PORT Talbot Town manager Mark Jones will not be taking Welsh League division one side Caldicot Town lightly when his side travel to Gwent tomorrow for a place in the last 16 of the Welsh Cup.

The hosts lie seventh in their division, just a point off third spot, with the advantage of playing on their own Jubilee Way pitch, so the visitors are geared up for a rousing tussle.

Jones has great respect for his lower-league opponents, having had them watched.

He said: "They are a tidy side and have recently beaten Dinas Powys 6-0 and Ton Pentre 3-0.

"I have had them watched and they must not be underestimated.

"This is the proverbial banana-skin tie and we must be professional about it as, otherwise, we could come unstuck.

"This is a wonderful competition and I keep telling the players we are only four games away from Europe.

"What an achievement it would be to see Port Talbot there for the first time."

Jones added: "The whole of Caldicot will be out to shout their team on.

"It will be a real David versus Goliath tie and we must go about our task in a thorough and professional way."

Jones's only slight doubt is striker Martin Rose, who was forced off with injury in the 3-1 Loosemores League Cup quarter-final clash at home to Welshpool on Tuesday.

"We really bossed the match and it was quite comfortable in the end," Jones added.

"It was a nice draw for us and we put the tie to bed quite early on."
