After that period a while back where we had a stack of away draws in a row, it's going the other way for us now. A great opportunity to make it to the first round proper.

[Timperley The Best]

Couldn't have asked for a better draw no under estimating though

Both midtable in the league below, the replay is tomorrow at Workington. Considering the odds on drawing a conference club in the northern half of the draw weve done well. Let's not waste this opportunity

[SW]

Great chance to progress and pick up some more money. One of the draws I had hoped for.

[robininstockport]

Superb draw.

[Mausoleum Alty]

Can't say fairer than that,if we don't progress we've only ourselves to blame.

I suspect that you are thinking of our encounter with Workington in the FA Trophy First Round back in January 1978.

After a somewhat fortunate goalless draw at Workington, we saw them off courtesy of a 4-0 drubbing in the replay at Moss Lane.

From thereon, we marched on to victory at Wembley via Frickley Athletic, Matlock Town, Winsford United, Runcorn and Leatherhead.

[thegazelle]

just cheated it was workington in 1977/78 when we went on to win the trophy.

matlock was the same cup run . i recall the "invasion" of matlock and the replay had to be one of the biggest crowds i saw at moss lane and it was given as about 1500 in the papers . no wonder we had so much cash in them days !!!

Ian Morris scored in a 1-1 draw in an FA Trophy Third Round tie at Matlock Town on 25th February 1978.

We triumphed 2-0 in the replay on the following Monday evening.

Jeff Johnson scored both goals and the official attendance was 1,840.




 

[York Alty is back]

Can't complain at that draw. First up three points at Celtic.
