It was always going to happen after waiting 20 years to play them wasn't it. Macc travelling to Aldershot for a game on Wednesday, whilst we have a free week. Hopefully they will rest a few on Saturday with them being genuinely in the hunt for promotion

Worth noting incidentally that the Third Round of the FAT is on 24 Jan 2015. So, whoever wins next Saturday, unless they then get knocked out in the following round we will not be playing at Macc that day and it will be a Tuesday later in the season. Which would be a pain.

Quite. I imagine the 123 years they spent in Non League football before the short interregnum of finishing 18th in the 4th tier for 10 years running means that they are now far too big to be arsed with the Trophy.

They won the first one, for heavens sake.  Do they have no respect for their own history?

On the other hand, if they field a weakened team, it will be like playing a team from a lower league.  Oh dear!

If they have any respect for history and tradition they will play a full strength team to get the bragging rights against their biggest rivals.
