Being very pedantic here but the semi-finals are two legs so technically it's 3 games away from a potential Wembley trip

That's a fantastic result for Jamie Howell's side. It's the non-league equivalent of a League One side getting to the quarter-finals of the FA Cup.
With just under a 1000 there last night in dodgy weather they will be expecting a 1500+ crowd for their quarter-final against Macclesfield or Torquay.
The share of FA prize money will also help The Rocks constant financial struggle with over £25000 being banked so far.
The next round is at The Nye Camp on Sat 27th Feb. With the Albion's game against Leeds moved to Mon 29th Feb I know that any extra supporters will be made most welcome.
p.s. The Rocks also play some very attractive football.

Good luck to Bognor, well run club and always very welcoming.
Remember going when they beat Swansea, they kept a young Dean Saunders very quiet.

What a match. Bognor deserved to win with the amount of effort they put in last night. Best bit of the night was Jack Pearce announcing on the tannoy ' we have found a set of Honda car keys, there is also a crystal palace key ring attached. oh dear ' nice one Jack !!! Gutted to be missing the quarter final due to work stocktake but roll on the semi final. come on you rocks.
Used to cycle up to The Nye Camp in the early 70s to get my fix of live football.
I went to School with Mick & Paul Pullen and it was great to see them in that team that beat Swansea - over 3,500 at The Lane. Also went to Reading for the next round.
Great times for The Rocks

Stood behind the clubhouse goal for second half and extra time. the wind was blowing into our faces and I was getting colder by the second. was hoping
it wasn't going into extra time but it did.

Yes likewise - I was stood there for the whole match (probably frozen to the step) but managed to get into Seasons to thaw out before extra time !

Fancy Bognor if they get an awful Torquay at home.
