FA Trophy Third Round Draw

By Ian Townsend

Invicta, Bognor, Uxbridge and Swifts find out their opponents- and there are some big games in prospect!

The draw for the Third Round of the Isuzu FA Trophy was made a few minutes ago, and it delivered some tough but exciting ties for our four remaining clubs.

Folkestone Invicta will welcome back Leiston, who of course used to complete in our Premier Division before moving over to the Pitching In Southern Premier. Bognor Regis Town are on the road to Banbury United, National League North conquerors of Stowmarket Town on Saturday.

Onto our Step Four sides, and Pitching In Isthmian North giant killers Heybridge Swifts welcome Hungerford Town of National League South, and after defeating Hereford last weekend won't be at all fazed by that. Pitching In Isthmian South Central giant killers Uxbridge have a National League side heading their way- or rather, they are heading there, as they travel to Dagenham and Redbridge.

Matches to be played on Saturday 17th December.

Winners get £4500, losers £1250.
