The Pitching In Isthmian Football League

Trophy hunters eye next opponents!

14 Dec 2015 By David Watters

Dulwich Hamlet and Bognor Regis Town are looking forward to flying the flag for the Ryman League in the FA Trophy in the New Year after the draw for the second round was made at Wembley.

After winning 2-1 at Bury Town in the first round proper on Saturday, Ryman Premier title-chasers Hamlet will host either National League Guiseley or the Evo-Stik Northern Premier League's Burscough following Monday lunchtime's draw at the national stadium.

The Rocks, who knocked out National South Maidstone United in Kent at the weekend after Luke Kandi's 17th winner, were also rewarded with a home tie with either Evo-Stik League Southern Leamington or National League Altrincham arriving at Nyewood Lane on Saturday 16 January.

As well as a place in the last 16, both top flight clubs will also collect a further £6000 in prize money if they can keep their runs going after Christmas in Non-League's showpiece competition.
