Well here we go On our FA Cup journey again, the one competition that really can bring big cash rewards to clubs like ours. Get lucky with early round draws and getting teams who we should beat, followed by a top club In the latter rounds Is what we must hope for.
Our Jamie Is doing his own style match report On behalf Of the forum for this game, but we hope all those who go to the match, will post their views.
I think we know now that we won't see any changes to the team selection, unless there has to be any, so lets hope for a good game and I think we will win by four goals to one.

Again this is a game we `should` win and to be honest I think we will win this match (4-0) but Evesham wont come here to roll over and die, we need to do the job and get the game over with as quick as possible.
I am not used to Torquay being someone elses biggest game in history let alone two teams in a space of a couple of weeks.

Good point Joe and I never stopped to consider, that we were the two clubs biggest games In their history, I do feel after the way we blew Weymouth away so easily that we won't need to be concerned about who will win this game.
Yes they will come here and give all they have got, but our players skill, plus their extra fitness, will win through at the end Of the day.

Last year we were Bashleys biggest game;
and yes I think our fitness will tell against Evesham and I think we will win the match comfortably in the end, but they`ll be up for it and have nothing to lose and also because they won against Rushden too which is petty good.

Looking forward to what should be an enjoyable game against lower league opposition in a classic FA cup tradition. Yes, Buckle will play his strongest side but he may have some selection dilemmas! Will he bring back Carlisle? Hargreaves picked up knock according to his blog, will he be o.k. ? Will Sills be 100% fit - if he isn't maybe Thompson should be dropped to bring in Green and Benyon in a 4-4-2 formation. The speculation of a supporter is never done I'm afraid  The way we are playing I would expect a good win in game number 13 of our unbeaten run. |

If you didn't know, Evesham are 17th in the league that Tiverton and Bashley contest in! I think/hope we're at full strength again on Saturday, and I think we will win 3 - 1. 2nd round draw: Curzon  |

About to leave for the game very soon, boy wonder TUAFC1 has given In to the call Of playing football again and has signed for two teams this week. One Is In the South West Peninsula League and the Other In The South Devon League. So will have to find someone to stand near, who can put up with my chat  Looking forward to a good game with plenty Of goals and I have no worries that our team will not be In the next round draw. |

Fantastic away contingent from Evesham today - good 600 or so. We're attacking the away end.
I'm very hopeful of a result, but anything can happen on days like this!

Some shameful "simulation' from Evesham in the first half - their keeper went down like he'd been hit by a sniper when TT caught him, but he was up to take the free-kick. same with a couple of other incidents before h/t. It certainly looked like it would boil-over at one point, but credit to the ref, he hasn’t been tricked and has kept-up well with the general play.
Great work from Carayol down the right. Roscoe is also causing some problems. They look dangerous on the break and far from overawed. This game is far from safe and there is a swirling wind and that could cause some mistakes.
It is often the case that a part-timer scores his best career goal in this situation, so hopefully we can score early in the 2nd half. They've got a 'Celtic huddle' going-on as we wait to kick-off.
COME ON YOU YELLOWS!!!!!!!

Firstly sorry If you have had problems getting On the forum, Proboard severs went down, but I hope Its fixed now.
Jamie Is doing a a match report On behalf On the forum, so I will just post my views.Good turn out Of Evesham fans who made some good noise and added to the atmosphere.
As soon as the ref blew to start the game, boo's rang out around the ground, Not sure If Its normal to have a one Min's silence before kick off, for remembrance Sunday, but the fans felt we should have had one.
I thought the Evesham players looked like they had turned up for a Sunday pub game, they did not seem up to It to me, the first half was a nothing half, not much good play and not really great to watch.
Desane did cut In and have a good shot from outside the box, It bounced In front Of their keeper, who did well to say It. Only one more shot went toward the Evesham goal, but It was deflected wide Of the right hand post.
Our goal from a corner was a trademark Sills goal, rising In the box to glance the ball powerfully Into the net. The Evesham players were at times a bit Of a disgrace, falling downing and rolling around far to much, must have been watching to many Prem games.
They did have two good chances In the first half, one a downward header, that Bevan did well to save and then a long drive from out side the box, that had Beven at full stretch, to keep out. The game looked like It would boil over In the first half, Sills always wanting to get Involved with things he did not need too.
Second half did not start a lot better, but improved as the half wore on, we scored a second , but It was given Off side, we also had a good shout for a penalty, for hand ball.
They did get one for hand ball and you just felt It was going to be one Of those days, but their player put It well wide. Our second goal was a shot that defected up over their keeper, who was going down to make the save. We were well On top from then On and never In danger Of losing the game.
