History boys Khalsa eye third qualifying round
Sporting Khalsa are revelling in the chance to make the FA Cup third qualifying round for the first time in the club's history.
The Midland League Premier Division outfit play their fourth game in this season's competition at Basford United – one division above them – tomorrow.
Khalsa boss Ian Rowe saw his side triumph 3-2 over AFC Wulfrunians in the last round and is looking forward to the clash with Basford.
"We've got nothing to lose, most of the smart money will be on Basford, we certainly aren't going to go in as favourites," said Rowe. "I know we will make a good account of ourselves. It is a chance to make history for the club, it's the best competition in the world and a pleasure to be involved with."
Chasetown will look to continue their impressive FA Cup form as they face Hinckley AFC at home.
With comprehensive victories over Grantham Town and Evesham United in the previous rounds, Chasetown can make it three consecutive wins in the competition at The Scholars Ground tomorrow.
The visitors have won five of their opening seven games in the Midland League Division One though, and have beaten Redditch United and Walsall Wood in the FA Cup.
Chasetown boss Dave Stringer is aware of Hinckley's threat and stressed his side need to find a cutting edge.
He said: "We envisage a tough game – our form has been good but our results have been indifferent. We are playing well enough but we need to start converting our chances
."
