Would imagine Jamie will make a few changes to get some minutes into players, difference is this year we have a bench full of players who are good enough to start. They will all be looking to impress and get a starting place.
We havent had a run under Daisy, but in the past as a club we have had some amazing FA Cup games.

Taking Reading to 4 games one year. Leading at Swansea City TWICE in one game, Winning at Orient until the 82nd minute after scoring early, Knocking Gillingham out at PVR after drawing away. Losing only 1-0 to Blackburn Rovers in the 3rd round when we could easily have beaten them and were denied an equaliser that crossed the line. The comeback vs Bath, 2-0 at home in the second round and we really came back at them and won 3-2 with a worldy free kick for the winner.
We have the team spirit we had back then we have technically better players. If they really give it the full treatment and believe in themselves then theres no reason we cant get through to the first round at least again, and hopefully more match of the day or even better a home live tv game on Sky or the BBC. This is a chance for the players to really put themselves in the history books for the Wings and get some time in the spotlight.
coyw, starting on Saturday. Its time we had a piece of the pie, you deserve the limelight for the last 3 seasons performances. Make it happen.
Some more highlights of concord, this time from Yesterdays game vs Wealdstone at home. Mute the sound.

Assuming you are talking public transport then train from Fenchurch Street to Benfleet then a bus. You can pick the train up at West Ham - so either Jubilee Line from London Bridge or DLR from wherever.
You could go 486 bus to North Greenwich then Jubilee line 2 stops to West Ham then get the c2c to Benfleet. Another route could be 96 bus to Woolwich Arsenal then DLR to West Ham, although you may have to change at Canning Town going this way. Whichever way you go it could be quite busy as West Ham are at home to Sunderland.
