WEMBLEY DREAM IS INSPIRING BRENNAN

Ahead of this weekend the duo were only separated in the National League table on goal difference and looking to cement themselves in second and third to receive a play-off eliminator bye.

But the promotion race will be parked this coming Saturday when they face off in the final eight.

And Brennan doesn’t want to see his side’s run come to an end.

“We’ve gone strong in every FA Trophy game,” Brennan told The NLP. “I won it as a player back in 2004-05 with Grays – it was a fantastic competition to win.

“It’s the same for these lads. It’s an unbelievable opportunity. We were unlucky back then as Wembley was being renovated so we played at Villa Park.

“But this is an opportunity to go to Wembley. You’re two games away and that’s how we’re taking it.

“We’ve probably got the toughest draw we could have got with Bromley away! It’s a cup competition so I don’t really care how we play it’s just trying to get into the semi-finals.
