FA VASE - DRAW UPDATE

The draw for the Fourth Round of the FA Vase has been made today and with the competition going national there are some long trips to be made for some clubs on the road to Wembley.

Ampthill Town have been given an away tie at either Oadby Town or Tipton Town who replay on Wednesday evening.

Royston Town travel down to the Dorset coast to play Bournemouth FC of the Sydenham's Wessex League.

The remaining Essex Senior League sides Bethnal Green United, Enfield 1893 FC and possibly Southend Manor (subject to a replay win) have all been given away games. United travel to Hellenic Division One (West) side Old Woodstock Town whilst 1893 go to Shortwood United of the Hellenic Premier. If Southend Manor win their replay they have a tough looking trip to Gresley of the Midland Alliance League.

Some mammoth journeys are in the draw too.. none more so than West Auckland Town's trip to Bitton AFC of the Western League. The Northern League side will face a round trip of approximately 540 miles from Darlington Road to Bath Road and back again!

Holder's Whitley Bay welcome Combined Counties side South Park to Hillheads Park. The Reigate based side will be on the road for a longer trip of around 600+ miles combined.

The winners of the Hanworth Villa v Herne Bay replay also face a long trip up North as they have been drawn against Newcastle Benfield.

The games are due to be played on the weekend of Saturday 21st January 2012.
