BUILDBASE FA VASE SEMI-FINAL LINE UP

The Road To Wembley in the Buildbase FA Vase is down to just four teams and one thing that is certain is that a new name will be etched on the famous trophy as none of the remaining teams have won the competition before. 

BITTON AFC are currently in seventh placed in the Toolstation Western League Premier Division. The South Gloucestershire club's best run in the FA Vase prior to this season was in 2003/04 and 08/09 when they reached the fifth round losing to Colne and Glossop North End. They have also reached the fourth round in 04/05, 07/08, 10/11, 11/12 and 12/13.  

CONSETT AFC are currently in sixth placed in the Ebac Northern League Division One - their best ever run came in 2007/08 when they lost a famous game at Merstham by the scoreline of 4-5. 

HEBBURN TOWN are in third place of the Ebac Northern League Division One. They reached the fifth round last season where they were knocked out by fellow Northern League side West Auckland Town. 

CORINTHIAN FC are based close to the village of Hartley in Kent which is located in between Dartford and Chatham. Back in 1987/88 they got to the fifth round losing to Clevedon Town. They are currently in third place of the Southern Counties East Premier Division with two games in hand over Chatham Town and Beckenham Town who are the teams above them. 

The dates for the semi-final games are below - the second legs will both be played in the North-East with roughly 18 miles between Consett's Belle View Stadium in County Durham and the Hebburn Sports & Social ground in Tyne and Wear.
