BEVERLEY TOWN v NORTHWICH VICS
EMIRATES FA CUP EXTRA PRELIMINARY ROUND
SUNDAY 9th AUGUST 3.00pm
Vics make the long journey along the M62 eastwards on SUNDAY to take on Beverley Town FC in the Extra Preliminary Round of the FA Cup. Beverley Town are members of the Northern Premier League East ( step 4 ) after they gained promotion through the playoffs last season.
Beverley have been in existence since 1902 but only joined the League system in 2000 when they reformed to play in the Humber premier League. Since then, they have made steady progress through the system culminating in their promotion last season.
Their appearance in the 2024 FA Cup was their first for 102 years but unfortunately lost 3 - 2 against Whitley Bay Fc .
Their competitive season hasn't started yet so the FA cup tie will be their first competitive match though they have gained a series of decent results in pre-season including a 2 all draw against Winterton Rangers whom we played in the FA Vase last season.
Vics will be looking to get back on the goal scoring trail after two successive 0-0 draws in the League, despite dominating both matches , so let s get over to Beverley and cheer the lads on.
