Rhodes Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 At least, thankfully, there will be five SSML Club's in the First Qualifying Round on Saturday following last night's replay at Bell Close, I wonder how many are able to progress further as they are all tough looking ties: Colney Heath v Corby Town Dunstable Town v Bishop’s Stortford Hadley v Arlesey Town Lowestoft Town v Leighton Town Wingate & Finchley v London Colney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhodes Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Lets get ready to rumble then folks, I am quite hopeful of Arlesey Town and Leighton Town's chances this afternoon but not that confident about Colney Heath, Dunstable Town and London Colney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winslow Boy Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Those two appear to have a good chance. The other ties certainly look trickier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhodes Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 I see Wingate & Finchley took the lead on 34 minutes, it's 1-1 at Hadley after Arlesey Town took the lead, it's 1-1 at Colney Heath and, unfortunately, 2-0 to Bishop's Stortford, O-0 at Lowestoft Town Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhodes Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 17 hours ago, Rhodes said: The Emirates FA Cup First Qualifying Round Colney Heath 1 Corby Town 3 An anorak from another Forum was at this one yesterday, surprising that none of the Officials noticed two players from Colney Heath were wearing the same number shirt: The Emirates FA Cup – First Round Qualifying The Recreation Ground – Official Attendance: 245 Colney Heath (1) 1 ……………. Corby Town (2) 3 This tie looked to be the most intriguing of any being played on a previously unvisited ground and within reasonable travelling distance. Step 5 Colney Heath had a 100% win record in their seven competitive games played so far this season, while step 4 Corby were unbeaten in their 5 league games played to date. Entrance - £8 Programme - £1 (decent enough production for the price) The stadium is pleasantly located in Colney Heath Recreation Ground, which primarily comprises grass football pitches of varying sizes. The disused tennis court has now become the club car park. The only cover is provided by the seated area in front of the clubhouse, so not convinced this would be a great venue for watching football on a wet afternoon or evening. The first half was quite entertaining, with two goals from the visitors’ #10 sandwiching a lone reply from the hosts’ #11. The game became rather scrappy after the interval; neither side managed to gain much momentum. Colney Heath did keep looking for a way back into the game; they forced a number of corners throughout the half, but didn’t create any clear cut opportunities as far as I can recall. The only goal of the half, scored inside the final eleven minutes, was a well taken effort from Corby’s #7. He nearly added another, but his curling effort against the post, bounced harmlessly away for a goal-kick. One thing I did notice in the second half was that Colney Heath had two players wearing a #19 shirt. Not that there would have been any confusion; one was the goalkeeper.

Rhodes Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Sadly no longer SSML related but here is the Second Qualifying Round draw made earlier today: http://nonleaguedaily.com/fa-cup-second-round-qualifying-draw/?mc_cid=a375c9480f&mc_eid=d914ad9d95#utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=fa-cup-second-round-qualifying-draw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhodes Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Again no longer SSML related but one thing I've noticed is that Haringey Borough are always drawn at home in the FA Cup, I can't remember when they last had a tie away from Coles Park and drew AFC Wimbledon in the First Round proper last season where they made around £100,000 from the Friday night tie in front of the BBC tv cameras.
