FA Cup Journey Begins For Blues

Whitby Town will be hoping to emulate last season's heroics when they enter this season's FA Cup on Saturday.

The Blues travel to Lancashire side Mossley, from the NPL West, one division below Nathan Haslam's men.

Town reached the First Round proper, last time around, for the first time in 20 years. They lost at League One Bristol Rovers.

They are hoping to end a run of three winless matches in the FA Cup First Qualifying Round tie.

Town drew 0-0 with FC United of Manchester, before a 3-2 home defeat against promotion favourites Macclesfield and a 2-0 loss at Stocktown Town, on Monday.

If the match finishes as a draw, the replay will be at the Towbar Express Stadium, on Tuesday.

Kick-off on Saturday, is 3.00pm, with full commentary on This Is The Coast Extra from just before.
