Stratford Town will go to the seaside – Cleethorpes Town (Northern Premier League Division One East) for the FA Cup 1st Qualifying Round on Saturday 3 September after Cleethorpes beat Handsworth (Sheffield) 5-1 in their reply. Interestingly, 2 of the committee have close ties to Cleethorpes in their younger days!

Let’s hope for a repeat of last year’s record cup run or even go further.
