Rovers relishing Cup tie - Harvey

Forest Green manager Jim Harvey
Harvey's side are into the FA Cup third round for the first time in their history

Forest Green manager Jim Harvey insists his side are not nervous ahead of Saturday's FA Cup third round tie against Championship side Derby County.

The Blue Square Premier side have never reached this stage of the Cup before but Harvey says his squad is relaxed.

Harvey told BBC Radio Gloucestershire: "The players are looking forward to it.

"In this industry, when you get a chance to play in a game like this, you relish it. We will prepare for it as we would do for any other game."

Forest Green's main worry this week is whether defender Darren Jones will be fit to face the Rams after picking up a back injury in Sunday's league win over Barrow.
