Best of luck to Cambridge United & Histon.

But not to Cambridge City. Boo!

 

[Neil Pickup]

41 v 5 would certainly be a tasty draw.

Personally, I want a home draw to any number of rubbish sides.

 

[marc71178]

My local team (ish, RC Warwick are closer and actually above them in the league, but don't get any of the local press because of the way the other team folded and ended up getting Kidderminster up into the league) are there.

Part of me wants them to fail miserably because IMO they get far too much press in this area, but if they draw Exeter at home, I'd expect to see Neil "son" Pickup at the game...

GO HISTON!!!

Played on the FM 2006 demo as them t'other day, as they didn't have a boss at the start.

 

[Simon]

a friend of mine played a season for the Leamington youth team and was on the verge of making their first team a few years ago, are they any good marc?

 

[marc71178]

AFAIK they're not as good as my home town side, but the press they get at local level here is disproportionate.

Put it this way, Warwick last year were challenging for promotion in the league above Leamington, but the Warwick paper was dominated by reports of Leamington games, with only a small bit about Warwick.

 

[Craig]

Didn't Warwick make a small fortune from the Ben Foster transfer from Stoke to Glazer's team?

Anyway, big match for Exeter.
