FA Vase - getting excited

Great win for my side, Whitehawk, at the weekend, and now comes the time when we've got to show nerves of steel.

Truro are surely the best team left in the competition so we know it will be tough.

Their wage bill is £3,000 a week!

Draw for the quarters
Causeway United or Curzon Ashton v Leamington or Retford United,
Whitehawk v Truro,
AFC Totton v Wimborne Town, Billingham Synthonia v
VCD Athletic or Bideford.

remember watching Farnborough Town in the semi final of this in 1976 - we lost the first leg to Billericay 6v1 - and we were at home - shattered dreams of a 13 year old fan.

good luck

My home town team AFC Totton take on their Wessex League rivals Wimborne. This is the biggest match in Totton's 125 year history. The club are expecting a record 1000 + crowd at Testwood Park betaing the old record of 600. This was for a FA Cup fourth qualifying tie in 1982 which I attended as a nine year old. We lost and missed a trip to Brentford in the process. Come on you Stags!
