Jackett eyes cup run

Millwall boss Kenny Jackett was already dreaming of an FA Cup trip to one of the Premier League's big guns after securing a first-round 4-1 victory over AFC Wimbledon.

Newly-crowned WBA World Heavyweight Champion and Millwall fan David Haye watched on as Neil Harris set the Lions on their way shortly after half-time, before substitute Jason Price struck with his first touch.

Lewis Taylor got one back for the Dons before Danny Schofield extended the advantage and Price delivered the knock-out blow two minutes from time.

And after being rewarded with a trip to Blue Square South side Staines Town, Jackett revealed he already had one eye on the third round.

"We've got another tricky draw now against Staines but it's a real opportunity for us to progress to round three," said Jackett.

"A Premier League side away from home would be a fantastic game for the side to play in. But this game could have been a real banana skin game for us because AFC Wimbledon are a good side."
