The FA Trophy and regaining our league status are not mutually exclusive events. We can do both and a few wins in the FA Trophy doesn't mean our league position will be screwed up. This. I really don't get people who say (that at any level in any non-collision sport) professional athletes can't play 2 games a week and/or 8 games a month. Yes injuries may happen, but we keep hearing about players not being 'match-fit'...well, surely they need a certain number of matches to retain this 'mythical' match-fitness? What about tennis players who despite playing all over the globe in any month-long period then have to be on court 7 times in 14 days for up to 5 hours at a time to win a Grand Slam event? Don't forget the cups take priority over league matches with regards to fixtures. Other clubs have warned us about Sat Tues Thurs Sat fixture pile ups. Play a complete second string. Get them a match or two and get knocked out early, let the other teams play 4 matches in 8 days. Don't forget, by Dec 7th last season no team had played more than 22 games in the league and the average was 21 - this season we'll have already played 25 and the average will be much higher. We're not Arsenal, and even Arsenal shouldn't be Arsenal in terms of picking cup teams....success breeds success and cup games bring a different mentality to both players and fans - especially at this level! I cannot see a single bad thing about a First XI playing in this competition. What time is the draw? Can't wait, bring it on! Live stream here:

In all seriousness, Gloucester, Forest Green, Weston or Bath would all be decent draws.

Would've preferred to be away.
But not a bad draw to be honest.

Over the moon with that draw. Should be a good game as I expect either side would bring a few for their first competitive game at the Mem.
