FOREST Green fans were in for a surprise when they got chance to take a selfie with one of the most coveted trophies in the football world.

Fans were given the chance to get their hands on the FA Cup on Saturday during Rovers' 3-3 thriller with Lincoln City.

Charles Runcie, Head of BBC Sport, English Regions, said: “The FA Cup has got to be one of the most famous trophies in world sport. To see the trophy up close and personal – it’s almost as good as scoring the winner at Wembley.”

Rovers face a FA Cup first round proper clash with League One side Scunthorpe United at The New Lawn next Sunday.
