Minnows Pontefract Collieries on the brink of first round

Pontefract Collieries are arguably the least known outfit left in the tournament, the West Yorkshire-based outfit just one replay away from the first round proper.

Having held National League side Halifax to a 0-0 draw at Beechnut Lane, they will take on the the same opponents for a replay at the Shay on Tuesday night.

Plying their trade in the Northern Premier League Division One East, Pontefract could potentially welcome a former Premier League outfit such as Ipswich or Sunderland to their 1,200 capacity ground.

Marine could repeat last-year's heroics

Merseyside based outfit Marine A.F.C were within minutes of repeating last year's heroic effort of making it beyond the qualifiying rounds before a late Wrexham equaliser ensured a replay for the Welsh outfit.

The replay is set to take place this Tuesday, 19 October which will determine the club's fate and status in the first round proper.

Last year's tournament saw them dumped out by Premier League outfit Tottenham Hostpur - keep an eye out for ball number 49.

12:05Josh O'Brien

Semi-pro Maidenhead United in first round proper

Semi-professional outfit Maidenhead United are in the first riund proper after a comfortable 3-1 win over Hastings United on Saturday afternoon.

Maidenhead currently languish as low as 18th in the fifth tier of English football, as they hope to welcome one of the bigger names to York Road - a stadium they have occupied since 1871.

This places Maidenhead in the history books, as it is the oldest senior football ground continuously used by the same club.
