BILLERICAY Town head for cup glory this Saturday with the bonus of £4,000 prize money at stake when they take on Ryman League Premier Division side Enfield Town.
But manager Craig Edwards is adamant that his side won't be taking the opposition lightly because the visitors to New Lodge play one level lower adding: "There's never any easy cup games.
"They will want to come and try and put one over us because we are favourites but as you've seen in the FA Cup at the weekend it's who is on their game on the day and I will make sure we are this Saturday.
"Although establishing ourselves in the Blue Square Bet South is always our priority this season it's still nice to have a cup run.
"There's no pressure on the players like in a league game but they will want to do well and progress while the prize money is important for the club."
Edwards expects to have a full squad available for the game although he already has his eye on next Tuesday's rearranged league game at Dover Athletic.
The original game last Tuesday was called off after 16 minutes due to a floodlight failure and the league initially insisted it was rearranged for this week.
"We appealed against the decision and thankfully commonsense prevailed and we go back there next Tuesday," he said.
Edwards went on: "Having under a week to rearrange everything was just not enough and I was really impressed with the turn out and commitment of our supporters last Tuesday.
"Many of them took half days off work to go to the game and it cost them a lot of money to get there either by coach, car or train.
"The players also needed to take half days from work.
"It just wasn't fair on everyone at such short notice when it wasn't even our fault that the game was abandoned in the first place.
"The rules state we have 42 days to replay the game but obviously not when Dover start throwing their weight about.
"I hope as many fans as possible make the trip again on Tuesday because their vocal support is important to the players and they appreciate it."
Edwards was disappointed with his side's goalless draw at home to Weston-super-Mare on Saturday but in the end was satisfied with gaining a point.
"They were a difficult side to beat with a strong defence and they made it hard for us," he said.
"We made substitutions in the second half to try and change things and get a breakthrough but it didn't happen."
Edwards confirmed that two players have left the club this past week – experienced defender Greg Oates and on loan striker Duran Reynolds who has returned to Dagenham & Redbridge.
"Greg doesn't want to be sitting on the bench at this stage of his career and I can fully understand that," explains Edwards. "He needs and wants to be playing.
"He's a great lad and has been an excellent servant to the club over the two years and a bit he's been at New Lodge and he goes with our thanks and good wishes.
"I hope he finds a good club because he's still a good, experienced player."
