Southampton build up

Written by Clive Farquhar

The build up for Saturday's FA Cup encounter with Southampton will include a visit on Friday night from reporters from BBC's 5 Live radio station!

Earlier in the competition minnows Chasetown FC were featured with reporters visiting their Social Club to interview fans live on the show and now it is the turn of Rovers supporters to enjoy the experience!

The event will take place in the SC bar between 7pm and 9pm and will also feature a full re-run of the famous 2-0 victory over Southampton in January 1978. There will also be a number of former players attending who will be able to relive their participation in that seasons cup run too.

Full details are to be found on the FC website here.

Moving on to the day itself, please note that the bars at the stadium will be open from 10.30am for those who need to steady their nerves ahead of the 12.30pm kick-off!
