Spennymoor Town manager Graeme Lee admits everyone at the club is "excited" as they await the draw for the FA Trophy semi-finals.
The National League North side are 90 minutes away from a Wembley final on 11 May after winning 2-0 at Sutton United - an EFL club last season - in the last eight.
The County Durham outfit are the only club from outside the National League in the semis, with Aldershot Town, Woking and Rochdale the other three sides left.
"We're excited, we've proven that home or away, we can go anywhere and get a result," Lee told BBC Radio Tees.
"It's fantastic for everyone at the club, and one more game."
Spennymoor, who are 12th in their division, have never reached this stage of the competition before, although they have won the FA Vase.
The sixth-tier club can now look forward to the draw for the semis on Monday lunchtime.
"If you want to get to the semi-finals, you have to go to places like Sutton and get a result," said former Hartlepool United manager Lee.
"Now we're back to the school run on Monday and listening to the draw.
"For our club to be challenging like that, it's fantastic. We want these days for the fans and we want moments like this as we move forward."
