Not a great draw. Now that the prize money has doubled, it'll be an enormous game for the club.

Highgate might surprise Stour, as they're doing very well at that level and have some decent players. It'll be a tricky tie for them.

Agreed this is a real banana skin tie. Paul Smith the Bromsgrove boss from last year has gone there as assistant, they have recruited well, and have a style I suspect our neighbours will find challenging.

Assistant? He's a very good manager. Very positive too.

Matlock have also had a poor start to the season. 4 Points from 5 games, so nothing to be fearful of.

Looking forward to the day out, but not the match. I'm not very confident.
