Kevin Nolan is looking forward to Notts County's FA Cup first-round encounter with Bristol Rovers and is eager for his players to show how far they've come as a team.
The League Two leaders welcome the Pirates - who ply their trade in League One - to Meadow Lane on Friday night and the Magpies manager believes his side have a great chance of making it through to round two.
"Bristol Rovers will give us an indicator of how far we have come in such a short space of time," Nolan told the official Notts site.
"When we went to Scunthorpe in the Carabao Cup we applied ourselves really well and there were a lot of positives to take. That's what I'm expecting tomorrow.
"The pressure's off. The lads are really looking forward to it and so am I.
"I hope we can produce another good performance to give ourselves a fantastic chance of making it through to the next round.
"I've never been in the competition this early before so this is something new for me."
