FA Vase 5th round match preview, 18th Feb.

The big day draws nearer...

... And it's time for the pre-match reflections of manager Wayne Thorne, who commented:

This is obviously one of the biggest games in the history of the club. The Larks travel to Herne Bay with a huge amount of pride, carrying the flag for the Western League. We have had our opponents watched and we know their strengths and weaknesses. They have lost only once in the league so far this season and will doubtless prove to be tough opponents, but the lads are ready for the challenge. We are not ready to give up on the Wembley dream just yet!

We are expecting large numbers of Larks supporters to travel over to Kent to spur the lads to a famous victory.

We can do this!

We have support from across the globe: from Barry [Crease] in Ghana: 'Good luck to all the lads and hope the travelling faithful have a great day out, with the right result at the end. Wish I was there to share the experience with you all but will definitely be thinking of you with my fingers crossed!'

Here's an idea of what to expect: match report and photos from Herne Bay's 4th round Vase tie last season: http://onion-bag.blogspot.com/2011/01/herne-bay.html

Any replay of the 5th round tie will be played on Saturday 25th Feb at Plain Ham.
