Last updated : 18 July 2004 By Les Holmes
Understandably Laws is excited at the prospect of a competitve return to the City Ground for the first time in 12 years.

He said: "It's fantastic for us all. Not just for me personally, but for the club as well - it will be financially very rewarding.

"It'll be great going back to my favourite club, it will be lovely to take my team back there.

"It's imperative that small clubs like ours generate funds from the cups, but we know it'll be very tough and they will obviously start as clear favourites."

The game will be played in the week commencing August 23.
