Or, if you are stuck in the past, we are playing away to Hereford United (who dissolved in 2014): https://www.daggers.co.uk/news/-KzxZyR6B-20cVHse4eQ

Wonder what Cockney Byrites and Dr Monkatron think of this.

[Cockney Byrites]

Playing a team in form, doing well in their league and in the cups. Very tough game.

[RayleighDagger1986]

It maybe tough but on paper it shouldnt be. We should have enough quality to come through this tie imo.

[Sagres]

Will be a very tough game, Hereford beat Eastleigh away in the FA Cup!!

[Dagdale]

Well that should be a good trip away always fancied going back here again although not the original cast (United), saw this lot take on a local side to me two weeks back at Potters Bar Town and from what I saw our boys should tank em, although they had a mare getting there, coach delayed no normal start and turned out a late night, their centre forward looks a threat though reminds me a bit of Denton at Halifax, should be an exciting day because they really get a good following at home and atmosphere should be good, I remember walking through a cattle market to get to Edgar Street!

Expect a handful of first team players and a defeat. See last season trophy run as an example. No thanks to this trip.

I remember walking through a cattle market to get to Edgar Street!

The cattle market was closed down 'Donkeys years ago' :D

[Diggerthedog]

Relocated to Romford on a Friday and Saturday night.

[DI Mike Dashwood]

Can't remember when we last played Hereford, but the market only properly closed around 2011 I think, so quite likely it was still there last time a lot of our fans visited. It's actually moved to some high tech out of town site now I think I remember reading.

Some mixed memories of trips to Edgar Street. A late loss which actually cost us the title on a Tuesday in April 2002, a thumping loss in maybe 2008 (4-0 was it), the roof being blown off and waiting five hours for a train back and then a brilliant 1-0 win in the sleet in about 2005 or 2006?? Doubt I will travel for this one though I have to say!!

All helps towards a new set of lightbulbs for the scoreboard

Or even help fund a proper Tannoy announcer

Since when are you supposed to understand an tannoy announcer
