Tilson is refusing to be distracted by the excitement of the Cup

Southend United manager Steve Tilson has said their form in League One is still their priority.

The Blues earned an FA Cup replay at home to Chelsea next week, following Saturday's 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge.

But Tilson told BBC Essex he was more concerned with trying to improve on their current league position of 13th.

"The club has made its money now, the league is more important by far than the replay so we'll now concentrate on Saturday against Crewe," he said.
