Good chance to progress, but would have liked a home tie.

I always want a decent away day. Braintree and Chesham are not
Edit: just checked and I'm working

It's a good draw. Chance to progress with £41k prize money. Whoever wins the replay will be thinking the same

I'm hoping for Chesham as I've not been there and its always good to do a new ground. Braintree has the benefit of being reasonably near and the Orange tree pub close to the ground,a pub the Stones barmy army usually take over for the day. Hopefully it will be on the Saturday and not moved to Sunday to keep the TV company happy.With £41,000 for the winners it's not a bad draw and it's money we need to make up for the fact another home Saturday game will be switched to midweek with a lower attendance costing us dear.We may also by then have learnt we've drawn Torquay away in the FA Trophy🤣

I'm hoping for Chesham ... We may also by then have learnt we've drawn Torquay away in the FA Trophy🤣 1) Chesham would be a chance to avenge our 4Q 3-1 defeat there in 79/80 (the season after our Charlton tie & the season before our Gilligham triumph) 2) It will be away to Chelmsford in the FA Trophy - We're at the Gulag two days later |

Could be a cunning move to loan Ogo Obi to Chesham? A useful spy in the camp? Presumably, not allowed to play against us.

I hear the club are applying to have their name changed from
Maidstone United to
Maidstone United (A)

That was just an awful day Kinda legendary now, I guess. It was preceded by a 4-0 away loss at Hastings. Over 5 days, I drove 600 miles to watch us lose 11-0😲 |

Sounds like a terrible experience for you.
Explains a few things.

FA Cup involvement means Truro will now have to travel up and play us on a Tuesday!
