Morpeth Town AWAY
-
love the northeast don't we.....
FFS
-
Only a 400 mile round trip
-
BUFC must take this tournament seriously - ANY club from steps 1 & 2 that do are likely to make, at least, the quarter finals. So many clubs treat this competition as a "throw-away" cup.
Saying that, I am a bit surprised that in 2021 that this trophy has survived and has not gone the same way as the Texaco, Watney, Anglo-Scottish, Various Non-League KO cups, etc. Still a valid path to Wembley glory!
-
And Spennymoor away the following week...
-
We certainly looked like we were taking it seriously on Saturday? From team selection to fantastic effort and performance level? (As confirmed by the very disappointed Kidderminster manager)?
-
Morpeth are halfway down the league below, but they had 3pts from 8 games and since have taken 22 from 11. Last lost vs York in the fa Cup....
Won all 3 ties so far on pens too!
Their ground has a newly laid 3g pitch
-
Morpeth have a number of experienced 30+ players and are not to be taken lightly, particularly in a 1 off game with no extra time.
-
Morpeth are about on a par with Atherton Collieries and I can't ever see them beating Boston United...
