    The Chairboys welcome The Amber and Chocolates to Adams Park for their second ever visit the last time was nearly 23 years ago when we were non league a game that we won 4-1 in the GM Vauxhall Conference most of our previous meetings were in the Isthmian League.
    Matty is likely to make some changes but probably not too many as the chance of playing the big boys beckons.
    I will not be at AP for this one but I will be taking the action in on Wanderers TV<cheers>

    I forgot this one
    ⏪ Tonight is the first meeting of the #Chairboys and @suttonunited since the two teams met in the FA Trophy semi-final just over 30 years ago.

    Roll it back!

    Lost their last 4 League games after winning their first game 5-1 against Notts C who haven't lost since and are sitting 4th in the table. Sutton are bottom but 1, level on points with Colchester (just threw that in). Sutton knocked out Cambridge in the last round and are renown Cup giant killers.

    "The club is most famous for its FA Cup "giant killing" exploits, most notably in the 1988–89 season, when they defeated Coventry City 2–1 in the third round. The Coventry City team was composed mostly of star international players and had won the competition in 1986–87. In the 2016–17 season, Sutton reached the fifth round of the FA Cup for the first time in their history, beating three Football League teams (including Leeds United) before losing to Arsenal."

    Banana skin. Let's hope we don't slip up

    I expect a few changes tonight but nothing too drastic.

    You get handed a draw like that & completely blow it, for Bloomfield if they had lost down in Bristol he could have been in real trouble
