Shots At Home In Trophy

Last updated : 14 January 2008 By Stray Shots Team

For the first time this season The Shots have been drawn at home in an FA competition and will entertain either Braintree Town or Workington at the Recreation Ground in the last 16 of the Trophy.

Both Braintree and Workington currently hold mid-table positions in the Blue Square South/North divisons and are set to replay their tie on Tuesday evening following Saturday's original fixture finishing in a one-all draw.

The replay may be in doubt however with the current poor weather and Workington Club Secretary Steve Durham has already advised Braintree officials that it rained all day on Sunday in Workington and with more of the same forecast for Monday and Tuesday Workington have provisionally arranged a pitch inspection on Monday evening with a view to reaching an early decision.

If this replay was subject to a postponement, the new date for the replay would then be Tuesday, 22 January.

Full draw:

Ebbsfleet United v Weymouth / Kidderminster Harriers
Burton Albion v Histon / Cambridge United
Aldershot Town v Braintree Town / Workington
Farsley Celtic / Alfreton Town v York City / Grays Athletic
Stafford Rangers v Tamworth
Crawley Town v Droylsden
AFC Wimbledon v Torquay United
Bishop's Stortford / Halifax Town v Rushden & Diamonds
