BUILDBASE FA TROPHY FIFTH ROUND GAMES TOMORROW

BUILDBASE FA TROPHY FIFTH ROUND

York City v Morpeth Town

Tonbridge Angels v Bromley

Needham Market v Dartford

Stourbridge v Solihull Moors

Dagenham & Redbridge v Spennymoor Town

FC Halifax Town v Notts County 

Wrexham v Boreham Wood 

Stockport County v Cheshunt 

It's also a big weekend in The Buildbase FA Trophy as the Fifth Round games take place. Four Step Three sides are left with Morpeth Town (FA Vase winners in 2016) travelling to York City, Needham Market at home to Darford, Stourbridge at home to Solihull Moors and Cheshunt away at Vanarama National League leader's Stockport County. 

The Ambers last game was their 1-0 home victory over Leatherhead last weekend played in front of 287 at Theobalds Lane - County showed their strength by coming back from 0-2 to draw 2-2 against title rival's Chesterfield on Tuesday evening in front of an incredible attendance of 10,236 people. 

They will be a slightly smaller crowd tomorrow at Edgeley Park - There have been two FA Trophy games played so far this season against Grimsby Town (crowd 2,735 with 205 away fans) and Larkhall Athletic (3,514 and 169) - Will the Isthmian Premier Division side take more fans tomorrow and could they cause an upset? 

Lots of people have said the FA Trophy has been so called 'downgraded' by non-league's top teams in recent years with the advent of 2 up/2down from the football league but with County (1st), FC Halifax Town (3rd), Bromley (4th), Boreham Wood (5th), Solihull Moors (6th), Wrexham (7th) Notts County (8th) and Dag & Red (10th) all involved this clearly is not the case this year!
