Re: Ashington Away
Tough tie, but we're in the last 64, so no-one was going to be easy. Currently 6th in the Ebac Northern League Division One (Step 5), the same Division as Darlington 1883.
A long trip, but it'll be a great weekend, can't wait !! A horrible journey home if we lose.........so we'd better go there and win eh?
It'll be hard, but with the lads we've got I truly believe we can do it.
Better get your orders in for the merchandise and wrap up well, it could be cold

Re: Ashington Away
Given the record of Northern League clubs in this competition, and the high placing of Ashington in the league, this would be a proper cup upset.
From a fans perspective - not players! - I think we have the expect a very tough game of football. But anything can happen on the day.

Re: Ashington Away
Ridiculous distance to travel.
Best bet is probably East Coast Mainline from Peterborough. Doable in under 3 hours i'd have thought.
I'd read on another website that Northern League sides are beat avoided in the Vase as they're often very, very good. If memory serves I think Ashington had a good FA Cup run last year, possibly losing to a BSP side?

Re: Ashington Away
Hopefully the players will be allowed a stay over and a night out in Newcastle. They deserve it whatever the result
