Wimborne at home in next round will do nicely
Beat Maidstone Utd. 3-1 on penalties.

An absolutely stunning performance by the sounds of it, and as you rightly say Simon, history was made last night as this is the first time the club have been in the 1st Round Proper on consecutive season's. I'm sure having Ryan Brunt and Alex Mann in the squad now must help. Let's hope and pray their short term deals turn into permanent. You cannot let quality like that slip away. Like Yorkie I fancy Wimbourne away - at least we can travel to watch that one - COYMB

Oh I wanna dance with Will Puddy! Seem to recall similar penalty heroics in his last spell with us away at Eastleigh in the Trophy.
A result and performance like that is one of those that really gels the group, on to Dulwich and the next round!

4th Qualifying round next, not 1st round proper and we would not be allowed to travel to somewhere like Wimborne as things stand at the moment.

With respect to our next opponents we have yet to qualify for the first round proper this season, that would require victory in the next (4th qualifying round). Secondly, if we are drawn away to a lower level side government/FA present rules say away fans from step 2 level CANNOT attend.

We do seem to be getting carried away with ourselves and putting us through with a win guaranteed in the next round!
Huge strength of character shown to have conceded so late in the game and then succeed with a penalty contest that went to 8-9 and our keeper striking the winner... enormous credit to the team for that.
However yet again we were down to 10 men with a red card which means we let slip a game we were winning. We can argue (as Cook did in both cases) that they shouldn't have been red cards, but no escaping the fact that in both games we nearly owned our own defeat.

A real shame we can't attend no matter where we are next round.
I suppose 1 team in the north will get a bye with Macclesfield going under to. Would've loved us to get it.
