The second round tie in the Buildbase FA Vase sees Terry Shrieves take his Irish outfit to a side who have won each one of their nine league fixtures this campaign. Wroxham, who play at Trafford Park, are nicknamed the Yachtsmen and play on the Norfolk Broads. Their current squad includes Grant Holt, the former Norwich City and Nottingham Forest striker, who appeared nine times this season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rhodes 222 Posted November 3, 2020 Author Share Posted November 3, 2020 Another announcement from the blazers at the FA, they state the obvious that 'no FA Vase ties will be played in lockdown' however there is no reason why the competition can't resume shortly afterwards is there, even on Saturday 5 December: The FA has confirmed that the 2020/21 FA Trophy & FA Vase have been 'suspended until further notice'. No Trophy or Vase ties will be played in lockdown. It 'remains the FA's intention to complete the Trophy & Vase with all clubs having the opportunity to play their fixtures'.

Rhodes 222 Posted November 14, 2020 Author Share Posted November 14, 2020 If the FA Vase Second Round ties do hopefully go ahead over the weekend of 5/6 December it will only be a week later than originally scheduled so no real harm done.

Rhodes 222 Posted November 15, 2020 Author Share Posted November 15, 2020 Only one SSML Club drawn at home in the Second Round, what's going on: Stanway Rovers v Ampthill Town Ilford v Colney Heath Wroxham v Milton Keynes Irish North Greenford United v Walsham Le Willows Lancing v Edgware Town Mildenhall Town v Leighton Town Stowmarket Town v Eynesbury Rovers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rhodes 222 Posted November 15, 2020 Author Share Posted November 15, 2020 This isn't going to be a walk in the park for Eynesbury Rovers is it against Eastern Counties League Premier Division Stowmarket Town, they reached the Fifth Round last season winning at Colney Heath along the way: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rhodes 222 Posted November 15, 2020 Author Share Posted November 15, 2020 1 hour ago, Rhodes said: Lancing v Edgware Town Edgware Town have never progressed beyond the Fifth Round of the FA Vase when reaching that stage just the once in 1991/92 infact the Club have surprisingly only been beyond the Third Round twice before, this could well be their season to reach the latter stages: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rhodes 222 Posted November 18, 2020 Author Share Posted November 18, 2020 On 15/11/2020 at 20:18, Rhodes said: Mildenhall Town v Leighton Town What odds could you have got at Ladbrokes, William Hill or Coral for Leighton Town to meet Eastern Counties League Premier Division Mildenhall Town again in the FA Vase, the sides met in the FA Cup First Qualifying Round earlier this season at Bell Close with Leighton Town running out comfortable 4-0 winners with goals from Archie McClelland, Ben Pattie, Louie Collier and substiture Ashton Campbell, see match report and programme. I gather Recreation Way is quite a nice little ground and Joe Sweeney will be looking forward to taking his men there: https://www.leightontownfc.co.uk/teams/11587/match-centre/0-4914959/report https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/files.pitchero.com%2Fclubs%2F3144%2FSumjrYvyTxlOXJNIE8wB_TT+vs+Mildenhall.pdf Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They reached this round with wins over Hoddesden Town 5-1 and Sheringham 1-0. We at the moment are the joint 2nd top scorers in the cup this season with 14 goals with wins over Chalvey Sports 5-1, Oxhey Jets 3-1 and Sandhurst Town 6-2. Assistant Manager Gary Brown's thoughts ahead of the game. What a strange season it's been stop, start, but finally there's light at the end of the tunnel with a massive FA Vase game to kick the season back off. We have equalled the furthest the club has got in this great competion and playing some great football along the way. The boys will be ready for the game no doubt and with this young squad, if they turn up and play like they can they will be a match for anyone in the competition. Walsham will be a great test for us and I'm sure they will be up for the game too and let's hope its a good match. We have a fully fit side to chose from which we haven't had for the last month which is great for us because it gives us loads of options all over the park. Its a good distraction from the league and gives us a chance to showcase our young talent. We know Walsham are going to be a good test but if we play like we can I have total confidence we will get the result. Win, lose or draw, its nice for football to be back in these hard times, so let's enjoy it while we can. We wish our opponents a safe journey and good luck for the rest of the season in their League.

agamemnon3 28 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 There are suggestions, (albeit rather confused ones), on another forum that Mildenhall Town have withdrawn from the FA Vase. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Joes 2 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Yep, they have pulled out of the vase. No game for us, worrying times ahead I think. Government pushing it to the fa, fa pushing it to local leagues, and local leagues not knowing what to do for the best. Unless we get firm leadership and some direction from the actual fa on what we can and can't do, who knows what is going to happen this season. Leighton have told the league that we are happy to play league games with the current regulations, but I know of 5 clubs that will be telling the league they won't be happy to play when they have there meeting tomorrow night.

Agamemnon3 - Thanks, Karen hadn't mentioned anything and must have known: Mildenhall Town pulled out of the FA Vase (suffolknews.co.uk) Mildenhall Town have been withdrawn from this season's Buildbase FA Vase The Thurlow Nunn League Premier Division outfit had been due to host Leighton Town in the second round proper on Saturday. However, after taking into consideration the severe impact of Tier 2 restrictions, the club's hierarchy has opted to pull out of the national competition. Mildenhall are also among a number of Premier Division sides that will not be playing league matches for the time being, with their next scheduled fixture at home against Haverhill Rovers on January 2. Chairman Bill Flynn said: "There is lots to consider with the viability of games going ahead in the near future, and we decided that the viability was not there. We considered the pros and cons of the situation, and financial hardship was not a price worth paying to stagger on through this blighted season at the moment."
