A CROWD of more than 1,500 is expected at Crabble for Dover Athletic's FA Cup fourth qualifying round clash against Bishop's Stortford on Saturday.

Whites have already made £12,000 in prize money for battling through so far and another £10,000 is at stake on Saturday alone. Then there is also the gate receipts and possible TV money if they win through to the first roundproper.

The club keeps all profits from cup runs now the CVA has been paid up.

Manager Clive Walker said: "You like to get through these things. You get people coming who haven’t been for years and it keeps them there for a bit, and it’s all income for the club."
