    Beat Guisley 1-0 on snow filled pitch and was watched by crowd of 291. We now play winners of Cambridge and Salisbury away in Quarter Final on 20th Feb. Just 3 more matches (Quarter and two legs of Semi) before Final at Wembley!!

    We have reached Final before but was held at Villa instead of Wembley as they were rebuilding at that time.

    Why?

    If we do make to Wembley then we will be first side to played 3 finals on 3 different grounds (Old Wembley in 1989, Villa Park in 2003 and Hopefully New Wembley in 2010)

    And second to win the FA double (FA Vase and FA Trophy) after Stafford Rangers.

    I reckon Tamworth now have a chance with so many bigger Conf teams out and some of the Billy Big B*lls teams regarding it as an irritation. Also the pre tournament favourites Alty are bizarrely out

    Workington delighted me beating the favourites elect Wimbledon, you been there yet, the most one eyed fans ever, but they won't go the distance. Good luck to you, plus I reckon you're worth a punt if the odds are good enough.
