Also, im in the minority with this opinion and thats fine. I'll be there and hopefully we can see another 3rd round
It's a great draw for whoever wins the tie. I also think its the only all nonleague tie in round 2. If we get through we may get a TV game - particularly if we end up as the only non league team in the 3rd round. However, that's thinking too far ahead.

Yep exactly. Both sides will fancy their chances and hopefully we can come out on top

We should get a decent attendance. I reckon Kidderminster will sell out their allocation

Agree we need 5k of our own at this game and make it a day to remember.

In the scheme of things, home draw with a real chance to progress is a perfect opportunity. Let’s get out in numbers and press for victory.

£79,500 on offer to the winners and a possible third round tie away to a Premier League side, a win could help balance the books and help finance future signings for a play off push, if that doesn’t attract a big crowd nothing will.

Murray joining Barrow upset alot of their fans.
Seems they are having good run beat Doncaster 3-0 with Robbie Gotts in their team.
Kidderminster will see it as personal but one thing Murray seems to be a good tactician.
Get this right we could have a good payout and hopefully if we go through a away game to Liverpool or Manchester City.

Kidderminster's league form has dropped dramatically.
Haven't won a league game since they beat Gateshead on the 16th September and were 4th in the table.
Haven't won any of their last 8 league games, drawing 4 and losing 4, dropping to 13th in the table.

Wow that’s a good pot,…. plus half of matchday gate receipts. This game is worth up to £100k to the winners.

40% of match day gate receipts.

Also if we reach round 3, £26,500 if lose, and £121,500 for winning.

Not been in the Kidderminster match day Squad since coming on in the 68 minute away at Carlisle on October 10th.

I know what you mean 1987 but, as others have said, could have been a lot worse.
Good chance to progress here.Mind you, Kidderminster will be thinking the same.
