And for full-back Adam Blakeman, the magic of the cup is still alive.
He said: “The FA Cup is the big one.
“It is the one you look forward to, especially when you get to the first round.
“It is a really exciting time for everyone at the club.
“It can get a little bit of money into the club.”
Full back Blakeman, 26, is the club’s top scorer with nine goals in Chorley’s unbeaten start.

And as Blakeman and company aim to make it 16 without defeat, he says he has worked to adding goals to his game.
He said: “I said last year that I thought I was doing okay, but that I needed to add goals into my game.
“Thankfully this year I have been in the right place at the right time a few times and just stuck a few in.
““I’ve had a few penalties and I’m confident in my own ability to score them.”
