It’s all change on the ‘Road to Wembley’ armchair special has Oadby Town bit the dust on Saturday losing 3-1 to Solihull Moors so they are my new team. I know nothing about Solihull Moors other than seeing their name pop up from time to time on result shows. They play in the National League North two promotions away from the Football League.
They will have to wait until after the replay between Holbeach United or Worcester City to see who they will be playing. Why the need for replays is beyond me just finish the game on the day like in the Welsh Cup.
My fate has been tied to Oadby since the opening game of the competition when they beat my chosen team Quorn FC but will pocket around £5,000 for their three wins. Very helpful for football clubs this end of the Football pyramid showing why a good cup run can be all so important.
Looking at some of the other fixtures one that caught my eye was Oxford City who play in the National League South who have six Spanish players in there team brought in my head coach Enrique Guillen. They were in the hat after a win and their reward was an away fixture against Bognor Regis Town.
Road so far …
