Dos never reached the FA Cup proper before he came to us, and then it was 4 times in 5 years!
Am I right in thinking that IF we get through and get a home draw, it will be the first FA Cup game played on a 3G pitch?

A number of FA Cup qualifying round games have been played on 3G (how about our own replay v Hemel !!) and last year Maidstone played a Round One tie on their pitch, v Stevenage.

In that case we need to win tomorrow and then the next 2 rounds to get to the 3rd round and have the first premiership side play in the FA Cup on a 3G pitch!

It hasn't been called the Premiership since 2007.
Hey, I think I'm really getting the hang of being pedantic!

That's some record by the great man - first round appearances against Notts County (2008), Hereford (2009), Kettering (2011) and Kidderminster (2013) and with us being in 2015 we're due another first round appearance if you note the pattern..
