Challinor Aims To Make FA Cup History For AFC Fylde

Back to back league wins have seen the Coasters start to climb up the Vanarama National League table, with attention now fully set on their match against Kidderminster Harriers stand in the way of the huge achievement and Fylde manager Dave Challinor is relishing the high-profile tie, writes Tom Feaheny.

“We are relishing this weekend’s game against Kidderminster. It’s important that we can switch between competitions and keep up the same level of performance," Challinor told the club's website.

“We have the same beliefs and the same philosophy regardless of what team we pick or the competition we are playing in. We will select a team that we think can beat Kidderminster.

Fylde have reached the first round now four times in the past six years, but have fallen at this stage every time they have got there so the aim is to go one better, something Challinor knows would bring a reward for the side.

“There is a big prize and opportunity waiting at the other side of the match and our sole focus now is on winning that game."
