I shall be at the Hare & Hounds for Leyton v Dulwich next Saturday. I like going there. The place has a real old-fashioned feel about it, hemmed in by old terraced streets, and the 48 bus from London Bridge station drops you right outside.

Leyton 1 hamlet 4 in the Trophy today - not bad after being a goal down a few minutes before half time.

We're away to Not Police or Waltham Abbey in the next round in two weeks time - they drew 0-0 today.

Sutton-Tooting’s the one that stood out amongst that for me and I see the Us have progressed. Wouldn’t mind them when the Ravens come in- it’d add a bit of spice to a Trophy tie for once.

Cammell Laird at "home". Was hoping for Skem or Warrington away, but oh well.

We beat the Plastic Plod 2-0 on Saturday and have pulled Bury Town at home in the next round. Would have preferred them away as it would have been a bit of a beano at a ground I've never visited. Will be a pig of a journey midweek if it goes to a replay.

Worksop away for us. Should be a decent away day.

Good food and decent clubhouse at Hucknall - great acoustics behind one of the goals as well.

I'm looking forward to it, a proper away day on the rattler.

What price we get Mansfield when it's our turn to join in? Already got em at ours in the FA Cup and Setanta Shield. What are the chances eh?

You've not checked the train times yet then?

Have I f*ck.



I do know that we can, apparently, get back into town in time for The Naughtys that evening.

3rd qualifying round draw: www.thefa.com/TheFACup/TheFATrophy/Fixtures/ Boston Utd at home for us. Not a bad draw.

Swindon Supermarine’s long been one of my favourite names on the non-league scene.

It was until they beat Maidstone on saturday

I saws the Rugby v Nantwich tie on the Saturday (bottom Southern Premier v mid-table Northern Premier), result was a fair reflection, Rugby looked short of confidence up front in an otheriwise fairly even game.

Bury Town won 3-0 at the Hamlet on the Sunday afternoon, all three goals coming inside the first twenty minutes. The game overall was quite even, but Bury were far sharper out of the blocks and look well equipped to cause an upset at Hampton in the next round, having already knocked Chelmsford and Boringstoke out of the FA Cup.

Sounds like I went to the wrong game in Ashton tonight!

Really chuffed for Blyth as well, top set of fans who joined in our relegation party at Hilton Park last year

This is supposed to be an FA Trophy thread!

Silly me!!

I feel compelled to criticise The Moderation Process

That's that then

Had a brilliant day at Tamworth vs Workington (supporting the Reds). Dominated them the whole match, deserved the win, well taken goal from Jonny Wright

Northwich away. Whoop de doo. A side that are second billing at their own ground: now that's tinpot

Warrington Town 0-1 Nantwich Town

Wow! So Close
