Newton Aycliffe FC’s reward for victory over Worksop Town in the Buildbase FA Vase is a home tie against Morpeth Town this weekend.
The Highwaymen are the current holders having won last season’s competition at Wembley in May.
The Third Round tie will take place at Moore Lane on Saturday (December 3) with a 3pm kick-off.
Aycliffe beat Morpeth three times last season, putting them out of the FA Cup and winning both league games.
However, their only encounter so far this season saw Morpeth put five goals past the Aycliffe defence.
Fortunately Aycliffe’s form has improved since then, so this Saturday’s tie looks as though it will be an exciting game.
Once again the club is hoping that Newtonians will turn out to support the team.
