For everyone involved at the club, from the players, management, fans and of course Kitmen, this is a game they have had pencilled in since the draw was made. For the Hawks a game against Ebbsfleet is a tough game, but is a game that is winnable.

Speaking to hawks TV in midweek Lee Bradbury stated about the tie with a little smile that “it’ll be tough, but Ebbsfleet are expected to win”. On the fact that there is a league difference he said that “we’re a league below, but at this moment in time we are a team with a lot of confidence and don’t know when their beat, which is dangerous.”

The team will want to show what they are made off against a top Conference South tomorrow and will give them a real good yard marker towards their progression. They will know as well of recent times are a team are a team that can blow hot and cold. So catch them on a cold day then the chance of a FA Cup shock is realistic.

The squad had a training session on Thursday night where Lee said they would “look on some shape”. Lee also said that in that session “he would take it easy” following two intensive matches in a matter of three days.

THE OPPOSITION:

Ebbsfleet manager has said on their club website that the game against the Hawks will be a ‘tough obstacle’. He said that securing the services of Lee Bradbury ‘was a good decision’ and said that ‘He’s a good manager and a very good side’. In other news Jordan Parkes has left the club by mutual consent and has moved back to his former club Hemel Hempstead.
