Rushall olympic 1 Tamworth 2 (AET)
Staffordshire senior Cup Quarter Final
So, Tamuff are still on for a bit of silverware after a scrappy game played in continuous drizzle on a pitch which not only slopes from sideline to sideline but also has a hump in the middle, I reckon Rushall were formed by crown green bowlers.
Good fun though, I'm a big fan of these Tinpot competitions, especially when you get away draws at grounds you don't visit too often.
Chasetown away next up, win that and we get to play at Port Vale in the final!

Think one of our players is on loan at Rushall, did Dean Perrow play? Should have played as a striker, quite a fast player and on his day a very good eye for goal. Shropshire Senior Cup as I've said before was not as exciting with just 3 teams elligible last time it just involed two games, a semi final - Telford 5-1 Market Drayton and a final - Telford 1-1 Shrewsbury (Shrewsbury win on penalties). Both at the Bucks Head. Both in pre-season. Fleetwood Town 3-0 AFC Telford UnitedToo tired and miserable to talk about it right now.

He did play, and yes he is nippy, as for his very good eye for goal - well I'll give him the benefit of the doubt what with the conditions and all that.

Notts F.A. senior "tinpot" cup 3rd round (last 16). Hucknall Town 3-0 Bilborough Pelican Didn't go 'cos: A) I was at work. B) Even if I wasn't it's a crap competition anyway.

NFA Northumberland Senior Cup 2nd round
Blyth Spartans 3-1 Bedlington Terriers
Closely contested first half, we almost took the lead early on when Robbie Dale took on and beat half their defence rounded the keeper but his shot came off the bar.
Bedlington took the lead after a free kick was parried into the path of Michael Dickinson who made no mistake form three yards out.
We pushed for the equaliser but it never looked like coming until just before half time. We had a corner and Bedlington player Alex Lawson elbowed Liam Gildea in the face (in the penalty box).
After consultation with the linesman the refereee sent Lawson off and awarded a penalty which Scotty Bell dispatched.
We took control in the second half but we lacked the clinical final ball until the 80th minute when Hedley flicked the ball over the static Bedlington defence and Robbie Dale was on hand to head in from close range.
Credit to Bedlington who pushed in search of an equaliser but by now our defence was just mopping up what little attacking threat they posed. The game was made safe in injury time when a ball over the Bedlington defence found Scotty Bell who used his pace to leave their defence standing and finished past the keeper.
Games like this are always akward and in the first half we gave Bedlington far too much. The second half was much better and even though the goals came late on it was a relatively comfortable victory in the end.
Crowd of 464

Where was that played Scott? I know it was due to be played at Bedlington but was it switched?

We've yet to play our Quarter Final against Kidsgrove. A chance for a little revenge as they knocked us out of the FA Cup this season. Your game against Kidsgrove is a semi-final tie, you've already beaten Newcastle Town and Sutton Coldfield. Might be a Tinpot tour in the final if the results go our respective ways!

You're quite right Coops. I don't usually pay much attention to the Staffs Senior Cup unless we get to the Semis. I didn't make it to the Newcastle or Sutton Coldfield matches. When we reached the Final a couple of years ago I missed it because I was at work (pesky shifts). It'd be nice to win it though as I think we've only ever won it once before and that was 11 years ago in a 2 legged final against Newcastle.

Barrow 0 A certain team in the E Midlands 1
Given our useless midweek record, that two of our main players were suspended and two more were injured, a very satisfactory result. Obviously a fluke :-)
Must admit I had a little chuckle when I read your match report on NLD, DazaB. Almost as many officials as goals!

As I suspected now is the time of the season that being FULL TIME will start to pay dividends.
Hope you go up via the play-offs and that a certain tameside "pub team" win the league.
