having already arranged a holiday over in Cheshire to coincide with the Wrexham game, could probably have just about made Fylde away, but no way am I coming all the way back to Maidstone for a home first leg.

Nothing wrong with a bit of wishful thinking and some dreaming of seeing the Black & Amber at Wembley..........I believe there is still more chance of that then there is of us staying up! Beating the Orient first team in that final would have to be a fluke upset shock............... but hey, this is football, anything can happen.

Forgive me if this is a silly question but how come Fylde beat Barnet on penalties on Saturday but our game goes to a replay.

Sides can choose to do that if both agree and Barnet are massively behind in number of league games played

Can we beat Stockport at home? YES! Can we beat AFCfylde over 2 legs? ,YES! Can we win the trophy at Wembley ? YES! Will we, now that's a different question altogether but why not? COYS!

Whether we do or not, let's just enjoy trying. Not much to smile about this season. If anyone is smart enough to get us to Wembley it is John Still.

We'll probably never have a better chance, the other four clubs still in it all have one eye on promotion, obviously we don't have that 'problem'!
