Pagham ready for their big FA Cup occasion
The Lions have already come through two rounds of the competition, earning £5,000 prize money in the process.
Now the visit of the Bostik premier side from the other side of Sussex gives Richie Hellen and Tom Simmonds’ team the chance of a giantkilling –and another £6,000.

Hide AdLions chairman Tony Shea said: “We’re looking forward to it – it should be a great day at the club.
“We played them in pre-season, which is helpful as it means we know a little about them. We lost 4-2 but it could have been 6-6.
“We’re under no illusions it will be tough. It’s one of those where we need to be at our best and hope they’re a bit off their best.
“But we’ve started the season in good form and we’ll have a big crowd in.
“With Bognor playing away we might get some extra local fans in.”
Pagham warmed up for the test with a 6-3 home win over East Preston in the Peter Bentley Cup.
