Off to Altrincham tomorrow to watch Harborough Town in the FA Cup 4th qualifying round. Around 600 travelling, which is just about everyone given that the average home gate is about that.
After successfully negotiating Bourne in the first quali round, Shepshed Dynamo came up against the Stamford juggernaut. I am winner-staying-on Stamford. Who dispatched Sutton Coldfield away in the 3rd round...and will be looking towards the prospect of a potential giant killing away trip against the mighty Macclesfield this saturday.
Very much second best for the first hour and were 2 nil down. Couldn’t really have argued if 3 or 4. It was very much full v part timers.
Then Harborough made a quadruple substitution that unsettled them and they went for the time wasting approach rather than getting the third. A scrambled goal in the 87th minute made it game on and the equaliser on 90 +10 got the replay on Tuesday night.
