Not sure what has happened to the graphic but a big night for Shefford Town & Campton tomorrow, I see the Club are looking to cash in charging £10 entrance:

Not SSML but Biggleswade FC take on AFC Dunstable tomorrow evening (8 February) at The Eyrie in another Quarter Final tie, Biggleswade FC shocked Biggleswade Town at the Carlsberg Stadium in the First Round of the competition on penalties following a 1-1 draw (see an informative report). The winners of this tie will travel to Kempston Rovers or Potton United in the Semi Final with Biggleswade United or Luton Town travelling to Arlesey Town or Bedford Town who lock horns at Hitchin Road next week:

Biggleswade United v Luton Town
Kempston Rovers v Potton United

Kempston Rovers v Potton United was postponed at the twelfth hour last Tuesday evening and Biggleswade United v Luton Town abandoned on the hour mark due to a player injury with Luton Town leading 4-1 so the likelihood is that they will go forward to the Semi Finals of the competition. Kempston Rovers v Potton United now takes place on Tuesday 21 February with Arlesey Town entertaining Bedford Town this evening (Tuesday 14 February), see the match programme:

You couldn't make it up could you, the Arlesey Town v Bedford Town tie was frustratingly abandoned last night due to fog at Hitchin Road with the score still at 0-0:
