How do we see this affair at Creasey Park going this evening:

Can Leighton Town put one foot into the Southern League Division One Central this evening:

Not SSML but Biggleswade FC take on AFC Dunstable tomorrow evening (8 February) at The Eyrie in another Quarter Final tie, Biggleswade FC shocked Biggleswade Town at the Carlsberg Stadium in the First Round of the competition on penalties following a 1-1 draw (see an informative report). The winners of this tie will travel to Kempston Rovers or Potton United in the Semi Final with Biggleswade United or Luton Town travelling to Arlesey Town or Bedford Town who lock horns at Hitchin Road next week: https://www.biggleswadefc.co.uk/Matchreport.aspx?id=628805

Kempston Rovers do interesting match previews on their website, this should be an interesting affair: https://www.kempstonrovers.org/teams/114716/match-centre/0-5519163

Highlights, firstly from the embarrassing abandonment at Cow Lane on Saturday 28 January and then, exactly six minutes into the video, highlights from Tring Athletic's excellent 2-1 win at Oak Park in Walsall the following week:

Two Quarter Final ties tomorrow evening including 'the big one' at Second Meadow: Tuesday 7 February Bedfordshire FA Senior Challenge Cup Quarter Final Biggleswade United v Luton Town Kempston Rovers v Potton United

This will, be an interesting affair on Wednesday evening: Wednesday 8 February (kick off 7.45pm) Hinchingbrooke Cup Quarter Final Eaton Socon v Pinchbeck United

How do we see this affair going, incidentally what has happened to 'you know who' aka Loudmouth BFC, who has not been spotted since attending the Letchworth Garden City Eagles v London Tigers fixture on Saturday 19 November, my guess is that he has ruffled feathers with the hierarchy at the Pixmore Playing Fields, similar to Always Leighton at Leighton Town, and has walked away from the Club which is a shame:

Sorry to sound like a broken 45rpm, sorry, 78rpm record but as stated previously the FA Vase prize money is absolutely 'criminal' isn't it, Tring Athletic will receive just £2,250 if they beat Bury AFC on Saturday afternoon:

Cruz- Yes, I didn't see that result coming however I see that Rugby Borough travel to Rushden & Higham United tomorrow evening so they will still be just three points behind Real Bedford going into Saturday's games, Northampton Sileby Rangers won't be pushovers at McMullen Park will they:

Tring Athletic, the only SSML survivor in the competition at the Fifth Round stage, entertain North West Counties League Premier Division Bury AFC on Saturday afternoon. I wonder whether the kick off time might be brought forward an hour to avoid a possible repeat of the embarrassing floodlight failure that 'plagued' the Fourth Round tie with Walsall Wood: https://www.tringathletic.co.uk/news/fa-vase-5th-round-vs-bury-afc--3pm-saturday-11th-february-2759306.html
