However,
several teams from Step 4 have gone out of the world`s biggest cup competition
at its earliest stage.
BetVictor
Northern Premier League Division One North West side Kendal Town not only bowed
out to Toolstation Northern Counties East League Premier Division outfit Hemsworth
Miners Welfare 4-0 but it was on their own Parkside patch!
Jason
Yates and Luke Danville in the first half and Adam Knight and Jordan Davis in
the second did the damage to knock the Mintcakes out.
Kendal`s
league rivals Clitheroe were also beaten at by lower league opposition in
Hallmark Security League Premier Division 1874 Northwich.
Matt
Woolley gave the visitors an early 6th minute lead which Terry
Cummings cancelled out on the hour-mark, only for Jake Parker to win it for 1874
just 10 minutes later.
Worksop
Town, promoted to the NPL Division One South East, also bowed out at home 2-1
to Step 6 but ambitious United Counties League Division One outfit Melton Town,
for whom Kadeem Price and Jordan Lever bagged last-gasp goals after the Tigers had
led from the 2nd minute through Craig Mitchell.
Worksop`s
new league rivals Carlton Town bowed out 3-2 at Northern Counties East Premier
side Barton Town, whose Reece Moody bagged a brace.
Loughborough
University, who have started well after being switched to the UCL from the
Total Motion Midland League, knocked out last season`s former rivals and now NPL
Division One South East visitors Ilkeston Town 3-1.
The
Robins, who had to endure a late change of manager, were eventually undone by
two Kelechi Akpobire penalties.
United
Counties League champions Daventry Town can concentrate on survival in the
Southern League Division One Central now after losing 3-1 to Midland League
Premier hosts Boldmere St Michaels Ross Harris with Dav`s reply.
Barnstaple
Town, who received a reprieve from dropping out of the Southern League Division
One South at the end of last season, were beaten 2-0 at Western League Premier
Division where Barum would have ended up side Exmouth Town, whose Aaron
Denny and Jordan Harris were on the mark.
And,
although not particularly an `upset`, it wasn`t that long ago that Harrogate
Railway featured live on TV in the FA Cup.
But
the now-Northern Counties East League Division One side bowed out at the earliest
stage to Ebac Northern League First Division visitors Whickham.
The
scoreline at Station View? A very sad 10-1 to the north east outfit
Carl
Finnigan scored four, Matty Pattison completed his hat-trick late on, while Sam
Hedley, Kelvin Thear and Dale Burrell also got in on the scoresheet. |
