Trinity home, Boston away in FA Trophy

07:00 - 04 November 2008

REVENGE is on the cards for Gainsborough Trinity boss Steve Charles after his side were pulled out of the hat to face AFC Telford United in the FA Trophy third qualifying round.

Trinity lost to the Stags 3-2 in the Setanta Shield earlier in the season, and Charles (pictured right, top) has declared that he'll be out to avenge that defeat when the two sides lock horns at the Northolme on November 22.

"We owe them one" said a determined Charles.

"They beat us in the Setanta Shield, so I'm eager to get out there and make sure we set the record straight."

Trinity could have been drawn against lower league opposition in the competition, but Charles believes taking on a fellow Blue Square North side will get the best from his team.

"We will really be up for the challenge" said Charles. "There is an argument that a team from lower down the leagues would have been easier, but that could have been a bit of a banana skin.

"Telford play some good football, like we do. When we met in the Setanta Shield we had a belter of a game and we'll be looking for a repeat of that performance - albeit with the right result for us."

Boston United, meanwhile, have been drawn away to fellow UniBond League Premier Division side FC United of Manchester.

The game will take place on Sunday, November 23 as the Reds ground share with Bury at Gigg Lane.

Pilgrims boss Tommy Taylor (pictured right, bottom) is confident his team can progress to the next round, having beaten the Lancashire side 1-0 earlier in the season.

"I think it is a good fixture for both teams - they are a good footballing side" said Taylor.

"The players will be up for the game and will want to do well against a big team like FC United."
