Without knowing the injury situation, as disappointing and safe lineup..
3 most creative midfielders in Mehew, TOE and Bradbury on the bench.

Lost 4-2 on penalties.  

Looked like our plan was to make sure we were still in it at half time then go for it in the second. If so, we executed it flawlessly.

We gave it a real good go away to the second best side in the competition, and after Chesterfield played the kids, the highest ranked team remaining.

Can’t be disheartened with that, and an away end of 82 certainly gave their all as well. Memorable day, if with a slight tinge of what might have been.

Shame not able to join the likes of  lesser lights Hendon and Coalville in a open next stage but Pens are Pens - some you win, some you lose.

1st half Bromley worked a nicely taken goal and had the majority of possession. We sat deep, sat off them, were limited going forward - not looking like scoring.The sideways pass from both sides was king to be honest. At half time the one positive was to still be in the game at 0-1 as Bromley looked like they could go up a gear in the final third.

2nd half - a complete change. the handbrake was released as they say and we were positive and had more drive in our attacking play. Freddie Grant and Tyreke Johnson linked up really well on the left and caused Bromley some problems and when Fas equalised, it was well deserved.

Really good Chippenham support there. Think it surprised the hi-vis special security brigade who welcomed us as only one turnstile (the smallest i have ever come across) was open.All in all despite the penalty defeat - a good away trip.

Bromley home to Aveley… well what a chance that was!
