ANDY Gouck hasn't been fazed by the attention he received after his screaming volley handed Accrington Stanley a ticket into the FA Cup second round.

As a former Blackpool captain, who still lives in the resort, he's used to getting recognised in the street.

But it hasn't made him relish tomorrow's trip to the Fitness First Stadium any less, even though a clash with Bournemouth is relatively small fry compared to the sides he faced for the Tangerines, including Tottenham, Newcastle and Manchester City.

As a teenager, he also played in the sixth round of the world's most famous competition, but they were beaten 2-1 in the second replay at QPR.

But all those experiences should stand Gouck and the rest of the side in good stead for tomorrow's showdown with Sean O'Driscoll's Bournemouth.

"I'll be passing on my words of wisdom," the 31-year-old said.

"The young lads in the side will naturally be affected by nerves because the FA Cup's such a big event, but that might help them perform on the day.

"If we go down there and perform, hopefully we canget a result. Everyone certainly believes we can, whether it's a win or a draw to bring them back to our place."

Despite Gouck being an FA Cup hero for Stanley - particularly in the eyes of the Reds fan who won £330 after placing £10 on the midfielder to score at 33-1- he's still had to book the weekend off work in order to be involved against the Cherries.

"I've used up a few days holiday because of the cup," said Gouck, who is a social worker in Blackpool for disadvantaged children aged between 10 and 16.

"Hopefully the boss will give me some time back!"
