Chambers' side are preparing for a replay with Blyth

AFC Telford United have refused to get carried away with the prospect of a home FA Cup tie with Lincoln City.

The Bucks first have to get past a home replay with Blyth Spartans, who reached the third round last season before losing 1-0 to Blackburn.

"The players mustn't think the job's done. It isn't," assistant boss Larry Chambers told BBC Radio Shropshire.

"It was a really strong performance from us to get a draw at Blyth, but they're still a big hurdle."

The Bucks survived the final half an hour with 10 men after Gavin Hurren was sent off, and survived intense Blyth pressure for a 0-0 draw.

"We must not and will not underestimate Blyth at our place," Chambers added.

Chairman Lee Carter has called on supporters to "raise the roof" to help the Bucks get past Blyth.

"The fans have a big, big part to play in this and I hope that they can come out and really get behind the team," he said.
