Lewes have been inundated with good wishes since beating Mangotsfield at the Dripping Pan two weeks ago.

Their fourth qualifying round win booked a tie with Second Division high-flyers Stoke.

GARRY WILSON (Eastbourne Borough manager): Jimmy is an old friend of mine, he and I go back along way to playing together for Queen's Park. Stoke is a bit far for me to go but I wish them all the best and good luck to them. I wouldn't think any non-league manager would be telling the truth if he said he wasn't jealous of Lewes."

GARY CROYDON (Burgess Hill manager): I'll be going up there because I know a few of their players like Marc Cable, Paul Thomsett and Sam Francis. I think half of Sussex will be there. As many as possible should make the trip. Lewes couldn't be playing a better team at this stage of the competition."

JOHN CRUMPLIN (St Leonards player): I know Jimmy personally and everyone is delighted for him and wish his team all the best.

It will be a tough game for them but it's a great opportunity for the club to make a name for themselves.

Carl Stabler (Wick manager): They have got to enjoy the day because it all happens so quickly. They have got to go there and play with no fear.

Lewes are the underdogs and they have nothing to lose so you never know what can happen. I know that from taking charge of Littlehampton against Northampton in the first round in 1991.

BILLY SMITH (Crawley manager): I wouldn't be surprised if they won. There is always a upset each year and it could just be them. Jimmy Quinn has done a great job there. In the last couple of years he has got a good team together. It will be difficult for the young players. You hope the senior players bring them through it. It is nice to see so many Sussex sides up there. Hastings, Bognor, us and Lewes are all having good seasons.

JOHN SUTER (Horsham YMCA and Sussex manager): I hope Lewes thoroughly enjoy it. I wish it was me. A couple of years ago we lost 3-2 to Chelmsford City in the fourth qualifying round.

SAMMY DONNELLY (Worthing manager): I wish Lewes the best of luck. It will be a great occasion and I hope the players and supporters enjoy their day.

NIGEL WILLIAMS (Sussex FA): Everyone at the Sussex FA from the president down to the tea lady wish Lewes the very best of luck. We are all very sure that they will do Sussex football proud.
