FA Trophy semi-final first legs (Saturday, 13 March):

Kidderminster Harriers v Stevenage Borough
Salisbury City v Barrow/York City

FA Trophy semi-final second legs (Saturday, 20 March):

Barrow/York City v Salisbury City
Stevenage Borough v Kidderminster Harriers

I  cannot see how Barrow or Salisbury would beat York so my money would be going on a repeat of last years final - Stevenage V The Yorkists. 

Unlike last year York could win it this time around.

Opinions? (apart from the one that says we could've got this far!)

It depends how seriously York and Stevenage take it. Barrow certainly have it in them to pull off a good result, their record in big Trophy and Cup games over these last couple of years is quite good. To be honest I'm surprised they're so far down the league, but they do just lose too many daft games.

Either way though, I'm backing the team at home for the second leg in both ties, making it Stevenage vs York/Barrow in the final.

If Barrow do make it to wembley then they are going to have one hell of a squash to get their league games in.  They've played 28, the same as Jester - 7 fewer than Ebbers Utd.

They would be dicing with almost certain relegation if they added in 3 more games PLUS the inevitable distraction of a wembley final.  I don't think they've got the legs / squad depth to handle it.

Kiddie / York final ...Stevenage too concerned with league this year and will bottle it.
