Dean Cox "excited" about FA Cup

Leyton Orient player Dean Cox has said that he is "excited" about the club's FA Cup match against Yeovil Town on Saturday, but has admitted that securing promotion from League One is more important.

Orient are third in the league table, but have picked up only seven points from their last six matches.

"I still get excited by the FA Cup - all the players do. We don't want to let our performances slip and you take confidence from winning games," he told the Daily Star.

"But although we'd love a run, our priority must be the league. That what we have been focusing on and we won't take our eye off the ball."

Russell Slade's side are back in league action on Tuesday night with a trip to Shrewsbury Town.
