The Supporters Club will be arranging transport for the first FA Vase game but further details will have to wait until we know our opponents, which will hopefully be on Saturday 4th September.
Both draws could have been easier.
ReplyDeleteYou'd like to think we'll beat Wigan RP at home and with a bit of luck Nostell will sort out St Helens. Apart from really not liking St Helens, Miners Welfares are usually fun places to visit! Mossley at home after that would be nice.
The Vase seems especially tough but it's our own fault for not doing the business last season.
