The Magic Of The Cup: Sunday's FA Trophy Preview

25 Nov 2018 By Tom Scott

We've got two more games to bring to you today from the FA Trophy.

Gloucester City are ten games without win in the National League South so their cup tie today with Biggleswade Town could provide a welcome distraction.

Manager Chris Todd said the ambition the Tigers showed was the reason he joined the club and hopes to be the one that takes the club where they want to be.

"It’s a massively decent club,” he told The Local Answer. “They are so ambitious. It was so refreshing meeting the chairman and the board of directors.

“They are young people who want the club to do well, they are hungry for success.

“It will take time – we’re not in the stadium we want to be – but I’m happy they picked me to take the club forward.”

Elsewhere, Bath City travel to Horsham hoping to get into the hat for Monday's First Round draw.

The Romans' league form has stuttered in recent games and manager Jerry Gill will be hoping the club can emulate the run of the class of 2015 who reached the semi-final stage.
