If they are drawn against each other, at least it would guarantee there being a non-league club in the Quarter Finals!Trek wrote:Sutton win 1-0 so two non-league clubs are through to the 5th Round. Hope they don't get drawn against each other!
Very tough draw for them in the quarter final, away at South Shields. Guaranteed a great crowd and a bit of cash from a shared gate even if they don't manage to beat the favourites for the Vase.Formic wrote:There's quite an (ex-)Diamonds presence in these highlights of that game - https://youtu.be/qFFwDlX4qSUTheIncognitoKid wrote:Dom lawless scored the winner in extra time for Newport Pagnell to send them into the quarter finals of the Vase.
The favourites who shouldn't even still be in the Cup, embarrassing the way they got past Morpath. Can't see it but I hope Pagnell turn them over.Trek wrote:Very tough draw for them in the quarter final, away at South Shields.

Totally agree as we discussed last Saturday. Shields are currently averaging over 1200 for their league matches with a high of over 2500 when they played North Shields earlier in the season. Wouldn't surprise me seeing a crowd approaching 2000 for this match. South Shields crowds have taken off after they've returned 'home'. Well there's a thought!Brownie wrote: The favourites who shouldn't even still be in the Cup, embarrassing the way they got past Morpeth. Can't see it but I hope Pagnell turn them over.
