Bucks Believe As They Face Sell Out Home Crowd

That is the view of Hereford manger Peter Beadle, who hopes a sell out home crowd can bridge the divisional gap with a place in the FA Cup second round up for grabs.

One Non-League club will make it through but if the Bucks want it to be them then they will need to cope with a classic cup atmosphere.

Well over 4,000 will be packed in and supporting the Evo-Stik Southern Premier club, who of course used to play in the Conference before they were wound up.

Telford are travelling in great numbers - over 700 will be leaving Shropshire to make the trip to back their team.

Beadle, who has taken Hereford to back-to-back promotions, thinks his side can rise to the occasion.

“The atmosphere will be eclectic,” the manager said. “There is a feel that this is a big, big game and the fans will be right behind us. It will be raucous.

“It’s difficult for any club when it’s like that, Telford will bring great support too so the will be a proper Cup tie.

“What’s great is that both clubs will think they can win the game and because of that it should be a match to remember.”

Bucks boss Rob Edwards thinks his players can cope with what’s in front of them.

“I don’t think there is any doubt that we need to handle the occasion,” he said. “If we do that then we have got a chance.

“It’s about mentality but we feel we are prepared. The FA Cup is such a fantastic competition and we want to stay a part of it for as long as possible.”
