The Planters go into the next round on Saturday in Leicestershire.

All five Norfolk teams progressed through the last round, although City have yet to play joining the fray in the third round proper in the new year.

We are the last remaining side from the Thurlow Nunn and the lowest level team in the FA pyramid, so can be proud of our efforts so far. On Saturday we travel to Barwell from the Evo Stik Northern premier league a tough game but the boys are without doubt good enough to progress.

All Norfolks other sides also have difficult ties against teams from a higher level the Conference North. Kings Lynn are the only side at home, after thumping Boston Town in the last round. The Linnets probably have the best chance of progressing, looking at the Conference North league positions Hednesford Town .

Dereham after a great result in the last round beating St Neots from the Southern Premier after a replay, have the toughest tie against Boston United currently sitting seventh in the Conference North.

Our good friends from Wroxham are on the road at Leamington.

Extremely hard games for all sides but at the end of the day it's eleven versus eleven.

The Conference teams come in at the next round so potentially the winners of this round have very big games ahead, talking to some of our supporters if we win they fancy a weekend away at Torquay we can still dream.

Come on you dirty greys!!!
